i got one of those public speaking mics from rat shack, i love it.
the tape distortion works when you turn the volume of the tape player all the way up thus boosting the signal. you cant really achieve the same effect with just a computer, you might be able to get mediocore results by plugging your guitar into the computer boosting the signal and then outputting from the computer into an amp and you wont really get gritty distortion or anything like you would get from a pedal or something, just some clipping from the levels going into the red.
