440 Forums _ Audio Melting Pot _ From Cassette To My Mac

Posted by: add9 Mon 7 Apr 2003, 07:58

Ooops ! Just saw another thread with the same question, ...sort of.

My question is how to connect, or more right said , get the sounds on the cassette from my Portastudio over to my G4 through the MOTU..?
I cleaned the cellar yesterday and found my old tapes....

What sort of audio ouputs are on the Portastudio?

You should probably find the right sort of cable on this page.

The Portastudio is a Tascam 488 MK II. I haven't used it for years, but I would like to use it for transforming the old tapes over to the harddisk.
Looks like a dual RCA cable from the Tascam, and a straight jack cable to the MOTU. I hope to be able record and edit the old songs in Logic. I'll go cable shopping today

Thanks, I'll give it a try
