Re: [IRCA] transferring recordings from cassettes to digital media

["CHARLES HUTTON" <charlesh3@xxxxxxx>]

That's where Excel or Access take over for me. One nice thing about file 
based recordings is that - unlike the recorders of yesteryear - it's easy to 
find a specific point in the recording. Gone are the days of an arbitrarty 
meter reading that meant one thing on your reel to reel and something else 
on your casette recorder.

Result: I just enter into Excel the hours:minutes:seconds of each segment in 
the clip. No need to actually make a little file for each segment. 
Everything is easy to find.
