[QUOTE="avichandana20000, post: 1949104, member: 44914"] This tutorial is regarding HOW TO RECORD CASSETTES TO YOUR COMPUTER AND THEN BURN IT IN YOUR CD/DVD All most all of us have old cassettes in our home catching piles of dust and gradually dying out. So before they rest in peace revive them . There are two sections for this operation 1)HARDWARE 2)SOFTWARE First we will setup the hardware. [B]My Tape recorder[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GUaB7.jpg[/IMG] [B]Side Ports[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/beMlS.jpg[/IMG] So accordingly i have bought the cable. from a local electronics shop get this cable(just say audio cable with two jacks. Mine is a local made 45/-) [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/NaGUz.jpg[/IMG] Normally this comes with one Stereo jack with two RC cables. But we need two 3.5mm jacks instead of two RCs. So i requested the shopkeeper to cut those and join two 3.5 jacks. [B]CUT THE RC CABLES[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/DaLAf.jpg[/IMG] [B]JOINED TWO 3.5mm jacks[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/56cxx.jpg[/IMG] If you get a cable with both the sides as 3.5mm then these steps are not required. [B]Plugged in [/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/5TOHW.jpg[/IMG] Now at the back of your PC you will find the audio panel. [B]The BLUE one is the LINE-IN jack.[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/BK78c.png[/IMG] Put the other end 3.5mm jack in this BLUE port. This ends the HARDWARE SET UP. Summary: [B]1)one tape recorder 2)Audio cable 3) PC[/B] Next is the [U][B]software part[/B][/U]. First thing first. Locate speaker Icon in your system tray [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/3A6PR.png[/IMG] Right click on it and select Recording devices This window will pop up [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/1lzYC.png[/IMG] Click on Line-In and click on Set Default if it is already not set. Click on OK. Now you will need a software called AUDACITY. Download it from [B][URL="http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/"]HERE[/URL][/B] [B]After installing go to Edit then Preference. Click on it[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/CYZXb.png[/IMG] [B]In the Next Screen make the settings like this.[/B] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/JyxtB.png[/IMG] Now put the cassette in your Cassette Player and press PLAY button. Immediately press the RECORD BUTTON in AUDACITY. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/EbV7m.png[/IMG] You will see recording has started. When it ends press the STOP button from AUDACITY. Playback in AUDACITY for testing. If your cassette makes noisy sound then record that sound first. Under EFFECT MENU go to NOISE REMOVAL.Just record few seconds of that sound and it will be updated as Noise Profile. Then set the other parameters in that window. Under File Menu go to Export and choose your favourite extension. You can select each song from the recording to save it as a seperate file. For that click on Export Selection under File menu. After you extracted as per your choice Burn them on a a CD/DVD. Thank You. [/QUOTE]
