If the tape encoding system is anything like the really simple FM the Apple II used, a
raw PCM file should do fine (and even MP3 might be acceptable). If you wanted to get
fancy, you could write an equivalent program to ADT for the Apple II to transcode the
audio to bits.
It's slightly-modified CUTS format, so yes, easy. And MP3s work fine.
1200 baud, 0 = 1 cycle of 1200Hz, 1 = 2 cycles of 2400Hz.
