The Set Up


with cassette transfers there's no need to be an audiophile because.. Vinyl is king, CDA is 2nd then cassette sadly comes in last concerning quality so my set up is simple.. i use a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS sound card, double-ended 3.5mm stereo cable and a Sony TC-WE475 cassette deck. in my opinion i think software is key for improving audio for cassette transfers.. finding a nice filter and such. as for the recording and cutting of tracks.. i use a program that came with the sound card but there's a free app called Audacity that works awesome as well.. as for the software i use for trying to improving quality.. you can use Adobe Audition which is pretty pricey, unless you know "things" ;) or the app i use "Diamond Cut Audio" which is about a 3rd of the cost of Audition and i've tried both but like DC8 a lot more.
