Microcassette to Audio CD conversion service

Microcassette to CD conversion is a great service from APM Studio. No matter what kind, quality or brand a magnetic tape is, it will lose data in some years. That's why it's definitely worth transferring microcassettes to digital format: Compact Disc or mp3 files.

Music CDs are more reliable than any other audio format that ever existed, the quality of audio on CDs does not deteriorate over time, and copies made will sound the same as the original master disc.

A Bit of History

The first microcassette recorder and the tape itself were introduced in 1969.

A microcassette is a smaller compact audio cassette format, but it uses the same kind of tape. The original standard microcassette, offers 30 minutes of recording per side. Both sides can be recorded, i.e. the cassettes have two sides. Like standard audio cassettes, there are microcassettes with different amounts of tape and thus different recording time capacities. Dictaphones and answering machines represent the most common uses of microcassettes. However, microcassettes also are used as a medium for computer data storage and for recording music.

We will transfer your microcassettes to the perfect Audio CD playable on any PC or commercial CD player. Audio quality is increased during the process of transfer and Compact Disc is more reliable and last for decades without any sign of deterioration. We can transfer your microcassettes into the MP3 audio files as well.

To ensure the best quality it is recommended that only up to 60 minutes of audio per Audio CD be recorded. We can determine the amount of CDs required and can certainly transfer to additional Audio CDs the full content of your microcassettes. The price of each additional Audio CD is $8.00.
