[QUOTE="KevinJS, post: 1722880, member: 373988"] Thanks, Sly. The inputs and outputs on the reel to reel are identical to those of a cassette deck, with the addition of a DIN plug which can replace all 4 RCA connections. The tape deck will be connected directly to the adapter. I won't be using my Akai, since it only handles tape speeds of 3¾ inch per second and 7½ per second. I have another deck which handles both of those speeds and the 1 7/8 ips that the recordings were probably made at. My decks have variable output and are 3 head machines, so real time monitoring of the recording is possible. The recordings will be uncompressed and transferred to a thumb drive for use. It has occurred to me that the solution we are looking for in this thread is for a mono mic, and I'm going to require stereo, so the USB adapter is likely the way to go. If worst comes to worst, I can always go back to the PC, but I'd really like to find a Mac solution. [/QUOTE]
