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

Huum...too bad for the lack of 'in', my G4/667 Digital Audio still had one...
On the dither question...well that's another question...which has been discussed many times on the PT forum. I would agree that for music, it would be better to work with 24 bit-44.1KHz setting (as I do) and then dither to be able to burn to CD (48KHz->44.1KHz dither is known to be really bad in PT, and in general I think), but , come on, we're talking discussion recorded on a mini-cassette recorder here !... 16bit/44.1KHz is more than enough and will save you some drive space and some time (less conversion to perform when you're done). Just my humble opinion. -------------------- |
