For experts to discuss very technical stuff and newbies to ask why the Spectrum they bought off ebay doesn't work.

Edit the captured sound in Audacity on your PC (Or any decent DAW).
Try to record your cassettes in wav or ogg vorbis.
Import into Audacity. Put all your audio into the right channel.
Make sure you are using mono NOT phone jack cables.
Remove ALL bass from the signal via EQ and normalisation.
Remove ALL sound from left channel.
Speed up the file by 75%.
Save in your folder.
I dont buy roms/sim cards/expansion buses for it, just run it through your mp3 player or PC direct into speccy.
That money spent on sd card expansion busses can be better spent on things like light pens!
Works 95% of the time, if you want 98%, add a high pass filter.
Then use winamp or your phone/tab to load it!
