Depends how you want to handle it, but you might want to check here:

If you're Mac-oriented, it's really a nice little app. Records CD quality
sound in stereo, too.

Awhile back, I recorded some voicemails for my mom (uses a PC) who has
macular degeneration, but now my long distance service is so cheap I just
phone her. I originally used .mov files which they had trouble reading, but
I switched to creating MP3 clips which played OK for them.

The little Rev audio recording interface I made is on my other computer, not
here. I'll look for it in the morning and see if I can get it to run, then
get back to you.

All the best,
Ken N.
