Radio Shack has software that will take input from a tape player and convert taped music to a format that can then be wrote to a CD. The output of the tape player headphone connection is fed into the computer in a fashion that I don't don't about yet.

Does anyone have experience with this? Is it any good? Is there some sound degradation? Is ther a better way to get all that great taped steel music to a CD?

Leroy,

This topic has been discussed here at length. Here's the most recent thread . There are links included in the thread to some good references. I'm also recording my old LP's to CD.

You'll find more threads if you use the search tool above... search the Computer message board for "vinyl".

The short and skinny of it is that most if not all PC's and Laptops have a generic Microsoft music application program which can record music into the PC or Laptop as WAVE files. As long as you set the WAVE file recording preference to 44.1 KHZ every CD recorder software thats out there can and will convert to CD quality recordings, on a CD of course.

it's a jungle out there....
