I just bought one and my tape plays to fast when listening on the device, is there a way to slow it down?

This particular device is not a "player" so you don't ever get good quality. I don't think it plays faster when I listen to mine, but sometimes it records things too fast. Try listening to the music you record as an Mp3 on your computer. If it sounds right then the device is working. They now have a new homepage and updates for the player on-line so you might go there and see if there is information to help.

I have had two of them and both did the same thing. These are defective units as far as the tapes are concerned.If you have your paperwork and box, I would send it back and get a refund. I threw mine away so can't return it...now the CD is acting up. It is ready for the trash and I will NEVER, NEVER, NEVER buy another one.

You may have already done this but make sure the volume on the device you are playing (iPod or whatever)is at maximum level.Hope this helps.

Mine did the same. That's what we get for being frugal, but mine is left in a shared work space, so hated to spend a lot of money on one. I have solved the problem by using an old walkman type CD player with the aux. cord.

I tried and it will not charge and play at the same time. The charging cord does not allow the device to seat properly in the cassette player.

You should check to see if they're are any appliances that might be causing interference or "noise". I had a similar problem where the speed was slow, but I found out that in other locations of my house the performance was much better. After I poked around for a bit, I found out that after unplugging my mp3 recharge adapter the speed increased dramatically. It may be a bit inconvenient, but you have to try unplugging devices that you suspect may be causing the problem and plug them elsewhere. This could be the only way.

You can try tapping on the control box..if it blinks to ur taps then you have ot on and your music isnt lound enough

It sounds like your mini cassette may not be seated properly in the adapter. also make sure the arms are bringing the tape forward fully. Also make sure the tape is wound snugly before inserting the cassette in the adapter. Good luck!

This is happening to me as well.. i have slightly over 1000 songs on my Kubik evo..not sure what is causing it nor do i believe there is a fix or a firmware update to fix this issue... hopefully it can get addressed soon

The one I just received skipped the track by holding down the volume button. The on/off button also works as play pause for me.

After assembled and plugged in, the left nob labeled "cd, phono, radio, tape line". Turn to the option you wish and adjust the volume up. The device is technically always on when plugged in.

One important clarification - it remembers the file you were on and starts playing it from the beginning, but if you were listening to, say, a lecture which is 1+ hours long, it won't remember where you stopped, so it will start it over from the beginning. You have NO way to fast forward (only skip), which is why I'll be returning mine.

just got my zen yesterday and i am having a problem. about every 10-12 minutes the music will slow down to almost a stop. I have to hit the forward button to go to the next song and then it will play fine for about 10-12 minutes then is will slow again. the battery is showing fully charged. It is very distracting to have to pick it up and forward it about every 3 songs.

I have the same problem and unfortunately have not been able to play music from it either. Maybe we can get an answer from the makers on what we might be doing incorrect.

I have had the same question after buying it. I can barely hear the playback. Which is why I don't use it anymore.

James,Use Apple Lossless and get great sound off your Classic 120....I'm going to order one as soon as I get through typing to you. My iPhone just does not hold enough music when using Apple Lossless. Thanks,Magoo
