How to Record Sermons for Your Church
I take the CD home and use GoldWave to rip it and save it as a WAV file, which I edit with CoolEdit (bought out by Adobe) and convert to RealMedia & Windows Media using their free compilers. From the time I get home until the files are on site is around 30 minutes, depending on editing time.
I take the tape home, play it from a boombox into my PC's audio card line-in, recording with a copy of Soundforge Studio (not the $600 one, but a cheaper/limited version). I edit with that and/or with Goldwave, save a copy as .wav, then convert to .mp3. Use 2 utils to get the ID tags as I want, then upload to the webserver and link it in. At that point our transcription company folk transcribe the sermon from the MP3 and send me a .doc file. Volunteers proof-read it, then I post it. I have a fair amount more discussion on all this in our webminfaq, so check there if you are interested in this topic. Hope it's helpful. http://www.centralpc.org/admin/webminfaq.htm#create_audio http://www.centralpc.org/admin/webminfaq.htm#create_transcripts http://www.centralpc.org/admin/webminfaq.htm#sermons http://www.centralpc.org/admin/webminfaq.htm#trans_audio |
