CD Player with Atari 800 XL ?
Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2005 1:49 pm
I've got an MSX computer with tape recorder. For the MSX, every tape recorder with standard headphone/ microphone connector is is suitable to be used as a data recorder. To make a backup of my old tape games, I connected a tape recorder to my PC and recorded all thouse beep sounds, using a WAV-recorder software. Then I saved these audio tracks on a CD-R. As every CD player has got a standard headphone connector, I can connect my CD player to my MSX as if it was a tape recorder - and it works! Of course it still takes up to 10 minutes to load a game, but at least I have got perfect backups that will never lose their quality, and 10-12 games fit on one CD.
I would like to do the same with Atari XL/XE tapes, but I have no idea how to connect a CD player to the tape port of my Atari. Any ideas anyone?
