Nice work, I shared this video from my Community page. I hope it sends some more traffic your way. 7 videos in 7 days, very ambitious! You're already more than halfway there :)
I'm either going to try building this adapter, or maybe I'll try the Datasette mod that Adrian Black gave me some info on. It seems even easier! Thanks for sharing this info.

[@The_Last_Ninja]

I really like your videos. 7 Commodore videos in 7 days has become the highlight of my day :-) Thank you so much! Awesome piece of kit you have created here, just like the reset button is.

[@davidinark]

Don’t know how I ended up here, but am so glad I did. Great vid man!

[@neophytealpha]

Audio levels and mono/stereo can make a difference

[@vanceyboy1959]

Justin your full of surprises and a clever cookie i see.
A few skill sets there under your belt.
Don't feel bad about not getting what you wanted out to us. Appreciate what you managed to do. Interesting to watch.
Thanks for staying up so late to get that project out.That's dedication.
look forward to the next one.👌
when ya get a lemon make lemonade. who doesn't love lemonade right👍

[@performa9523]

Holy smokes that is cool. Awesome stuff sir!

[@Romanujan]

Anyone knows about some better adapter, allowing both playing, recording, and tape motor control (via REM socket)? The only ones I can find are these simple ones.

[@dymsza]

Would this work with just TAP file play out of the computer ?

[@GadgetUK164]

Happy New Year! =D

[@neophytealpha]

Basically an ADC

[@KrautRockt]

hello, a question ..where can i buy this modul or the kit ?...have a nice day and sorry for my bad english...your Krautrockt!er from germany

[@dymsza]

Also can you share a schematic of it ?

[@CommodoreComputerMuseum]

Hi, I uploaded the diagram on to my www.Facebook.com/breadboxNZ You will have to scroll down to Jan 02 2020 and download it from that post. I just uploaded the diagram to PCB Way www.pcbway.com/setinvite.aspx?inviteid=334307 and they made the the board for me.

[@TimToolman]

Nice work. Why did you choose rca over a 3.5mm socket? Either works I guess..

[@MurderMostFowl]

Tim Toolman I think he did that to make it easy to split the stereo output of the CD player to mono.

[@TimToolman]

Fair enough, tho I hope the CD has the same data both left and right!

[@TimToolman]

Surely it must be the same speed as a regular cassette - it’s using the same interface!

[@8_Bit]

Same interface, but the fast load protocol might be right near the theoretical speed limit, as it doesn't need the extra safety margins cassette's warble and noise requires.

And I thought, I had too much time on my hands!
