Re: [ARSCLIST] Cassette obsolescence
Hi Richard,
Can you explain why it wouldn't be worth digitising cassette to 96/24? We
have some music tracks on cassette that we are currently capturing at this
sample rate.
Anyway, transferring them now using the best available cassette
machines makes sense. I would suggest either 44.1/16 or 48/16 is more
than adequate. I'm doing a project now that may grow where we're
doing 44.1/16 transfers to live on a file system and then doing MP3s
at 64 kb/s for access of oral histories.
