How to Convert 4 Track Cassette Recordings to Logic

Curious how to covert old 4 track cassettes to digital using Logic? Stumbling across some old 4 track cassettes, I decided to covert them to digital using Logic so I can use these ideas on new compositions. This video demonstrates not only how to do the conversion process but also best practices for connecting an old 4 track reorder to a modern audio interface. I cover the challenges of fixing tape hiss and removing noise, as well as a retrospective on 4 track recording back in the late 80s.

I used a Yamaha MT1X 4 track with unbalanced RCA to 1/4 cables to capture to individual tracks 1 thru 4 as well as the L & R stereo mix. I used a MOTU 8 Pre feeding a UA Apollo Twin X via ADAT.
