Just a cable like this: Amazon.co.uk: 3.5mm Jack to 2 x RCA Phono Stereo Audio Cable 1m Lead: Electronics & Photo

Plus some software like Audacity: Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder

I use SoundForge: Sony Creative Software - Sound Forge 9 audio editing software & music editor - Free Download

Converted hundreds of old mix tapes to MP3
