7 Steps to Record Separate Audio Files on Zoom:

Step 3:

Step 4:
Record and save the meeting to your computer
Step 5:

By default, the local recordings will be placed in following directory:
Windows: C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\Zoom
Mac: /Users/[Username]/Documents/Zoom

Within the folder, open Audio Record
Step 7:
Once you're in the Audio Record folder, each persons audio track will be shown as its own file. Now with these files you can easily send it to us (or any other professional podcast editors) to save you time, and to give your audience an amazing listening experience!
