maybe to move into the future, we need to look into the past.

The old ZX Spectrum computers were designed to use any tape deck that you had available rather than a model specific deck and took in the audio signal and converted it into binary code, it also had the ability to compensate for the differences in tape deck output which means using the same technology for the Peachy wouldn't require he AC coupling and all the other stuff they are having to deal with. Schematics for the circutry are appairently online and as it is more than twenty years old any patents have worn off.


maybe looking into this might help with some of the problems the peachy is having and could solve the sound card problems.
