Re: cassette player: Can you rewind? Is there automatic rewind?

This unit has a rewind button. It does not have automatic rewind. It automatically shuts off at the end of a tape during playback. During rewind or fast forward, you have to manually press the stop button at the end of the tape. Battery life is decent, but it only uses one AA battery. When playing a tape, expect the battery to last about four hours.

I no longer have it. I bought it in order to play cassettes since I had a boat load of them and no way to play them.

We love this machine and are converting all our vinyl records to digital. We have not yet tried the cassette conversion, but, according to the manual, it can be done just as easily at the vinyl records. There is a cassette player in the machine, and I imagine you just change the setting from record to cassette.

No, you don't have to listen to the entire thing but I would make sure the audio is sounding good before you commit the entire thing only to realize that it's over modulated or so messed up as to not be listenable. If you can hear the sound when you press fast forward on the cassette player, you can actually record the audio using fast forward and then using the software you can slow the audio down and it will sound perfect saying you time.

. I think so, don't they all. I also had bad luck with an RCA shoebox. Can anyone recommend a cassette player that works? Thanks!

Hi C. There is a reverse(rewind) button(also fast forward,stop, and pause) to turn back tape to certain spot. But if you are talking about auto-reverse - where the tape automatically goes to the next side when first side is finished - no it does not have that. There is no counter either so when you do reverse, you just have to stop and go till you find what you want - it's a nice little recorder/player for the price,mine has a slight humming in the background when I recorded voices, but didnt bother me much - I have this and have written a review(on jan 10th/10) with feature details - it may be of some help Laurie

Patrick....this is a pretty basic portable recorder. Materials on previously recorded cassettes can certainly be erased....editing such cassette tapes is possible but tricky because of their small size. Hope this is of some help.

Yes, I believe you can as the cassette player works well from the USB port of my desktop.

Could not get to work because auto reverse would keep clicking back and forth. The tape deck (most cassette decks) has auto reverse that would change direction of tape (instead of physically removing tape, flipping over, reinserting) when sensed tape was tight.

Yes, the model I have allows cassette recordings. That was the reason I purchased the unit.

There is no "Record" button on the player so I would say that you cannot transfer mp3 to cassette.

If you hit the rewind button while playing, you should be able to put the recorder in rewind mode. Otherwise its hit stop and then rewind. Since I returned the unit, I am assuming you would be able to go directly from playing to rewind without stopping and then rewinding for any period. Similar recorders do have that feature.

Yes, that's exactly what it does. You play the cassette in the device while it's connected via USB to your computer, and create a digital file which you may save in MP3 format, among many others.

I think it is possible to rewind but I bought the replacement spool which appears to be easy to install. It has been a pleasure to use this item. I recommend it. Dean

I would buy a normal cassette player rather than this one. There are several inexpensive ones that have a built in speaker or headphone plug. I would only get this one if you are trying to convert your cassette tapes to mp3 files.

Yes, it has. You can set that in the play mode menu to repeat the entire recording (loop type). Also you can set specific start ('A') and finish ('B') points to repeat, if you would like so.

let's say your son records six thoughts today and gets ready to transcribe them. he will find his six, numbered recordings and easily flip from one to another. say the second one is forty-five minutes long. in the play mode he can "rewind" back to a point he missed or "fast forward" and whiz thru the bad/boring stuff. the two round buttons below PLAY/STOP/REC are rewind and fast forward keys. ___ more. the little machine stores recordings by date. so in stop mode, your son can use the rewind and fast forward keys to find a date and recording. its a great little thing. took it to a old vets reunion and recorded a couple of fun guys' remarks. it's one of those things, Wendy, that i always stuff in my pocket now. and, its xmas. here's betting he loves it.
