How To Record Audio Cassette To CD On A Computer

About a decade ago, cassette tapes were considered very important and used on a regular basis. Many music lovers still own a large collection of audio tapes and want to transfer it to CD. In the market, equipment is available to transfer audiocassette to CD but they cost a great deal of money. However, there is an inexpensive and easy way to record audio cassettes to CDs. In this article, you are going to read a very simple way to record audio tapes to CDs. This method saves your time as well as money. Follow the instructions below to carry out the conversion.

First off, you need to have a computer and a reliable internet connection. Next, you have to download and install a good recording software application off the Internet. The software should be full version.

Next, you should connect the cassette player “out” right and left into the stereo amplifier right and left. Now, insert a cassette into the tape player and push play to test the connection. Do not forget to set the stereo to “Tape”.

Connect the RCA plugs of the stereo cable to “out” right and left on the amplifier. Connect the 3.5 stereo jacks to the mini jack of the computer. You need to make use of the “input” connection instead of the earphone connector.

Click on the recording software icon on the desktop to launch the app. Once it is open, your next move is to start recording. Start the cassette once the PC has started off recording. If you need to record each sound track one by one, then you need to stop recording after each track and repeat the same procedure to record all tracks. After recording all the tracks, click on the “Stop” button on the software to stop recording.

At the start of the recording, drag and highlight one sec of silence and press the delete button on the keyboard. Then do the same at the end of recording.

Now, save the recording on your computer in any drive you like. For ease, you can save the files on the desktop. Later on, you can move or copy these files to any place you want.

So, this was a simple procedure to convert analog signals into digital. Now, we are going to explain how you can transfer this recording onto a CD. This is very easy.

You need to get a CD Writer in order to burn the recorded files onto a CD. Insert a blank CD (CDR) into the CD burner and then use the burning software to write all the files onto the disk. Typically, the burning process takes a couple of minutes. However, if you are writing the files onto a DVD, it can take about 30 minutes to completely write the entire set of tracks.

When the burning process is completed, take out the disk from the CD writer and insert it into a CD player to check if it is playing. That is all.
