Topic: Basic checklist for my first recording?

[ScoobieKW]

Hey now, my first computer was a Timex/Sinclair. I had the expanded memory module, I was rolling in high cotton.

Yeah, who would ever need more than 16K RAM, and 45 minutes of cassette storage?

Lucky, I wanted the add on memory, couldn't afford it. Bought TI-994a next, complained to my dad about the woefully inadequate 16K of RAM. He started telling me how they used to run an insurance company on a mainframe with only 16K of RAM, and I should be grateful for that.

You could say the first "preamp" I ever bought was this thing called a "Z-Box", that took the program signal from the cassette recorder and sweetened it up so that the Timex could "hear" it better.....wooohooooo!

I must have needed one of those. I never could get it to save and restore from the cassette deck.
