If you are using Windows 2000, Windows NT or Windows XP then you can generate a "VOC" sample file which you can play through a sound player which can read this file format. (GoldWave can read "VOC" sample files. Go to [http://www.goldwave.com/ Goldwave Homepage] to download it).
If you have a CPC with a built in cassette recorder (e.g. CPC464, CPC464+), you will find that there isn't a cassette connector (5-pin DIN socket) like there is on CPC's with a built in disc drive. (e.g. CPC664, CPC6128, CPC6128+), therefore you will need to record the audio to a blank cassetteor alternatively you can add your own [[DIY_464_External_Audio_Socket|DIY audio-input socket]] to the 464. The program can then be loaded in the same way as any other Amstrad CPC cassette program. If loading is unsuccessful, then you may need to adjust the volume of the audio output from your sound card and re-record the sound. Repeat this until the program is loaded successfully by the Amstrad. Once you have found the correct volume, you can use this setting for all programs.
You will also need to connect a cable from the "Line-Out" of your audio card to the audio input of a cassette player (e.g. "Line-In"). The lead you will need is likely to be a 3.5mm phono plug to 3.5mm phono plug. Some Hi-Fi's have a 6.5mm phono socket, so you will need a 3.5mm to 6.5mm conversion adaptor.
