At this moment there are two threads handling the cassette port of the IBM 5150. Having various Commodores I'm more than familiar with the cassette except.... I hardly use them because I use the Cassiopei cassette emulator.
Having a 5150 and reading those threads I got curious if there is a cassette emulator for the 5150. Using Google I found nothing but it can be that I used the wrong keywords.
Of course I gave it a thought myself. The input and output line of the Commodore cassette port are TTL level and that made it quite easy to hook it up to, for example, the LPT port of a PC. In case of the 5150 it is more obvious to the microphone inlet and the headphone outlet of a modern PC.
My main question: is there any cassette emulator around for the 5150?
Thank you in advance for any information!
