Did what I wanted it to do

The cassette player did what I needed it to do and allowed me to convert an old demo cassette to mp3 on my PC. I used the drivers that came with the player and the audacity programme on the disc with no problems. All work fine and can't really complain for $20

awesome. How have I lived without this before

Wasn't expecting that much from a cheap cassette tape to MP3 converter but worked surprisingly well for the price I paid for it. Just plugged into a Windows 7 PC, waited a bit for it to install (seems to happen automatically) and from there I was able to copy a music cassette direct into the free Audacity software to transfer a few old music cassettes to MP3 format. Has auto reverse, rewind, fast forward, volume and a headphone socket plus of course a mini-USB connector. Not sure if this would be durable enough for serious heavy duty copying of big libraries of music tapes, but for what I wanted turned out to be ideal and has worked without fault what little I've used it so far. Note: in case you were thinking, it's not self-contained, it doesn't have SD card or direct-to-USB pen drive copying, just via USB to a computer.

Very expensive, very poor quality.

Does what is says on the tin and the conversion is easily attained and of reasonable quality.Documentation is a little short and I am still not sure how to stop the tape reversing when finished. The slider switch offering 'loop' or mono direction' does not appear to work.The software is ok as long as I don't let it automatically detect new track when it stops recording at the first break. The iTunes music library indeed does list all the recordings as you documented them when recording but unfortunately it does not extend to labelling the computer folder with anything other than 'Unknown Artist' and 'Unknown Album'. So if you want to identify your music without using iTunes attend to your music folder immediately after conversion.That said, this is a simple and cheap device that works woderfully well.

Prefect adapter,It is very easy to setup.

I bought this piece of device a little over a month ago. So far it's been working fine and most importantly, it does the job. Albeit it records at normal tape speed (it does not do fast dubbing), the sound quality is also very good, almost the same as the original.However you would have to input the tape info (like album name, artist name, track, etc) manually in the player - itunes or windows player - as i noticed it does not upload this info to player, even when you have entered them in the device's software.So if you do not mind copying one tape at a time, then this product is recommended.

iPhone to HDMI works great

After accidently dropping and breaking my last one, I bought this one. As I literally have thousands of cassettes I no longer listen to, it's great to be able to convert them and start listening and rediscovering them again, even if it will take me some time to convert them all... The sound is great, loud and clear, and as I already have Audacity installed on my Windows 8 PC system, I didn't need to install the software. I just plugged it in, opened Audacity, and carried on. (Please be aware, if it's your first converter and you don't already have Audacity, you will need to install the software.) It's such a great system, my Dad has now started giving me his old cassettes to convert for him to listen to on his tablet! Yes, the converter may look cheap, but don't judge it by that, as it works well, and does what it says on the tin... well, box!

Perfect for my needs and great price

After reading the many disparaging comments about this item, I was rather worried about purchasing it, but in the end the desire to get my old cassette tapes on to iTunes was stronger. Yes, it is fairly flimsy looking, but so far except for one or two minor glitches it fits the bill perfectly. It is essential to untick the 'split into tracks' button ; if you do not then long tracks come out in 2-minute bites. Yes, it is annoying that it is all done in real time, but worth it to get precious unobtainable tracks onto a cd or iPod. It could not be easier to use, just dowload the disc, plug in and play.I am glad I took the plunge!

Great seller who replaced a faulty player immediately

Great seller who replaced a faulty player immediately. Transfers vary in quality due to inherent problems with the supplied software. I’ve had better success with Audacity.

The picture quality is sharp .

I got this for my Birthday and I couldnt be happier!I have installed on both an XP Pro machine and a Windows 7 one with no problem.You get both their own software and Itunes on a disk. My only gripe would be that you need Itunes installed as this is what does the conversion. I think you may be able to use a program called Audacity instead but I havent looked into it.To use it you plug the tape player into your computer, fire up their software and and click record. You get an option to split the recording or not and away you go. The length of time it takes is dependent on the length of tape as there is no option to speed up the recording

Excellent value.

Only used it to play talking books. They sound good. The option to have the second side play automatically is handy. Battery changing is a bit fiddly but gets easier with practice. Excellent value and would buy again if needed.

Mirror your apps to any TV!

Seems to work just fine! Plugged into a USB port (I used to a powered USB 3.0 hub to ensure it receives enough juice) and Windows 10 immediately recognized it as an audio device (Microphone array).As it's recognised as an audio input device there's really no need to touch the included software. Simply open Audacity and select the new 'Microphone array' as the source, press play on the Tape Express and hit record in Audacity. Simples!Build Quality:: It's cheap shiney plastic (the chrome parts aren't metal). Feels like a toy, but it all functions as it should.Audio quality:: 2 Channel, 16 Bit, 48kHz - The tapes I've tried have a little bit of a hiss, HOWEVER, I guess I'm trying these tapes with nostalgia-goggles on and need to remember that audio tapes are not amazing sounding in the first place and take the age and condition of the tapes into consideration as a factor.
