Your cart is empty.The portable cassette tape player can be converted into MP3 digital files without using a PC, using a USB flash drive to convert MP3 format with one click and save it directly to a USB flash drive. You just put the tape in and play, press the record button and wait. After all songs are played, it automatically saves the audio on the tape side as an mp3 file on a USB flash drive. There will be separate files for song tapes. It has automatically split songs. Then you just have to turn the tape back and do the same thing and record the song on the other side to your USB stick.

Overall great product, especially considering the low price! I love that this tape-to-mp3 converter doesn't require software to complete its job, though Audacity is still helpful in "cleaning up" audio and separating any tracks that got merged. Auto mode generally works well to produce crisp audio with the tracks separated as they should be, though occasionally it gets something wrong. I've had it utterly fail to record 3 tracks, but manual mode fixed that. Note that even if you have the player set to automatically switch sides of a tape, the converter will stop converting after the first side. I sometimes get some distortion with the recorded audio, but that's probably due to degradation of decades-old tapes and not the fault of the converter.The instructions, written in your choice of several languages, are pretty easy to follow but not the most intuitive, and the converter itself is a little idiosyncratic. Therefore, I highly recommend practicing conversion with a tape that you don't care much about until you get the hang of it.I always plug the USB charging cable into my computer rather than using batteries, and it works perfectly. I will note that the converter does NOT come with an appropriate USB drive, and it needs a (by today's standards) tiny drive in a very old format, so you might have trouble finding/formatting an appropriate flash drive if you don't happen to have an ancient one lying around like I did. For some reason the instructions for conversion have you plug in the headphones before maxing the volume and hitting "record," but if you try to actually listen with the headphones in your ears, you will deafen yourself. If your hearing is good, you'll probably still be able to hear the sound through the headphones with them just sitting near you.

This was totally worthless. It was clearly cheaply made and did not work with any of the cassettes I tested. Obviously it was returned. Had hoped to find a inexpensive way to capture what was on some of my old tapes, but this was not the answer.

It takes a bit of patience to make this thing work. It's will eat tapes so be aware of that when using it. Keep a watchfu eye on that. The conversions actually sound good except some recordings are cut short by a few seconds and some over-right by a few seconds. Using the functions are difficult so that's why I say be patient. The instructions aren't fully explained but are adequate enough because there are so many different languages on one sheet of paper as usual. You also need smaller sized data discs. I'm using a half gig and it works perfectly however it cannot read large data discs. One major problem is that it sometimes stalls on recording and is difficult to monitor for when it stops. Otherwise I can say it's a good purchase so far. Your never know lifespan of this gadget.

So fair warning you'll need your own flashdrive and make sure it's no bigger than 32gb and can be formatted to fat32 .I used the Walmart onn flashdrive which was defaulted to fat33.You don't need batteries because it comes with a cord which actually makes it record better. There's a lot of hissing if you use batteries.I also recommend a good set of headphones so you can listen to the music as it plays. And if you want to press next one the recording side it'll divide the songs up. And make a different file each song and you can put them order if your a little computer savvy. All in all great product. And it didn't eat up my tape. Lol

Works as hoped. Little finicky sometimes when stating recording, but unplugging usb and plugging back in fixed it. Directions are confusing. To stop recording, press RECORD button again. Suggest a usb with a light so you can see it blinking when it records as not always sure looking at display. Very happy.

It performs as advertised. However, I found the recordings to sound scratchy and squelchy, sounds that were not present in the cassette but created by the recording process. In other words, the recordings are worse than the sound of the cassette if one were listening to it merely on "play."The player feels delicate. It's cheap plastic. It's not something I would want to carry around with me. The buttons are not responsive. I have to put some muscle into pushing the play button down hard enough that it sticks in position. I also find the record button to be temperamental, not always recording when pushed.The cassette records easily onto a thumb drive (that's not included), which can then be plugged into a computer and moved to wherever you want. There's no downloading of programs.It comes with earbuds. However, only one side works for me.I bought the player to record a few cassette tapes, which I did. It's unlikely I'll ever use it again. For $20.00, it was an economical investment, and it's unrealistic to expect a high quality machine at this price point.

I ordered the Mypin version of this and it worked great for about a month. Then it would stop the conversion process for no reason in the middle of a song. So I sent it back. I gave a review for that version of this product as well. I ordered two of these from Digitnow thinking that one of them is bound to work. I just verified that the first one was not working. For some reason it would skip during the song. No clue why. The sound is fine while I'm playing it, but the MP3 playback from the conversion has skips in it. So I am going to try the second one and update this post, but this far far 0 for 2.UPDATE: Just tried the third and final one. Same thing. Strange that the first one worked for a month, then started to do the same thing that these two are doing right out of the box. Either way. 0 for 3. Don't buy these.
