Questions & Answers

Is it possible to play back pre-recorded tapes with this? Is it possible for me to listen to some old tapes?

Yes, you can listen to prerecorded tapes as long as they are microcassettes.

My second question is, how long does it take for this to be delivered? I'm looking for a way to get my package to Austin, Texas. ?

Please keep in mind that micro cassettes are not the same as mini cassettes. The Mini cassette is slightly larger than the Micro cassette. Once you've confirmed that you have micro cassettes, we have a better unit than the Sony 560 that is currently on sale: the Panasonic RN 305, item number B00004T1XI. Yes, we ship to Texas; simply choose the shipping method that best suits your needs. Nelson, I hope the information provided above has been helpful.

Is it possible to record DAT mini cassettes with this recorder?

Digital Audio Tape (DAT) is a type of tape that records audio. This device is designed to work with "analog audio compact cassettes," such as the SONY MC-100. br>I suggest investing in a digital recorder with a USB port for transferring your recordings to a computer. They are smaller and more compact than the SONY M-series cameras. Solid state, 560V, and a lot easier to use.

When I try to remind the Sony micro recorder to listen to playback, it eats the tape. ?

I'm a sports columnist, not a technician, so I'm not sure, but I'm guessing the part's regulating gear is worn out. Every company stopped making micro cassette recorders a few years ago. Digital recorders (such as the ones found in your phone) have taken their place. (There are no moving parts here)

Five out of five stars
5/5

It appears to be brand new and performs in the same manner. It was easy to obtain the manual from the manufacturer at a reasonable price.

It's fantastic! Please accept my gratitude for the additional items
5/5

I was able to listen to the locations where I had recorded the Milpitas and North San Jose, CA growth. br>3Com, VTA, and Land on 237, with a lot of beautiful natural grasses. It's become even more incredible now. br>Microsoft has moved to California. br> Highway 101 is also known as State Route 237. Wow! Only 20 years have passed. Or so.

It was a cinch to use
5/5

It was a cinch to use. My old one would jam and stop recording or playing, which was perfect for a couple of tapes with important recordings that I couldn't afford to lose. The only issue was that it took ten days to arrive. br>br>I'm transitioning to the digital age with a Sony Digital Recorder, which means I won't have to deal with any mechanical issues in the future, and it also converts all recordings to "MP3" files, which is much easier. The Microcassette Recorder, on the other hand, will remain in my possession because it is useful for keeping permanent records.

It was a complete failure! This item was a complete waste of money for the price! The speaker was a garbled mess, and you could barely hear anything but horrible noise! The prices for this product are ridiculous, and I would return it in a heartbeat for a refund
