Getting NO sound while using analog/digital pass-through with an S-Video cable: help please……?

I hooked up an old analog camcorder to a digital camcorder with an S-Video cable and the footage transferred just fine, but no audio was transferred with it. what kind of cable do I need and where do I hook it up to in order to get the audio to also get transferred?
the digital camcorder is hooked up via FireWire to my PC, that’s why I have no idea where to plug in the L/R stereo cables. there is nowhere to do so on the digital camcorder, or the PC itself. I still have no idea what the hell do to.

The analog camcorder came with an AV cable. One side of the AV cable plugs into the camcorder. The other side has a Yellow (video), red (right or mono audio) and possibly a white (left audio if stereo). This is the same color layout as you would find on a VCR or DVD player or on a TV with video in jacks.

The digital camcorder came with an AV cable that connects to its AV-in jack and has Yellow (video), red (right or mono audio) and a white (left audio) RCA jacks. Match the audio jacks together – you may need to get a couple of RCA gender benders that are female on both sides to connect the male RCA audio jacks from the two camcorders.

S-video connection provides a better analog video signal. Plug the S-video cable in and unplug the yellow video cable. The audio cable(s) stay connected.

The digital camcorder would connect to the computer using firewire… this has nothing to do with the connection from the analog camcorder to the digital camcorder… but that firewire connection is a digital connection that carries digital video and audio information to your computer.
