First of all, WTH is that Tapdancer? I did found something that tells me it should be a TAP to audio converter. Is it that? headscratch And if it is, how do you expect the audio output to enter your Commodore? confused

@Andras: If he had a tapuino why would he want to use that Tapdancer thingy? confused

@gerliczer I used it like this: Downloaded tapedancer on an android emulator on a laptop. I connected the laptop's audio output to a ZX Spectrum. It worked. But now I remember that the Commodore doesn't accept audio signals.Only if there is a datasette between the tapedancer and the machine... So it won't work. The solution is Tapuino.

I remember trying this using Tapdancer on an Android phone, and outputting through the 3.5mm audio to a cassette adaptor playing in the datasette.

It didn't work.

The spectrum using sine wave.
Commodore using the square wave.
So if we use a regular cassette player, that means the square sign will be distorted.
That was the reason why was in the 90's plays in the television (TV shows with IT content) just spectrum games, not for in commodore.		 (no topic)
"A Spectrum szinusz jelet használ.
A Commodore a négyszög jelet használ.
Tehát, ha hagyományos kazettás magnót használunk, az azt jelenti, hogy a négyszög jel torzulni fog.
Ez volt az oka annak, hogy a '90-es években a televízióban (IT-tartalmú műsorokban) csak Spectrum játékokat játszottak, nem pedig Commodore-t."
