Yeah, I would go with Audacity. It works really well.

I'll second the Audacity suggestion.  It's awesome.

One thing to work on -- try to use similar microphones and/or eliminate noise; it's a bit distracting in the currently available audiobooks when the background noise/environment changes every time the character changes.  It also might help Skyping together when recording lines (it might make some of the dialog more natural, as you'll be able to hear the other characters).

Just some suggestions.

Hm, my computer has a built in mic, and doesn't have anywhere to plug in an external one. So I'm not sure how I'd go about doing that. But, so long as no one is home and the windows are closed, there isn't much, if any, background noise in my bedroom. Even less in my basement, although there might be a slight echo from there.

In any case, I'll try to do a couple of line tests for Jordan and Aldrea, and see how they sound.

We tried using teamspeak at first. Not good enough quality, and too hard to coordinate. Just ask any of the podcasters.
Personally, I would just have everyone get the best mic they personally can. I don't want to drop down to my crappy mic, and most people don't want to spend more than $75 for a mic.

It's true. There are incredible delays, and it can become very difficult.

Lol, yeah. Why do you think there's only one episode and it took so long to get out.

When you want to delete something, you highlight it and then go to 'Edit - Delete'.
