High Samuel, Aren't you a little mixed up there? You said to run a line in cable from the headphone jack of the sound card to the headphone jack of the tape player. That trick wont work. Because you are trying to run 2 outputs in to each other. If the voltage was much higher then 250mv which comes out of both a walk man and your sound card, you will end up frying your tape player and your sound card all at the same time. The headphone jack if anything, should be connected to the line in jack of the sound card. This way, Gold Wave or any audio editor will make the recording without any problems. I'm not to keen on making recordings on a pc yet, but I did learn that the hard way when I was a kid. Two outputs can't be connected together.
