Transferring analog to digital Options

[Icedudeweb]

Hi everyone-

I recently discovered how to transfer my audio cassette tape tracks to CD, and have a program (Cool Edit Pro 2.0) that can clean up the tracks by removing a lot of the hiss. My problem is, I want it to sound 'recording-studio' good. Is there any program out there that can do this? I mean, having no hiss at all, and completely transferring the analog music to a digital format.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Billy

Don't cough during the transfer with your imic! And listen out for them brand new combine harvesters going past the window...



Wouldn't it be an idea (I'm echoing Damann's advice here) to buy an inexpensive USB A/D convertor...?? i-what? Aren't we talking something with analog RCA/Phono inputs here?

I just looked at the Edirol UA1A. It looks like just the thing!

I would definitely use a line input instead of a mic in order to preserve as much of the cassette's original quality.

Then strip out the hiss as outlined in previous posts.
