Plusdeck 2c PC Cassette Deck

Not every aspiring musician or upcoming band has the money to rent expensive services when it comes to recording music; so most depend on second hand and cost effective equipment. Usually, a cassette recorder with multiple inputs is used in order to record every instrument, then the recording is captured in a computer and edited. But I feel that the cassette tape to computer transition is difficult and if one is not careful the audio integrity suffers.

I ran into a device called Plusdeck 2c, it is a device that allows for cassette tapes to be transfered into a computer. This device is like a CD-Rom drive, only the CD is actually a tape and it fits in a computer’s 5.25″ bay. With a price tag of about ninety dollars, I think this device is must have for all beginners, as it will immensely facilitate transferring a tape into a Hard Drive.

The Plusdeck 2c also allows for listening to tapes as well as converting to popular audio formats. And with Headphone and microphone, line-in jacks and a serial port; one can add vocals, or more instruments. Unfortunately, or maybe not so, the only thing this PC cassette deck does not do is record back to tapes.

Get yourself a Plusdeck 2c PC Cassette Deck, and before you know it, your demo recordings will be in the hands of many producers.
