How to Digitize Cassettes

Something for you audio / computer nerds out there – How to digitize cassette tapes.

“Now that tape decks have all but disappeared from car stereos and Walkmans are a thing of the past, there’s really no other way to listen to cassettes, forgotten or otherwise. You invested big bucks in these things, so why not get your money’s worth? Here’s how to bring your tapes into the digital age.”

Or skip all that and install the Plus Deck Cassette Converter in a spare 5.25″ bay.

    Or you could save yourself $125 and go buy a walkman off the clearance rack and use the input jack in a PC.

    Seth, I’ve wanted to make a CD from all the demo tapes I recieved while doing The Crucial Times. And I’ve really been wanting to make a bootleg CD that was called One Step Forward, Two Steps Back with the unreleased demos by The Evicted and Tickle Watson. I don’t know when I’d have the money to buy the equipment. These two demo are amazing and only like 10 people have ever heard them.

    I have no need to digitize the first DcTalk album.

    yeah, alex is right. plus, these would still just have that crummy cassette level sound, so, really, who cares?

    If you have some real quality rare stuff you should take it to a recording studio. Lots of small project sudios will do conversions. If you in a big city you could probly find a place that does conversions exclusivly. They can transfer your audio and leave out all that cassette noise.
