Your post suggests that after ripping the analogue to hard disk, you
intend to do some cleaning up. If by this you mean you wish to do a
bit of audio restoration via software (eg. declicking), then I would
strongly recommend that you record from the original vinyl, not from
the cassette dub. The limited high frequency response of cassette
means that transients caused by clicks on the vinyl become quite
rounded, and this makes it much harder for declickers to detect them.

Thanks for that input .. I've noticed that 'automatic' de-clickers have
a hard time under these circumstances. Luckily most of the recording
were done when the vinyl was new, and there aren't many clicks - I'm
quite happy to manually clean up the few that are actually annoying
(using Acoustica and the 'interpolate' function .. seems to work pretty
well).

Most of the music is Pop/Folk etc. where clicks are not nearly as
noticeable (IME) as quiet classical passages.
