AUDIO CASSETTE-TO-DIGITAL CONVERSION FAQS
Most of the time it will say on the tape. If there’s no information on your audio cassette, the average audio cassette can record 30 – 60 minutes on each side.
After the audio cassette-to-digital conversion, you can do so many things! Here are just a couple things we’ve seen: Use the sound from your tapes in a custom slideshow or incorporate the audio into a video editing project. Create CDs of old tapes to share with family (especially fun if you’ve recorded someone speaking). Import your new mp3 files into your iTunes library and create your own personal playlist. If you create playlists in iTunes, you can use those in Spotify also!
Audio tapes are an interesting arena for digitizing because new equipment is still being made, but the best equipment is old. For example, if you are looking to transfer simple voice or other original recordings that were not recorded with much professionalism, new machines from places like Pyle or Ion – not names you know – might suffice. But if you are dealing with music or voice audio where the quality is going to matter, you need the old decks to transfer cassettes to CD. We rely almost 100% on Nakamichi and Sony high-end audio players for our cassette-to-digital conversion. Beyond that, we use high quality pre-amplifiers and cables to connect to our computer environment where we optimize the digital files.
When we digitize cassette tapes, we initially transfer to a digital .wav file with near-zero compression. At that stage, we do an initial quality check and apply software filters to optimize the audio. The primary benefit is equalizing the noise levels and anti-hiss filters. For 90% of clients, the choice is a smaller .mp3 file for ease of use on a smartphone device, or a CD. At this point in the process, we export the files to the relevant format, split and label tracks if they are music, and then produce the final audio CD, USB or cloud archive.
DIY is relatively cost-effective for audio tapes vs. other digitizing for a few reasons. The audio machines are cost-effective as long as you are somewhat flexible on quality and don’t need the content you digitize to be perfect. And because audio files are much smaller than video files, most computers and hard drives can handle the work. So when it comes to audio cassettes, getting them digital at home is legitimately achievable as long as you don’t require perfect sound. When it comes to hiring a professional audio cassette-to-digital conversion service, if it’s too cheap, we recommend finding someone else. Audio recordings have decayed a lot, and the purpose of using a professional transferring service is to get the most you can out of a challenging audio tape. If you see something really cheap, it means the cassette-tape-to-digital service is not engaging the files and just doing what you’d do at home anyway. So when it comes to audio cassette to digital services, we recommend going with the more sophisticated players so that your investment pays off.
We operate across the Northeast, so chances are that we do! With over 50 local EverPresent stores, home and office pickups, and easy shipping options, finding the most convenient cassette-to-digital conversion service near you is really straightforward.
