Hi,

Is there such thing as a tape deck that can be connected to a computer through USB?

hi there if u want to transfer your tapes on to your pc
i would invest if u can in a good quality tape machine
that has controls for alining the play and record heads,
as different tapes r recorded with different head positions.
if your soundcard has a 3.5 jack socket,
then plug a mixer in to the line in socket,
and plug your tape machine in to one of your faiders,/line ins on the mixer.
hope this helps.

I would agree with the below.
as whilst yes there are tape machines with USB connections, from those I have seen, the actual decks do tend to be of rather poor quality.

Could this be accomplished with an audio interface? If so, which one would you recommend? Also, which tape deck would you recommend?

Personally I would never get one of those decks that have USB. The vintage decks have much better quality.

personally, I like the aphex in2:
http://www.aphex.com/products/in2
as it has individual level controls on each channel, plus a rather useful optical compressor, which comes in handy if you have to crank things up a bit for some quieter parts of a recording, but don't want to over do things on the louder parts.
as far as tape decks go, I personally use a marantz cp430, as it has the biost adjustment, and is a 3head machine. plus as a portable machine, it doesn't take up a lot of space when being used, and can easily be stored away, when not in use.
when I had my full studio, I did used to have a really super teac deck, which had just about any sort of adjustment one could think of, plus a wired remote. it could also work at double the normal tape speed, for making better quality recordings. but unfortunately I didn't keep a record of it's model number.

The only thing I don't like about transfering tapes to 320 k-bit mp3 is having to mess with the azimuth adjustment.

I prefer to use .flac for recordings, then make an mp3 version of them for use on things like a phone or other portable device.

The only thing I don't like about transfering tapes to 320 k-bit mp3 is having to mess with the azimuth adjustment.

personally, I like the aphex in2:
http://www.aphex.com/products/in2
as it has individual level controls on each channel, plus a rather useful optical compressor, which comes in handy if you have to crank things up a bit for some quieter parts of a recording, but don't want to over do things on the louder parts.
as far as tape decks go, I personally use a marantz cp430, as it has the biost adjustment, and is a 3head machine. plus as a portable machine, it doesn't take up a lot of space when being used, and can easily be stored away, when not in use.
when I had my full studio, I did used to have a really super teac deck, which had just about any sort of adjustment one could think of, plus a wired remote. it could also work at double the normal tape speed, for making better quality recordings. but unfortunately I didn't keep a record of it's model number.

Could this be accomplished with an audio interface? If so, which one would you recommend? Also, which tape deck would you recommend?

hi there if u want to transfer your tapes on to your pc
i would invest if u can in a good quality tape machine
that has controls for alining the play and record heads,
as different tapes r recorded with different head positions.
if your soundcard has a 3.5 jack socket,
then plug a mixer in to the line in socket,
and plug your tape machine in to one of your faiders,/line ins on the mixer.
hope this helps.

when you say "space issues", do you mean on your own machine, or are they more like band width issues?
