Subject: Does anybody here own an Oric
Hello all
As well as my Master 128 I have some other old computers in my collection,
including a Dragon 32 and an Oric-1.
The Oric was, in fact, my first ever computer back in 1983.
I have seen some utilities on the Oric websites where cassette images can
be turned into WAV images. I have done this with some tape images but I
cannot get them to load on the Oric.
I have a laptop and the only way I know of is to connect the cassette lead
(I have a Dragon 32 cassette lead (a 5 pin DIN lead and three connector
jacks on the other end) from the headphone socket to the 7 pin DIN
connector on the Oric.
I understand that the BBC cassette lead might be compatible too (but I
don't have one)
Has anybody else tried a similar experiment to this (i.e. loading WAV
files directly to the computer) and what hints might there be to get the
thing to work?
Best wishes
Steve
