Greetings,

No luck as of yet, since both of my Bits are still in disrepair.  I have attempted to digitally record the dumps from a 23 year old cassette tape; I think I originally taped each of the three dumps multiple times on the cassette.  Since loading from the computer to a Bit has not been reliable, and the Bits aren't functioning correctly, I can't tell which dump is which, or if the recordings are sound.

What I need to do is get one of the Bits working, then figure out the appropriate recording and output levels, load each set into a Bit, and dump them directly from the Bit to the computer.  At that point I will have something to upload.  Even when this is done, it will take some trial and error for anyone to set their output levels for successful loads.

It was, in some ways, easier when using a tape deck, since they had VU meters for setting the recording level, and a fixed output level for loads.

If you can post a set of custom sounds, I'm sure there are some people up here that would be eager to try them out.

Cheers
