AS mentioned above--the sound out from your tape player is the earphone jack. The Sound In on your computer is the audio jack. A standard RCA patch cord may be compatible with both; if it is not you may have to go to RadioShack to find the right patch cord. Once they are patched together, a software program (AUdacity, Sound Studio, Amadeus, Roxio, etc.) can be set to take in the sound from the audio in port and make a digital file from it. The digital file can then be burned to a CD. If a whole LP, or multiple songs, is captured in a single file, most software program allow you to split it into individual sub-files at poins you choose.
