PURPOSE: An apparatus and a method for playing/recording a cassette tape of a computer are provided to play sound source recorded in a cassette tape or record sound source to a cassette tape in a computer by mounting a detachable cassette tape playing/recording unit on a computer. CONSTITUTION: A keyboard or mouse(110) being connected to a computer is an input device for inputting recording source and specific data. A communication interface unit(120) is connected to a communication network as the internet or the PSTN, and interfaces communication data. A CD-ROM driver(130) extracts data from a CD-ROM or records data in a CD-ROM. A power supply(140) provides an electric power source. A main board(150) analyzes key data inputted through the keyboard or mouse(110) and detects a function to be performed and stores record source inputted through the keyboard or mouse(110) and performs playing or recording of a cassette tape and controls audio outputting and recording. A cassette tape playing and recording unit(160) is connected to the main board(150) and plays an audio recorded in cassette tape and records sound source in cassette tape. A sound card unit(170) transmits an audio played in the playing and recording unit(160) to the main board(150) and converts and outputs the audio processed in the main board(150) into analogue signals. An audio output distribution device(180) transmits the audio outputted from the sound card unit(170) to an audio output device(190) in accordance with a control of the main board(150). The audio output distribution device(180) also transmits the audio to be transmitted to the audio output device(190) to the cassette tape playing and recording unit(160) in recording mode. |
