From: SI Ron (Crazy Music Man) | 9/23/2022 3:04:04 PM | | | | Does anyone here have a Microcassette Recorder they don't need? You Know the old fashion tiny ones that plays mini tapes. I have two that don't work. I have old tapes that could have my fathers voice on them. I don't trust eBay, because that's were one of these that don't work was bought. They play tapes for a few seconds, but the electronics are messed up in the recorder and starts making a horrible sound.
If you hit play with no tape, it makes a loud distorted sound like when the tape was in. I thought it was bad tapes, but its the recorder.
I don't trust eBay.
There is one on Kijiji, but they want 80 bucks and it looks like the same model I have that doesn't work. I don't want to spend a pile of money for something thats only going to be used a few hours. |

To: SI Ron (Crazy Music Man) who wrote (32463) | 9/23/2022 4:29:18 PM | From: miraje | | | See if you can find a store that can convert old analog A/V sources, like your tapes, to a digital format. A few years ago I found a shop that copied my mother's old (very old) 8mm home movie films to DVDs. Didn't cost a whole lot..
Also, if you do buy a player, you can always resell it after you're done with it.. |
