hi . I have tried the commercial services who are mostly dodgy and/or extortionate. If I take a lead from the Phones socket on my Midi system and plug it into the Audio In socket on my Amd Athlon XP Home, can I get software that will enable me to convert the tapes ? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Yours gratefully, Art.

Audacity can record from the line in jack, and then you can edit is as well. Get
it free at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
There's also an analog recorder feature in the Microsoft Plus! Digital Media
Edition. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/plus/dme/dmehome.asp
 
My recorded Sounds now have static cling!!!

As per your previous sugestion I downloaded the Musicmatch Jukebox and
finally I can record. Thanks a billion:0) But sadly I still need
assistance, When I play the tapes, and even while recording, the sounds of
the old tapes sound great. But when I try to play back what has been
recorded, there is so much static it virtually makes many of the tunes a blur
or muffled sound. Any sugestions as to where or what I'm doing wrong & how
to fix this.

Sorry to bother you, But I'm a newbie with thousands of old OLD tunes.
 
I use Audacity - it has noise filtering; it's not the best could be, but
works decently.
All in all, try to find the "Noise Filtering/Cancelation" feature in your
software.
