Default audio on the computer question

I have a tape of a radio interview that I would like to put on my pc.

I have an output jack for headphones on the cassette player and a microphone jack in the pc.

Does anyone know if that and a cable is all I need?

Thanks

ed

I'd say so Ed... you are using a Windows OS?

XP definitely has a sound recorder built in... it was part of their Sales Pitch..media at home and all that jazz.

That will get you a .wav file. Not compressed a lot, so will be a large file.
