Parts from Radio and 269

Thomas and I headed over to RadioShack, only to find that these parts really add up when you're trying to purchase about 40 of them.
We were able to get o 269 Electronics on Canal St and get our parts a little bit cheaper.
Our buy

Jacks for the stereo and mono. Mono plugs.

Joon Ho Phang is working on a similar project for his Pcomp instrument and was able to give us some help when we tested out Christin's recordings. Initially, it sounded quite bad. A 1uF cap that goes in between pins 2 and 3 made the sound less "scratchy" and "tin-y" This makes sense since these are the pins for the sound inputs from the computer.
