Re: [ARSCLIST] Anyone used the Ion/Alesis USB Tape2PC Cassette decks?

[Miss Q <agentramona@xxxxxxxxx>]

No. I have one, and I don't hear the difference between that and plugging
into the microphone port with a shielded cable.

I'm using it to digitize loud rock shows I recorded with a cheap handheld
recorder fifteen years ago though, so the source tapes are pretty bad too.

I haven't used anything to clean up the audio.
