Here's what my brother used:

Gramofile. it's an ncurses app. Menu based, linear, easy to understand. You
record the audio, then possibly process it to remove noise that's common to
vinyl recordings (what it's for, really), and then let it detect the gaps
between songs.

My brother was doing something similar for my dad. I'll ask him what he used and send links.

I was thinking Art would have the most experience in this area, but I'll ask everyone.

My dad wants to use a computer to take all of his old open reel tapes and record them digitally (wav) and burn them to CD. I am pretty sure it's possible by playing them on his old player, through some sort of amplifier, then into the mic plug and use a program to record them.

I've never done something like this before. All I have ever used sound for is to play music on the computer... that's it. I have not a clue what to look at in the way of programs or setting it up.

Any advise, links, software suggestions, or HOWTOs would be welcome. If I can do this for him in Linux, I might be able to sell him on at least trying it.
