Cassette Dub to CD
$25 Transferred into a Digital Audio Workstation and normalized for an excellent archival quality CD copy.
$5 minimum charge for index points added.
$5 min charge/tape if we have search for specific parts- like if you have a 60 minute tape and you only want the part that has Grandma. Please cue the tape up to this point AND make a mark on the shell indicating this relative position. If we have to search, this takes us time! Please be explicit in your instructions.
80 minutes max on CD. If it’s over 80 minutes it won’t fit on one CD, like on a C-90 cassette if you completely filled it up. Extra charge for splitting it to a 2nd CD $10.
We make the cassette dub sound great on our Nakamichi and Tascam decks.
