Back in the late 80s I wrote a simple sampler for my old Apple][+ that used input from the tape port to tell the speaker when to click. Playing an audio tape at very high volume produced sort-of recognizable sound from the Apple. I never managed to get it to sound as good as some of the game intros of the day though.
- EvanAnderson 5y agoThe wonderful "Inside the Apple IIe" by Gary Little (https://archive.org/stream/InsideTheAppleIIe https://archive.org/stream/InsideTheAppleIIe) has a program to digitize audio from the cassette port on the Apple IIe. It's an excellent demonstration of the versatility of the hardware and something I'd recommend to anybody who has a physical Apple IIe to play with.

- TedDoesntTalk 5y agoLooking through that book, it’s not easy to find the demo you’re talking about without a hard copy. Do you have any idea which chapter might have it?
- AndrewStephens 5y agoThe book is great (wish I had access in 1987) and the demo starts on page 323 (#342 in the pdf)[0]. To find it quickly I used a long-forgotten arcane technique that was once known as looking-it-up-in-the-index.
