TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Have you tried WinAmp -- it may be able to read the Mac files (if not, it
will read MP3 that you produce on the Mac). Not widely publicised is that
WinAmp has a filter (NullSoft Disk Writer) that creates .wav files from
whatever is playing. You configure this in Preferences->Output.
If all else fails, you can connect line out on the Mac to line in on the PC
sound card. You would then play on the Mac while recording on the PC.
