I have a G4 and a walkman with a cassette in it.
1. I want to plug in the walkman to the mac (the microphone socket at the back?)
2. I want to play a song on the walkman.
3. I want to use some software to capture the song and turn it into a n MP3 (preferably free stuff I can download from the internet)
4. Can anyone tell me exactly what to do so that it works
Sorry for being such a wooz but really this computing thing really isn't me

thanks

Tony Goodman

Yes, you can use the microphone socket. You only need an adapter (jack 3.6 stereo through another jack 3.6 stereo).

I'll recommend Coaster to record the audiofile (aiff or sd2) and then DropMP3, based on Lame, or Ogg Drop whicj is opensource, to encode the file.

Some commercial and dedicated software can do this easily in one pass, like n2mp3 or example.
Bye.
