Good Morning everybody
Today I are mostly converting old cassettes into MP3. I thought I'd need a special tape deck (like what my bro-in-law bought) but it works just fine with a lead and some free software.

I did this a couple of years ago. Put a tape deck under my monitor and just recorded away. Didn't have any specific software though. Sounds interesting. Not that I have most of the tapes anymore.

But I just popped a tape in there when I was busy doing other things.
Certainly, I missed a couple of song endings from time to time. But being able to do other things while it recorded away and occasionally rerecording a song more than made up for not having to sit around waiting for them.
