The recorded .WAV audio files are in the folder called PODCASTS

The .WAV audio files are useful as-is, but they've been recorded as Multi-Channel or Poly-Channel.  This means all of the inputs of the RØDECaster have been recorded independent of each other.

The most popular file for uploading podcasts directly to the internet is known as the Stereo Mix.  This means all of the channels have been mixed together into a 2 channel audio file.  If you want to extract this file from your multi-channel recording, you will need to continue to the next steps.

When it launches it will show you the podcasts in a list

Find your podcast

Title it and choose a custom color and then click on Save

The files save with all the different mics and channels that may or may not have audio on them.

If you want the full mix of all of the inputs, then choose Stereo Mix.wav

You can check the mix in Quicktime Player or VLC Player on the mac computer.

You can either customize the WAV file in a digital audio editor, or use can use the file as-is.

If using the computer to playback/edit your audio file, you will need turn up the USB Channel input on the RØDECaster to monitor the audio
