Old Tapes to CD

Just a thought - I've done this with the tapes I had (about 30) and they came out pretty well. All on CD now - I'm quite happy to provide copies, especially if you have tapes of concerts I don't have that you could convert to CD for me!!!

I've got over 500 JD/NO live recordings over the years, nearly all on cassette tape, and I want to put them onto CD. Anyone know of a good and reliable software package that can do this ? I have a CD burner but have so far failed to get decent recordings coming out despite original tape quality being excellent.> > > > In fact, if anyone wants to assist with this, you can have a copy of each recording (I send you tape, you burn 2 CDs, keep one and send tape/other CD back to me). Anyone ? Mail me if interested. >

Hi,

What does anyone suggest for noise reduction and improving the quality (as far as you can)?

thanks

Kevin

Thanks. Ive got cool edit pro v2.0 but I don't really know what I'm doing!

Cooledit is what I used and it works well - you can amplify quiet tracks and remove hiss quite successfully. It also is good for fading in and out. You can play around with it for a while and then save tracks when you're happy with them
