[QUOTE="ashp, post: 188917"] Hi there, Maybe you can help me! Ok...I just bought Roxio Boom box....I have installed the software and am trying to convert tapes and vinyl to my ipod using CD Spin Doctor and my IMAC G3 DV (graphite). When I launch CD Spin doctor it asks me to check the levels to see if the sound is ok...I think I am connecting something wrong. It said to watch to see if the lights on the sound meter thing flash...I hooked up my cassette player to my imac..audio left/right on back of cassette player and put the single pin thing into the line in (?!) on my imac. ( the one with the microphone icon). Now....in my preferences on my imac under sound > input > I have selected "xternal microphone / line in" HOWEVER the lights in the sound meter on CD spin doctor are not flashing...the only way I can get them to flash indicating that it might be working is to change the preferences on my imac and select "internal microphone / built in". WHAT am I doing wrong. Also...when I try and record something when the lights ARE flashing it is picking up sounds from the room too like if I cough or something. How do I get it to record just the music and not capture any sounds from the room? Is it because my imac is not set up for this? Or do I need a griffin imic? PLEASE tell me what the heck I am doing wrong and how to hook this up with the correct preferences etc. THANK YOU! [/QUOTE]
