Hi,

I have been aware that there are higih speed audio tape duplicators,
but that's not an issue timing wise because of the mechanical
synchronization.

How can I locate a device to copy the many audio tapes I have at high
speed and possible listen to a portion and choose the best play timing
to apply onto the whole converted file?  Or is these a professional
decice that would do that?

The answer can possible be a reliable technique to do this where I
don't have to wait for the entire tape to play to get it converted to
MP3 at its normal playing speed.

Thank you.

I fear that you'll have trouble converting audiotapes (analog) to MP3s
(digital) at anything but normal speed. If you try to speed the tape,
you'll skip portions as it is being "read".

BTW, here's a cool (but pricey?) gadget that you might consider for
your task :) http://www.thinkgeek.com/pcmods/cables/6908/
