I forgot about Skylook. I'm an Outlook person and provide training and support for it. I also do Outlook tip videos and LOVE to do video demo/reviews on things that integrate with Outlook. I'll have to check out Skylook and maybe do a video demo. Thanks for reminding me about it! Andrea Kalli http://www.virtualassist.net Karin – Oh, that’s right! I forgot about Skylook.

I prefer this from Pamela, because Skylook works behind Skype and Outlook whereas Pamela works "in front of" Skype - if you know what I mean.

Funny, I actually did this for the first time recently with my interview with Mari Smith at http://tinyurl.com/5z7blo Then I brought it into Audacity to clean up each of the tracks, changed them to mono, and created a single mp3 file. Worked like a charm. Honestly, I was SUPER impressed with the quality. Doing it via skype had me a bit worried, but I made sure and closed any other applications running on my pc, same with the person I was interviewing. Don't know if that made a difference but the result was really good. I was happy! Andrea Kalli http://www.productivitypodcast.com http://www.virtualassist.net Hey Jay!

Depending on your settings, it could bring up the noise floor that sometimes is inherent to the phone and Skype. I use my Mic into the mixer into my laptop via USB. Normally I do some post-processing, but not usually in the case of the Skype calls unless the Levelator is needed. @Peter,

I tried using my mic with a compressor attached...sounded odd, to say the least. Studio mic minus compressor? Or just a basic headset mic the way most folks use Skype?

I also use the free version of Switch from NCH for conversion to and from mp3/wav/wma: http://www.nch.com.au/switch/ This also allows you to convert batches of audio files. Be careful during installation that you don't select to install the trial versions of all the other software from NCH.
