The folks that do Wikivoices (featuring myself, Mike Peel, Skenmy, and Jimmy Wales on Wikinews this evening 8pm) have a lot of experience cleaning up and editing recordings. Once you've done a couple of clean and uploads they can probably offer some really good advanced tips. -- Brian McNeil <brian.mcn...@wikinewsie.org> Wikinewsie.org
