Enjoy, Dub, and Digitize Your Cassettes with Ease
A growing trend toward cassette releases and an ongoing need to quickly archive old LPs and mixtapes has given rise to the TASCAM 202mkVII dual cassette deck. This modern, professional 3U rackmount cassette player/recorder is perfect for transfer facilities, houses of worship, and your own personal arsenal. Variable playback speed and onboard noise reduction extract maximum performance from your old cassettes. And RTZ (return to zero) and cue modes offer modern playback performance in the digital age. The onboard USB connection is extra cool, allowing you to archive your entire cassette library in all its analog glory. Best of all, the 202mkVII comes with a handheld remote so you can control your audio from anywhere in the room. When you find yourself in tape territory, the TASCAM 202mkVII makes everything possible.
Made for every application
Thanks to IC Logic transport control, a set of high-quality tape heads, and a 3U rackmount build, the 202mkVII can find a spot in any conversion studio, commercial audio system, or personal hi-fi rig. Dual-deck playback allows for easy MP3 conversion with the deck's onboard USB connection. Conversely, a stereo input and recording/dubbing function enable you to record onto your blank tapes from any PC, mobile audio device, or pre-recorded cassette. However, if you're looking to enjoy the nostalgic sounds of your cassette collection, an RCA out ensures compatibility with several modern hi-fi systems.
Onboard noise reduction
The 202mkVII features the latest noise reduction system to maximize performance and minimize noise from any tape in your arsenal. Standard systems of years past were notorious for cutting off the high frequencies of your sound, but that is simply not the case with the 202mkVII. Thanks to an onboard modern dynamic noise reduction chip, your playback will stay noise-free without sacrificing the treble of your tapes.
Supports most cassette types
Whether you're dealing with Type I (ferro) or II (chrome) playback tapes or Type IV (metal) hi-fi cassettes, the 202mkVII has you covered. You get playback and record support for Types I and II and playback-only support for Type IV.
±12% variable playback knob
Worn and newly exchanged motor bands can offset the rate at which your cassettes play. Take control of your audio with the 202mkVII's ±12% variable playback speed in deck one, and negate the need to dig around your unit's internals the next time you need a speed adjustment.
