[nabs-l] VR stream notes

[Nicole B. Torcolini]

Oh, yes. I record my classes, and, time being what it is, I often don't 
upload my notes for about a week.  I've done more than 30 at once.  It takes 
a little while, but don't worry about it; just ignore the progress sound. 
Yes, you can use Windows Media Player to play them.  Go to
http://www.nch.com.au/switch/index.html
to get the audio file format converter called Switch.  You will want to 
convert the .wav files to .mp3 files because they take up a lot less space. 
Just make sure that you check the encoding settings in Switch to make sure 
that they are as high as they will go so that you do not lose any sound. 
You can email me off list if you need more instructions.

>>then use the buttons to do different things, such as convert, play, and 
>>remove. Once you have converted them, then you can rename them.  Just be 
>>careful not to remove the notes before you have saved them.

>>> Thanks!
