WNAMM09: Rediscover Your Old Cassette Tapes

US New Alesis Cassette Tape Digital Archiver turns taped recordings into WAVs and MP3s      16/01/09
Alesis has announced that TapeLink USB, a digital-archiving cassette tape deck, is available now.
This dual-cassette deck enables musicians to store their irreplaceable recordings on hard disk or flash, burn them to CD or take them on the go on their iPod. Musicians can clean up their old tape recordings of band rehearsals, performances, demos, jam sessions and song ideas.
TapeLink USB is a dubbing and playback deck that connects directly to a computer via USB. The plug-and-play USB-audio interface requires no drivers for use with most computers. TapeLink USB's CD-quality 16-bit, 44.1 kHz audio output accurately captures tape recordings for secure digital archival. Normal and high-speed dubbing modes save time when copying music, while dynamic noise-reduction circuitry and Alesis' software suite assist in cleaning up aging tapes. TapeLink USB works with metal and CrO2 tapes and contains an LED level-meter for visual level reference. Full auto stop saves irreplaceable older tapes from breaking.
TapeLink USB comes with a software suite containing three applications. EZ Tape Converter makes transfer simple and convenient, Audacity audio-editing software enables musicians to edit their audio files once they've been transferred and BIAS SoundSoap professional noise-reduction software removes hiss, room noise, rumble, hum and other background noise.
Adam Cohen, Director of Business Development, Alesis, told us, "Many musicians have stacks of tapes in their basements, from studio rough mixes to song demos and rehearsal tapes. TapeLink USB gives them a way to restore and reconnect with those old recordings."
