If you are interested in uploading an audio file for use with a QR code, here are some suggestions. Create your audio file through Voice Memo (microphone) on your smartphone or a iPad Voice Memo app that you download from App Store. If you are using a PC, then download the free program Audacity to create your audio file. Once the file is made, then upload it to DropBox, Box.com, CX.com or Chirbit (free online tool). From there, you can get the location of the file site (or URL) and plug that into the QR Code Generator to create a QR code. This QR Code will point to the location of your audio file that is housed on the internet.
