you just need a standard adapter available anywhere to do
this conversion.

If i were doing this i'd probably have 
 a) used a hardware preamp rather than doing it in software 
 b) sampled at 44.1KHz - although my understanding is that your
    basic consumer sound card (including some that cost $200) will
    always sample at 48KHz and resample in software - so i dunno
    that it makes any difference in the standard case.
