Howdy folks.
Kind of a newbie on here.
I just picked up an Akai M9 r2r deck in near perfect condition last night.
Works great!
Paid $10 for the thing.
I got it so I could revive old band tapes from the 80's, and hopefully put them on the PC and share some stuff.
Problem is, I have no clue how to get this stuff on the computer, and how to convert stuff to MP3 or whatever.
Do I need special hardware?
What program(s) do I use to copy it, and how do I edit a 45 minute recording into individual songs.
I realize the average 15 year old probably knows how to do this, but I do not.
Digital recording software is utterly baffling to me.
I had cakewalk, and Protools, and could not get to step 1 with that stuff.
Returned it and gave up.
Is there a simple way a bonehead can do this?
