The digitization of audio tapes / Joe Iraci, Richard Hess and Kimberley Flak ; revised by Joe Iraci.: CH57-3/1-30-2020E-PDF

"Many archives and heritage institutions possess audiotapes that are the only record of culturally significant information. Unfortunately, these analog audio storage formats have a finite technology lifetime. If the information is to remain accessible, it must be migrated to new technology. This Technical Bulletin provides information and procedures for digitizing cassettes and reel-to-reel tapes. It is intended to assist small to mid-size heritage institutions that lack the funds for professional digitization. Note that the procedures discussed herein are intended primarily for oral history collections; they will not capture all the fine details present in high-fidelity recordings"--Abstract, page [1].
