Re: putting cassettes on to my Mac
As I stated before you have 2 levels, mic and line in. If the mic is somethign from let's say lab tec and not let's say a shur sm58 or 81 tht requires an xlr cable or somethign from the sound profs that requres plgu in power you should be fine. Ther are no mics that don't use power. All of them require either I think it's 3 or 48 volts tha tis plugin or phantom power. Take care.

Re: putting cassettes on to my Mac
In this case the imic will not work as it does not supply power, but if you can hook the preamp up to the imic via line in, and hook the mic to fthe preamp you might get a quieter noise flor.

Re: Powering an external mic: was putting cassettes on to my Mac
Hi, I tried to post earlier, but I was reading your email in my personal email account. When reading up on how to connect my turntable to record my LPS into digital, one article mention either using a preamp or through my receiver. What I understood was that a computer doesn't have enough power to run the device by itself. So, I guess that either a preamp or using ones stereo receiver will do the trick.

Re: putting cassettes on to my Mac
Eric - your podcast helped me greatly with my ability to use Amadeus, so thanks for that, I was very confused about editing for a while, but because I was able to follow the way you used markers, I am now comfortable with the app. As for Judy's need to get the cassettes inputed in to her Mac, would it be possible to use an external USB sound card that has both a headphone socket, and mic in? In that case, could the mic in be used as a line in from the cassette player? - Andy On 3 Jun 2014, at 01:39, Eric Caron eric_ca...@mac-access.net wrote: Hi Judy, I recently updated a podcast I did showing how to digitize vinyl records using Amadeus Pro. the procedure for doing cassettes is essentially the same. I also digitized such recordings including my Grand father born in 1917 singing all kinds of songs that made it to the New York Canadian border. these types of recordings are precious to our families. You can find the podcast on applevis.com. You can use a USB tape deck or in my case I just used the earphone out on a reliable old deck. It worked well enough for my needs. You will probably need to buy a griffin imic if you go that rout as it will let you input the sound through the imic directly thrugh a usb connector into your mac. I'm pretty sure I touch on this in the podcast.

Re: putting cassettes on to my Mac
Hi Eric thank you so much for your email. Have just finished listening to your podcast which was extremely helpful. I shall look into getting the Griffin Imic and Amadeus. Many thanks.

I also digitized such recordings including my Grand father born in 1917 singing all kinds of songs that made it to the New York Canadian border. these types of recordings are precious to our families. You can find the podcast on applevis.com. You can use a USB tape deck or in my case I just used the earphone out on a reliable old deck. It worked well enough for my needs. You will probably need to buy a griffin imic if you go that rout as it will let you input the sound through the imic directly thrugh a usb connector into your mac. I'm pretty sure I touch on this in the podcast.

putting cassettes on to my Mac
