recording from a cassette player

billj

I have an old TEAC W-700R double cassette deck I am trying to use to send voice recordings on cassette to the software to edit and burn to CD. It has RCA plugs for output. How do I get it to play into my Compaq Presario SR1500NX xp computer in order to use the editing software.

1) Plug the LINE OUT from your Cassette deck or amplifier into the LINE IN on your soundcard (you'll need an RCA to stereo phono adaptor lead/plug) ;

2) Fire up your Sound Editor ;

3) Set your RECORDING DEVICE (in either your editor or Windows Volume Control or your Soundcard's Mixer Panel) to LINE IN ;

4) Adjust the INPUT LEVEL . . . hit RECORD ;

5) Save each file as a .WAV or convert them to .MP3.
