DS, the tapes I tried to flog you $10,000 for are the ones of you doing the nasty with a billy goat. That offer is still good. I have not published them on web server...yet.

Steinberg's Denoiser works really well for this type of thing. There maybe are better plugs out there, but for the stuff I've had to clean up Denoiser worked fine.

Thanks for the tip, HC. I will check that out. Does the Steinberg Denoiser come with SX or is it a separate plugin???

Basically......I would give your tape heads a bit of a clean with some Isopropyl alcohol (Dont use it on anything rubber!)
Then, you can either apply a denoiser/de-clicker. I use a VST bundle from TC Works, which includes some nice plugs for removing hiss etc.
Make sure your levels into the digital domain are nice and hot, and then, ummm......yeah, convert to MP3.
Good luck!
Edit: I have to do some tape-CD transfers too! I swapped a crate of vinyl for doing about 8 x 60min tape-CD transfers. I scored some Led Zeppelin, Doors, Jimi Hendrix, ELP, Beatles.......awesome!

That's a kick-ass swap deal you got into there, Jasedee! Good job Bro!
As far as getting the levels hot before going into the digital domain, should I run the line out of my tape deck through my Studio Projects VTB-1 Mic Pre-amp and then into my mixer? Or, is that a totally back ass, redneck idea?
THANKS FOR THE IDEAS, GENTLEMEN!!!
