I'm somewhat electronic-theory-impaired, so bear with me if this is a really stupid question. :-) My wife is a law student and she records many hours of lecture each week on a little Sony microcassette recorder. Is it electronically possible to "zap" the recordings into the NeXT as .snd files, at speeds that are faster than real time. I'm sure I could hook something together that would allow me to input one hour's worth of recording in one hour. But is there a way that the cassette could be read by some other (unknown to me) device that could feed the output into a .snd file that could be managed on the NeXT? It would defeat the purpose to spend an hour dubbing the tape into the computer. But if this could be done, if effect, at super-fast-forward speed, it might be more helpful. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the nuts and bolts of this to know if this is feasible or not. If anyone has done it, or knows how to do it, or knows of products on the market that would help, please let me know. Thanks! John Bartley nimno!john@wupost.wustl.edu
