Hello.
I've been given a Tascam DAT machine today with 3 tapes and one cable that does connect from the Tascam to the headphone socket of my Mac (Mac Pro).
And since then I've been scouring the internet for a way to transfer the data on the tapes to my mac so I can edit it in Final Cut Pro (along with the video, which I have already captured).
Can anybody please tell me what programme to use for capturing audio or what I should be doing as I'm getting no response from Final cut pro or soundtrack yet I can see the levels indicator on the Tascam moving and I know the data is on the tape, but I can't get it onto the mac.
I'd be so grateful for your help...I know it's probably something very simple I'm not doing (never tried to do this before) and don't mind if you call me an idiot if you can give me the answer.

Many thanks

Tony
