| We use Audacity, an easy-to-use, multi-track audio editor and recorder for Windows, macOS, GNU/Linux and other operating systems.
|-
| The 2-1/2 hour session allows for 15 minutes to set up, converting for up to 120 minutes, and 15 minutes to copy the recording to your USB drive.

| Creates an MP3 audio file and can capture stereo or monaural audio.  We recommend monaural if both tracks are identical for a smaller file size.
|-
| Only standard audio cassettes are accepted.  We do not have a reel to reel to reel player.
|-
| The software can also be used to edit the recording allowing you to remove portions, rearrange them and reduce to sections of 15 MB or less for uploading to FmailySearch Memories.
