How about sending a new message to the list instead of replying to a current

That way you won't have to remember to change the subject line.
Remember to keep the subject line relevant to the topic, with no extraneous

Re: [Blind-Computing] resistance cable

2013-03-29 Thread inthaneelf
radio shack makes an audio impedance matching cable that will do this, you
just need to add either a set of adapters to utilize two such cables to
maintain the original stereo mix, or adaptive ends to make the mono cable
align up with and work on the stereo plugs of the headphone jack and the
computers mike jack port.

HTH,

Is there a resistance cable made to use a cd player hooked to your sound
card to transfer the music to the computer? I remember such a cable for
audio use in the late 1960s. I do not remember what impedance would be
required to match for the mic input from an ear phone output.

You can obtain such an animal at radio shack for around $5 if memory serves.
Honestly it might be better to simply rip the music from a CD using media
player or some such other program. Now if it's a LP record then you will
have to use such a cable and recording software.

Why not just use a regular 3.5mm male to male patch cord?  You put the
one end in the headphone jack of the cd player and the other in the
microphone jack of the computer.  Of course, it would be easier to
just put the cd into the computer and get the files that way, or even
to buy an external cd rom drive so that you can plug it in and do the
same.  But for direct audio transfer, I think a patch cord will work
nicely.

these are casette tapes and I do remember in the past that you needed a 
resistance cable because the output is amplified as opposed to a preamp 
output. I will be taking it from an old portable tape player

It is best to hook in to the jacks on the back of the unit as they are not
amplified for better sound quality. You go to an electronics store and tell
them you need a cable one end will plug in to a computer sound card and the
other in to a stereo tape deck.
