Hi,
Thanks for the info. What kind of a sound card do I need to get for the 4
track player? What is good but affordable?
What is the most affordable software, easy to use for a blind person to do
the actual transfer so I can have either a .mp3 or .wav file on a CD?
Thanks. It sounds very complicated.
Sincerely,
Lauren

I do this kind of thing all the time. You need a sound card and an audio
patch cord that will connect between the output of the cassette machine and
the line in of the sound card. To record I prefer Goldwave as you can not
only record, but precisely edit the beginning and end of each track or
segment however you want the files to be and you can also set the volume
level to maximum without distortion and even do some noise reduction in
many cases. CDex will also record directly in mp3 format and you can turn
on normalization to set the level but there's no editing or noise reduction
features. And you'll also want Nero or other CD writing software and, of
course, a CD-R drive which come with just about every computer these days
to turn the sound files to CD. If you want audio CDs that will play on any
CD player then you'll want to record the files as .wav instead of mp3 but
the process is the same regardless of what kind of final CD you want. Mp3
files won't usually play on audio CD players but should play on DVD
players. Hope this helps.

I have a couple of old recordings that were done on a 4-track cassette
machine. Is there a way I can convert that to an audio cd?
Thank you.
