If it only has two sockets, it's an older iMac. The two sockets are
headphones and Apple Speakers. <http://is.gd/eenb1>

If it's a newer iMac G4, it would have three sockets - speakers,
headphones, Line-in. <http://is.gd/eend1>

See <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2643> for the range and links to the
above port images.

If your iLamp only has headphone and speaker ports, is it the same
machine you used to use for transferring audio? If it is I can only
imagine you must've used some kind of USB input - do you have an iMic?

said stereo to the mac....

Don't follow any of this! The OP said they used to use the MD-Mac for
recording. Pd suggests the Mac may never have been able to do this?
Huge's suggestion will only work if there's a line in - although i can't
see the point, direct connection would work just as well.

Could the OP let us know which Mac and MD they have?

Ta, Rob

Thanks - it's a newer one. Totally forgot about what the line in socket
did!
