02-08-19 20:21 Rob Swindell wrote to Ed Vance about Using Audacity with XP Howdy! Rob (and Mike), I looked at the Amazon link. To use it with my device to me it seems like I need to change the Headphone Jack Impedance to Line Input to use the product in Amazon's advertisement. Off the top of Ed's Head Line Input is 500 (or 600) Ohms. I have Two of the Radio Shack Transformers that have a 1000 Ohm Center- Tapped winding on one side, and a 8 Ohm winding on the other side that I've thought I might need to use even it I only used the Line Inputs on the pc to get the Audio in to Audacity by using the Headphone Output while playing a Cassette Tape. My pc is an HP Pavilion a1430n, MS XP Media Center Edition 2005. By that description I would think the Audio circuit portion would be O.K. for what I am wanting to do with it. When I've tried using Audacity to accept audio from the Headphone Jack to the pc Line Input I never have seen Audacity putting the audio into a File that I could later use to Burn it to a CD. Very Much Head Scratching going on here. (But I haven't started talking to the computer....yet). Would My Two Transformers do the same job for me as the Amazon product? TIA, 73 de Ed W9ODR . .
