USING A CASSETTE USING VHS/CAMCORDER DIRECT WITH MICROPHONE BACK TO THE CONTEST
	HOW DO I PUT MY VOICE ON THE COMPUTER? Fig 1.1 DUAL MINI-JACK CABLE      Here are three basic ways to get your voice into a .wav, or other sound file. CASSETTE RECORDER      Record your voice on a cassette tape, using either a microphone, or the condenser mic that comes on some cassette players. Plug one end of a dual mini-jack cable (FIG 1.1) into the "headphones" jack of your recorder, and the other to the jack on your computer's sound card. (Read the documentation that comes with your sound card.) Then play your tape and sample your sound file, using "Sound Recorder" from Windows 95, or something like Goldwave. You may have to fiddle with the volume to get the best recording. Fig 1.2 RCA STEREO TO MINI-JACK CAMCORDER/VHS TAPE/VCR      Get a good recording of yourself (with audio, natch) on VHS or Hi-8 tape. Connect two RCA plugs to your VCR or camcorder audio "OUT", and connect it to your sound card with an RCA Stereo to mini-jack cable (FIG 1.2). Play your tape, adjusting the volume as needed. Sample your sound with your favorite software (See "Cassette Recorder").
	MICROPHONE TO SOUND CARD      You can try plugging a microphone directly into your soundcard. This takes the least amount of work, but the volume is often so weak that you can't hear it. You'll have to boost the volume of your sound file with special software, like Goldwave. There are other ways of putting your voice into a sound file, but if you already know them, you don't need this page <G> <<BACK TO THE VOICE CONTEST
