Hi Everyone,

Just got a CPC 464. Waiting for it to arrive.

Where should I start? Remember I know nothing about Amstrad (YET) :laugh:

Thanks

Bill

Just get a tape with a game and load it :)
Or one of these audio cassette adapters.
CDT2WAV is a good and simple program to play back the CDT file.

Thanks I just ordered a TZXduino so I can use it on the CPC 464 :D

... right, but keep in mind the 464 does not have a tape audio input, so you will need a car cassette tape audio mp3 adapter to use it. And then you could have just used your PC / Mac to play back the audio would have been cheaper for a first test ;)

I am going to install Ear jack in my 464 to connect the TZXduino

Sure, why not. Not where I would have started as the first project, but makes sense :)
