previously? If so, why not make MP3 out of the dub media? I doubt anyone will 
tell much difference 
with spoken word content in MP3 format.

I don't have convenient access to the cassettes and some of the material is 
very high quality, while other needs every bit of help it can get to maintain 
intelligibility.

The originals are still available, with everything from FT 7-1/2", to 1/4 
track mono all speeds mixed on the reel, hence the need for an intermediate for 
editing, which was half track scissors and tape, some at 15"/s to remove 
extraneous uhs and noises. Of course digital editing would make this easier, but 
also would be a temptation for even more extensive (and time consuming) editing. 
I'm trying to avoid that by using the same tapes again.
