Re: Overwhelming BUzz while recording tapes to mp3

Steve! Thanks so much for the specific answer! That solved the problem for the Alesis tape deck player (USB tape to computer archiver), but the little "tape express" by ion audio is still having the major distortion and slow playback.

Re: Overwhelming BUzz while recording tapes to mp3

EZ recorder allows me to hear the tape player. It is the software that came with the little player to convert tapes to mp3.

Re: Overwhelming BUzz while recording tapes to mp3

Cleaning up recordings

How do I clean up a recording I converted from an old cassette tape? There is a lot of fuzz just because of the tape, not the software. Walk me through like I'm 4 years old, please. Thank you!

How to create tracks in the live recording?

How do I split the recording I have done after I am finished into tracks (like song tracks on a cd)? It is too long for one cd and I need for it to be in tracks for better navigation once cds of it are burned.
