I just got an Imac FP and would like to convert some recordings made with a hand-held microcassette recorder into the Mac. I interview family members using the recorder as part of genealogy research. My ultimate goal is to burn to a CD and send back to the family.
Is this possible? -------------------- dodger

Unfortunatly, there's no audio in anymore on Macs (anyway they weren't good enough, so)So the interface (USB will be enough) is necessary. (Steve : Shame!)
For work on PT the 24/44 24/48 work is ok, reduce the bits and bolts at the end to 16/44 The later, the better. If you work in the beginning at 16 bit, the noise level will be more noticable as you'll have less dynamics than in 20 or 24 (higher the bit, higher the dynamic, better the result). If you can stay 24/4X until the final bouncing. Just the same with saturation, especially with voices, it'll be harder to saturate at 24, you'll have headroom. -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
