I still do some field recording on DAT. I transfer these through a USB digital interface to pass the digital info direct to my computer (a Mac). I use a simple audio recording program, then track and process the relulting large file into individual track files with Bias Peak (Sound Forge would be the Windoze equivalent). Just the recording and tracking could probably be accomplished with the free program Audacity. Then convert the individual tracks to flac. Tag and ReplalyGain flacs with something like Foobar2000.
DAT sample rate is 48 kHz. CDs use 44.1 kHz. If you downsample the files from the DAT to 44.1, then these can also be burned to CD. If not downsampled, these can't be burned to CD. -- bephillips More than 38,243 songs on 3028 albums by 2130 artists. Mostly flac, some mp3 and aac.
