Thanks in advance

Re: Generating recording for VOIP
To create an audio file with Audacity, you need to "Export" (File menu).
The default export format is 16 bit WAV.
Assuming that you have already recorded or imported the audio that you want, into Audacity, you just need to set the "Project Rate" (bottom left corner of the main Audacity window) to 8000, the Export as a WAV file (File menu > Export).

Re: Generating recording for VOIP
There's more than one WAV. The common one is Microsoft.
