Hi, thank you for the kind words. I've done a huge amount of recording, so know a good bit about it. It is what you feel comfortable using, that is truth, if you like Gold Wave, Sound Forge, Studio Recorder ... whatever editor you like that is what you should use. If it is a huge project, what kind e.g. stereo, mono, books, music, or, all of the above? Do the end results demand organization into segments e.g. mp3s, cds, what? :) You can speed it up if your cassette machine has a feature which speeds up play back to "dub" between cassette decks on a "dual cassette deck," using the playback machines capabilities to play the tape at a faster speed and then slowing it down using an editor on your computer.
Good luck, if you want I can help further.

As long as there won't be any loss of quality and it sounds like you know what you're talking abou; then I'll try that. I just thought if I could split and all that why not record regular tapes a faster speed to save time (I have a lot of tapes). This project scares me. Is there anything I should do to prepare these old artifacts for playing? Any other suggestions before this massive undertaking?
