I have a bunch of audio tapes that I would love to convert into CD's.  I have a cassette player that will hook into my input on my sound card.  Now my question is....does anyone know of any software that will record my tapes then burn them onto a CD?  Thanks!

I would look for an audio ripping program.  I've got some all in one ripping stuff on my home computer that lets me rip audio and video from any source.  There should be a bunch of shareware out there, just do a search.

Like chevy said, do a search at ZDNet or MSN or where ever..there are lots and they are easy to use.  Sound like you have the equipment, just need the shareware...remember you have to record to CD-R's for the audio...not CD-RW's.  WOnt work right if you do.....

I use MusicMatch and have converted my old cassettes. The program allows you to record and also burn. I get better quality by getting them from the gnutella network tho.

Well, I just found two programs that should work.  One will record the audio (.WAV) and I have another one that does the CD burning (came with CD-burner).  When I get home, I'll give her a try.  

 

I was mainly looking for recommendations on programs to do this.  Thanks...

are these not music tapes?  If you want to record music I would suggest downloading some mp3's and making a cd from there, probably a lot easier and better quality than if you rip them from a cassette

Actually, its for one of my clients at work (side work).  He has a bunch of country tapes (old classic country - he has searched all of the MP3 sites for them already) and he wants to convert them all to CD because his new truck only has a 6 disc cd-changer.  I am tring to set him up with one of the easiest systems to do this.  

 

All of my personal music is either bought or burnt from MP3's.

Same way w/ me.  With a DSL connection and a cd burner there's pretty much no need to buy a music CD again.

 

I haven't gotten the chance to test out the software/hardware combo I have now. I can rip audio and video w/ it.  I was going to try it last night, but ran it to problems running the coax cable.

As I said before, I use Music Match to do all the things you are trying to do.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
