Records Cassette

I want to take a cassette recording and put it on my laptop, How can I do this?
I have a cassette recording i would like to put on my laptop, how can I achieve this without using the microphone from the laptop. Or do I have to use it anyways?
Put simply, you will need to connect your cassette player to your PC soundcard, then play the cassette whilst recording on your PC.
NB. often laptops only have a mono mic input, if this is the case, then you will need a USB soundcard.
A step-by-step guide is available at:

The recording software is the key, there are some free software downloads available at:

I have used ‘Magix Audio Cleaning Lab’ and ‘Audacity’ – Audacity is particularly popular since it is free!
If you record to WAV format, expect file sizes of around 10MB per minute, or 1MB per minute for MP3 (at 128kbps).
Once you have your digital versions of the recording on your PC, simply burn them on to a CD (Nero burning software or similar..). If you use Magix Audio Cleaning, the software will burn an audio CD for you without needing additional software (assuming you have a CD writing drive of course!)
You can also download a free PDF version of the step-by–step guide from the download page mentioned above, the guide is complete with diagrams and screen-shots.
