marineamtracer Posted December 24, 2009 Share #1 Posted December 24, 2009 I have three reel to reel audio tapes from a Vietnam LRRP vet and I was wondering if anyone else has ever had these transfered to CD? Near as I can tell they are in good condition but is there anything I should know about what to look for in a business to trust with handling them? With my luck they probably don't have anything interesting but you never know. Thanks! Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Reel to reel tapes are a pretty straight forward thing to copy to CD, but old audio tape can be quite fragile, much more so than say old movie film. However, most people who have and work with reel-to-reel players know how to handle tape so that should not be a problem: you might ask if they do tape splicing so that if it does break, they know how to fix it.

marineamtracer Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share #3 Posted December 24, 2009 Excellent I never would have thought to ask if they did splicing. Makes sense though. Thanks for the help! Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
