Video game console sampling

I watched Oh No's Rhythm Roulette episode a few years ago and got into producing a few days ago, I'm wondering how he is able to sample directly from his video game console.

The output cable on the console has a Left and Right channel , so he just sampled it.

But what would you need to get the audio to run through to your computer?

I plug both channels in and set my Numark PT01 USB portable turntable and set it as Input but it does nothing!

Thank you for the info!!!!

Can this mixer get the job done?

You might not need a mixer. Think about what Lampdog said after this hint. He does it with the TV in between so the HDMI goes to the TV and from there you can for example use the headphone output of the TV to connect it with your audio in on the computer. Another way is the way you already describe: You run thru the PT01 USB.
Since this havn't work you probably use a wrong cable or so. In this case we need to know a bit more about your setup. Which console? what cable did you use?
Also interesting would be which soundcard you have (do you have an external audio interface?) and which TV do you have (maker/model)

peace

I have sometimes recorded the audio output or sometimes even used a field recorder and recorded it from in the room...

Okay, I have a HP pavilion laptop I have usb port adapter, ther I have my pc studio black, my numark pt01 usb turntable and an old m-audio fast track. I tried to use my gamecube by connecting the red/white wires directly to the turntable.
