Unlock Your Datasette
Remzi:
If you don't want cables coming out of your datasette or you don't want to drill holes,you can install a bluetooth adapter inside your datasette.I will write up the instructions when I find some spare time.
Kenobi:
Hello, first of all, thanks for your excellent work for Commodore crew. I have my own one almost 25 yers :-) I want to try this mod for my Noris DR-1535 but I haven't skill to read schematics. I found on another forum your post with picture of DR-1535 board (attached bellow), it's the same as mine. Could you help me please with solution of soldering right ones pins of the board? Thank you very much. Martin.
Remzi:
Hi Kenobi.Welcome to the forum.
Load and run the program Recorder Justage on your C64.
Solder your 3.5mm jack plug to the points on the photo above.
Do not use a capacitor or resistor.I have a similar board and it gives 1.7V at that pin.I don't think it can damage your audio source device.
Plug it in to a phone or tablet and go to the website
www.load64.com
Start the stream and adjust the volume to %80 on your device.
Check with recorder justage to see if you get a good signal.
Kenobi:
Hi Remzi, thank you.
I tried as you adviced but nothing signal arrived to C64. My cheap multimeter at range 200V AC was able to get 3,4V at this pin before I solder cable with 3,5mm jack. I don't know if it is proper way to get relevant data with this type of multimeter due it's AC voltage with another sinus than 50Hz. Have you any idea how to solve it? Thank you for reply, Martin.
Remzi:
I think I found the reason.Here is my board
My opamp is in the opposite orientation.So try this instead,
If you don't get any signal,try a 100nf capacitor.
P.S. There is no AC voltage on the datasette.5V DC is used on the board,6V DC powers the motor.
