really, i'd just retrack on the boss, the whole point of digital is the super low noize floor, if you send a tape track, it's gonna sound like a tape....so i'd consider starting from the ground up on your new Boss....

just my 2 cents

I agree that I'll probably have to start from scratch,,but did wonder if i did just transfer the tracks from my tape to digital,,and then record her voice on the digital,will it sound strange or should I also record her voice on tape and transfer the whole shooting match over to the Boss digital and master it there,,
