Hi,

I've heard often that when recording or editing a lecture presentation with NO MUSIC that it is best to record in Mono or to convert to Mono if in stereo to significantly reduce the file size. Is this true??? It sounds right to me. . .

. . .but when I convert to Mono from Stereo I can physically see the file convert from the left and right channel to a just a single channel but the resulting file size remains the same. The way I do this is by using the Edit tab on Audition 1.0 and then going to "Convert Sample Type" and picking Mono. Is there something else I should be picking as well to get the reduction in file size I seek?

thanks,

joseph
