Recording cassette tape to iMac

Hi there!

I am trying to convert a cassette player into digital form through QuickTime. Whenever recording it sounds great except for an annoying echo. Any tips on how to alleviate this??


Thanks!

iMac, iOS 7.1, QuickTime

Right now I am plugging a cassette tape player into my iMac using a 3.3mm audio cable. I'm plugging it into the "Line In" port. I am then hitting play on the tape player and recording a new audio file in QuickTime. I've also tried this in GarageBand. In both programs the audio sounds pretty good except for an annoying echo. I'm hoping there is a way to eliminate the echo.


Thanks!
