Inserting edited audio into power point program

Post by Julie B. » Mon Jan 09, 2012 2:35 am

Help!
I am very new at this Audacity audio editing program. I have a three-section taped interview loaded on my computer. I used Audacity successfully to edit one section today. But when I tried to export the edited material, Audacity would not allow me to do so. I had to download a program called "Lame" to be able to export it to a folder on my desktop.

OK--but now I want to insert the edited sound file into an existing power point slide program. I am unable to do so.

Does anyone know how I can convert (or re-name or whatever) my "Audacity Project File" into some format which can be added to a power point slide show?

Thank you for any help you can give me.

Julie

According to this...

... you can use any WAV sound file which means you didn't need the MP3 software. Audacity exports WAV from your open Project naturally.

File > Export > WAV (Microsoft) 16-bit PCM
