Recording WAV Programs to Cassette tape

[famiac]

I'm trying to record a wav cassette game backup to tape.

Can i just use the line out from my PC to play back into the famicom data recorder's input? What volume level should i use?

I'm not asking just for family basic, but for old computer programs in general. The only cassette recorder i have is the data recorder.

Thanks

If you can buy new tapes, use tape recorder - it's easier and you don't have to keep PC running. Another option is smartphone.

I was never successful using a PC, so I'm also just using cassette tapes with a generic tape recorder.

I use my old MP3 player, it has recording function through line in so its perfect.

Hah, i'm trying to make a cassette for my sharp X1.

So then you need cassette tapes after all. It doesn't work?

I'll try it out and see how it goes.

I'm having flashback-attack. Around 20 years ago we had ZX-spectrum and some random neighbor's kid from next house had also one. So we had this crazy idea to set up a pirate radio station "Sinclair FM", that would broadcast ZX software. I don't quite remember why, but the "project" was canceled

Thats a brilliant idea! Could have been used in the communist era over here in the middle of Europe, to spread digital propaganda!

Hah! Wow that'd be amazing.

By the way, as an update, i found a way to convert Sharp X1 tap files to wav using an old program and Audacity
