Sitting on a pile of old cassettes or reel-to-reel tape? Wondering how to transfer your interview with a loved one from a cassette to a computer?  This Oral History Centre workshop shows you how to turn your cassettes into high quality digital audio files. You will learn what equipment and software you need, how to set it up, and how to use it to ensure high quality conversion and preservation of your cherished oral history interviews. You will learn how to identify audio quality and describe the material and content of your analog media to ensure it is easily accessed in the future. Once you know how to digitize audio you can use your recordings for creative audio such as podcasts, digital stories, and presentations.

This workshop will be in-person at the OHC. Attendance  is limited to 8 participants.
