Separation of Voice & Data:
#

After recording a cassette in the wav-foramt, we can see the following picture in a program called Audacity:
Voice & Data track of a typical Voice & Data - Atari cassette ; thanks to tschak909 from AtariAge for the screenshot

The voice layer is at the top, the data layer at the bottom. With Audacity it is possible to separate the 2 layers. For Atari users with a Mac, this is important, because the emulator Atari800MacX in version 4.6.0 from Mark Grebe is not ready to read in wav-files. Mark will take a look at that, when he has finished his PhD. Up to that time the Mac users must have that separation in order to use Voice & Data cassettes.
