Re: [Avid-L2] Audio Cassette Ingestion

 

trick question? how about getting a stereo rca-to-1/8" (or 1/8" to 1/8" stereo cable, depending on your tape deck) and patch from your cassette deck right into the mac pro and use quicktime to record?

I have box full of regular old-school audio cassettes, the kind you used to put in your Walkman or make mix tapes with, and I need to digitize them. But I don't have ProTools and I've got a MacPro 17" laptop and MC 8.3, etc., etc. I've got a mixer, but no other I/O. Does anyone have an efficient clever way to digitize these audio cassettes directly into the computer (not necessarily directly into MC), preferably at 24 bit?

This may be a pie-in-the-sky question, but I don't want to have to spend hundreds of dollars at Chace or some other place setting up and digitizing these cassettes.

Many thanks,
