Hi!
So what is a good tapedeck that has these below features?
If i had the money i would try to find a revox b710 which has balanced jacks 
and other features.
But its one of the best studio decks you can get so it would blow my 
economy.

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.

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.

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.

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.
