Rashmi,Launch CDEX, open tools menu and find "record from analog input" and you will find a set of controls, e.g. stereo, bit rate, sample rate etc, once these are set to your satisfaction, press the record button and the recording will start.
Remember that if your tape player is connected to the line in socket of your sound card, this input must be selected in your recording device settings.
Hope this helps, Pete H.----- Original Message ----- From: "Rashmi Shah" <RASHMI.SHAH.TAGGART@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

I'm interested in the Realtek AC97 Cassettee/MP3converter and how compatible it is with JAWS etc. I've got hundreds of cassettes I want to copy onto my computer and this sounds like the ideal thing I need.Any suggestions as to where it can be purchased and any teething problemsyou had and overcame would be appreciated.

I have a cassette to MP3 converter connected to my machine via USB (with accompanying software installed). This has been in place for a number ofmonths now and has worked perfectly alongside Jaws, however after ghostingmy hard drive, I needed to re-install Jaws. When I did so, the software already in place told the now new Jaws installation to use the USB Audio Codec assigned to the cassette converter in preference to my computer's on-board sound card. This was however only the case when the cassette converter was plugged in.It was for this reason that the speech worked fine for the first couple ofdays after I copied my hard drive and re-installed Jaws from disk. This was before I re-connected the cassette converter. The re-connection promptedJaws to use the USB Audio Codec (which is not attached to any speakers) inpreference to the on-board sound card on startup. To fix the problem, I followed Norman's suggestion to actively tell Jawswhich sound card to use. Not being too familiar with the inner workings ofJaws, I asked Blazie Technical Support to talk me through the process.For anybody interested, here's what I did, step-by-step (for Windows XP):1) I opened 'Control Panel' from the Start Menu and went to 'Sounds and Audio Devices'2) I selected the 'Audio' tab to find out what my 'Sound playback Defaultdevice' was. It is a Realtek AC97 Audio.3) Then I went to the Jaws installation folder (for me, this is on the C:drive under c:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\8.0) and opened the file 'JFW.ini' using the Windows Notepad programme.4) To tell Jaws which sound card to use, I then had to scroll down to the section concerning "Synth1". This had lines beginning with "Synth1Name=","Synth1LongName=" and "Synth1Driver=". 5) I then inserted a new line after "Synth1Driver=" and before "Synth2Name=" which reads as follows: Synth1Port=<Sound Card Name>For "Sound Card Name, I inserted insert the name of my Sound Card. It nowreads: Synth1Port=Realtek AC97 AudioThis has done the trick and I am now much less flabbergasted. Once again,thanks for your help.
