Is there a way to transfer (copy) from cassette tapes to CDs? How?

Answer 1

Put simply, you will need to connect your cassette player to your PC soundcard, then play the cassette whilst recording on your PC. A step-by-step guide is available at:
http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/DIY/index.php
(follow the link to ‘Cassette to CD‘)
The recording software is the key, there are some free software downloads available at:
http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/downloads.php
I have used ‘Magix Audio Cleaning Lab’ and ‘Audacity’ – Audacity is particularly popular since it is free!
If you record to WAV format, expect file sizes of around 10MB per minute, or 1MB per minute for MP3 (at 128kbps).
Once you have your digital versions of the recording on your PC, simply burn them on to a CD (Nero burning software or similar..). If you use Magix Audio Cleaning, the software will burn an audio CD for you without needing additional software (assuming you have a CD writing drive of course!)
You will need the additional 'lame_enc.dll' file to export into MP3 - this can also be downloaded from the free software page.
You can also download a free PDF version of the step-by–step guide from the download page mentioned above, the guide is complete with diagrams and screen-shots.
Hope this helps (if you like the online guide, don't forget to 'DIGG' it....)

Answer 2

You need a sound card in your PC that will accept audio input from a cassette deck and editing software (some is available for free) that will convert the raw files to an MP3 or other digital audio format.

Once you have done that, those files can be burned to a CD. If your CD player won't play MP3's directly, be sure to specify audio CD format when burning.
