PSP hardware tutorial: Creating a universal recording adapter

Sample screenshot of Joe Van's PSP hardware tutorial - Image 1In case you guys weren’t around last week, QJ.Net Forum resident Joel Van wrote a handy tutorial guide for turning the PSP into a portable guitar recorder. Among other important tools mentioned in the guide are Art’s lteixeira Boom Headset modification, Art’s Audio Mechanica homebrew application, and a 4 conductor 1/8 inch plug.

As a follow-up (or rather, a prelude) to that tutorial, Joel Van has just written up a guide for creating a universal recording adapter for the PSP. This new tutorial will enable the PSP to record “almost anything at CD quality into the PSP,” as Mr. Van states – and yes, the PSP can still record guitar tunes. Now, before the guys head over to the PSP forums for the tutorial, you may want to have these items ready:

  • A homebrew-compatible PSP
  • PSP headphone remote
  • A soldering iron, and soldering skills
  • 1 x MONO Enclosed Shielded cable and 1 x Stereo Shielded Enclosed cable
  • 1 x 1/8 inch 4 conductor plug
  • 1 x 1/8 stereo female PLUG or directly wire a headset
  • 1 x XLR female (universal adapter) or 1 x 1/4 Plug (guitar adapter)
  • 1/4 PLUG

As a last note, Joel Van warns readers that the tutorial is just a rough guide – do not attempt this unless you’re sure of what you’re doing. For the guys who feel they have the technical know-how to pull this off, the full tutorial awaits at the QJ.Net Forum. Enjoy your read!
