Enhanced Playback Quality with Switchable Noise Reduction

Experience improved audio quality during cassette playback with the 202MKVII's switchable noise reduction feature. This functionality effectively reduces hiss, particularly when used with cassettes recorded with Dolby B noise reduction. Please note that the noise reduction function on the 202MKVII is exclusively available during playback, ensuring a smoother listening experience.

Versatile Microphone Input and Mixing for Announcements and Karaoke

Elevate your audio capabilities with the 202MKVII's microphone input, conveniently located on the front panel and equipped with level control. This microphone input allows for quick connections of dynamic microphones, perfect for announcements or karaoke sessions. With the built-in mixing function, you can seamlessly blend the microphone signal with cassette playback or an input signal, opening up creative possibilities for your recordings. Moreover, you have the flexibility to adjust the playback pitch and tempo of Deck 1 by ±12%, making it ideal for karaoke setups or events at sports centers and beyond.

Effortless Digital Archiving of Cassette Tapes

Unlike most other cassette decks, the modern 202MKVII is equipped with a USB output designed for effortless digital archiving of cassette tape content. You can easily create digital archives by connecting the deck to a Windows or Mac computer and utilizing recording software. This flexible setup allows you to capture audio at various sampling rates, ranging from 8 kHz to 48 kHz, with 8/16-bit resolution. Preserve your cherished cassette tape material digitally and enjoy the benefits of convenient, long-term storage and accessibility.

Effortless Backup and Distribution with Parallel Recording and Dubbing

The 202MKVII simplifies the process of creating backup or distribution copies of your audio content. By connecting an external device, you can simultaneously record audio to two cassettes in Deck 1 and Deck 2. This means you can efficiently generate a master tape and a distribution or backup copy simultaneously during your recording sessions. If you require duplicates of existing cassettes, the dubbing function is readily accessible, putting the power of replication right at your fingertips.

Seamless Cassette Playback with "Special" Mode

The 202MKVII offers a unique "Special" playback mode when used with two cassettes. In this mode, you can enjoy the convenience of listening to one cassette with headphones while the other is playing back via the line outputs. This feature enables you to prepare the next song or segment on the second cassette without interrupting the current playback. In contrast, the "Normal" playback mode routes both decks' playback signals to the line outputs and headphones output simultaneously, maintaining the standard playback setup. Additionally, both decks feature a "Return to zero" button, allowing quick navigation to the counters' zero positions. This function enables you not only to mark the beginning of a cassette but also to pinpoint the start of specific songs or significant points on the cassette.
