Made up a cable for the cassette interface to load & save programs as WAV files via Audacity on my Mac.

The interface uses a Mini-DIN-5 plug & socket:
Pin 1 = REM+
Pin 2 = ground
Pin 3 = REM-
Pin 4 = ear/mon for playback from the Mac
Pin 5 = mic for recording on the Mac

When trying to load back into the X-07, if you can hear it through the X-07's speakers then you're probably good.

On Audacity I had to set record & playback level at 100% (defaulted to 50%) and also increase the playback gain by +25dB.
