What's the simplest way to feed *just* the audio from a VHS tape into a pc?

You would use a stereo RCA to mini male cable, like this:

Hook up the left and right rca audio plugs to your VCR and the mini plug to the line-in of your sound card. Use whatever audio software you like to record from the line-in of your sound card.

If your looking for recording or audio editing program then try Audacity (it's free too).

I've used this method but the sound is very distorted, even after lower the levels etc.

I want to copy the audio on my computer from a (commercial) VHS concert tape that I own.

Is this due to copy protection???

Looking at the recorded waveform the right channel is completely distored and the left is slightly so.

BTW the I can record on to audio cassette fine.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks

jules.

I got it working in the end - it was a faulty out put on my VCR
