Hope you guys have some good suggestions here. I have some old cassettes of my mom from about 30 years ago and several hundred from my dad (some more recent). My mom had a "verbal" correspondence with a friend and they mailed cassette tapes back and forth instead of letters. My dad was a pastor and all his sermons are on cassettes. Anyway, both of them passed away some time ago. My siblings and I have been discussing transferring everything to digitalj to preserve this part of our family history. That way one of us could buy the equipment to do it all and then burn CD's for all the others.
I know a lot of the cassettes will be in poor condition,with some better than others. But, what would be your suggestions in terms of hardware to buy to be able to make the transfer from cassette tapes to computer, and software to do some equalization or whatever to try to improve the sound in the process of doing all this?
Thanks in advance for any input!
