Audio line splitting

[bigkim100]

We have a Nortel phone interface that provides a audio output (Mike level) for a standard tape recorder, to record phone conversations. Is there any way to safely slit it so that 2 outputs are available, one to the recorder, one to the sound card input of a desktop computer.
HELP!
I really need this.
Thanks in advance,

A transformer would be the best way.There are telco transformers available from just about any surplus or catalog house.You can also try the Pico website for part number information.Look at epanorama.net for detailed instructions on signal splitting.

U can just split the cable in two if u like all thatll hapen is that the signal will be weaker down the two branches but you can turn the recording level up though a sound cards mixer program. If you look there are are plugs ready made up that will split the signal for you. I do it all the time with audio siganls + have never had a problem.<p>B

kim you need to know whether the output plugs are rca or 3.5mm, which ever they turn out to be you can buy a very inexpensive splitter at radioshack for this purpose.

Kim, if you're indeed using a standard tape recorder such as is used in a home stereo system, you could just feed the LINE OUT connections to your sound card if the recorder will be recording while you're using the sound card input.<p>Dean
