Most analog - to - digital sound recording pull gadget scarcely guarantee mention these days . But the PlusDeck Ex ’s power to record MP3s to analog cassette is so rummy , I ca n’t aid but be amused .
If you ’re longing for the Day of mixtapes burn dub to a trashy looking Memorex cassette , this is for you . The USB port reserve you to transfer files to the PlusDeck to be put on tape , so you may play them back in your circa-1988 Walkman .
But the PlusDeck Ex does have a few worthwhile characteristic , such as recording FM radiocommunication to a digital file , phono jacks for wreak and ripping vinyl radical , 7.1 surround sound support and a cellphone In , which is presumably for recording voicemail and/or conversations . It also has RCA in / out , 3.5 mm in , and a clock / timer that let you schedule recordings .
The only trouble is the thing run about $ 300 , which is about $ 250 more than I ’m uncoerced to pay , in person . [ Think GeekviaUncrateviaWired ]
