HELP WANTED. Ok, I have 2 cassette tapes that I need 2 get copied 2 CD - I know that the quality wont be improved upon, and that a lot of people would say it's probably not worth the time and the effort, but these tapes have immense sentimental value, and I need some form of hard artifact now they're fast approaching 20 years old.

Which puts them in a digital format, inport them into a editing application. Cake Walk, Pro Tools, whatever, then you can eq, compress, and maximize the audio. I can do this for you, just send me a high qaulity tape. A copy not the originals! How many tapes, let me know the total minutes of the audio that needs to be reprocessed. Send me a org note, for contact info. | |

My friend has some mix tapes, continuous music recorded from the radio that he wants to put onto cd as well because the tapes are wearing out. He's got a lot of them, probably about 10. I told him I couldn't do it because Cakewalk can only record 5 minutes at a time. How do you record onto cd? Can you record a whole side of a tape in one shot? | |

Its easy just hook up a CD player to record, while you play the tape. Then I import it into pro tool. I can import audio for hours. This application, alot for independant movie scores and stuff. Another option is to just edit the digital audio into smaller parts from the CD at break point or whatever.. I'll send you my info. If he's interested just have him hit me up. | |

I use soundblaster wave studio to record to digital.
There are better programs out there, but soundblaster comes with a lot of computers. You just need a stereo line in jack and the right cables. Check this song out at:
