Hi!
Or the revox b710 i think its called.
Which has direct driven motors.
And optical sensors that tells when the tape is at the end and reversers it.

Sorry it took so long to get back; but the device I use is sold through
Fry's Electronics. I purchased it about a year back.
Grace digital audio player from Fry's It came with Adacity the free
program but this is the upgrded one I guess. 
you need a trnsfer cable, which I think comes with the device. You put
your tape in, hit a hot key on adacity or whtever program you choose to
use and then hit a button on the device and it copies it as an me3 gfile.
It took me a bit of time to figure it all out but once I did, it worked
well and still does.

Re: transfering from cassettes

2013-09-08 Thread roger.south
Around 3/4 years ago I transferred both mine and my wife's CD collection to 
external hard drives. Certainly not as high tech as are being discussed 
here. I purchased a Magix Audio Cleaning Lab program very cheaply for, in 
your currency, around $15 and connected an ordinary CD player via the 
headphones socket to my soundcard and spent weeks slowly working through the 
pile of almost a thousand cassettes. I had the player and also the 3.5 mm 
male to male audio cable so my total outlay was minimal. I didn't know about 
Audicity then so could have saved that modest outlay if I'd heard of it. I 
get the impression some people seem to look for the complicated way rather 
than the simple one. Usually ends up saving cash.

I gave up on all those tricky switches and just went to Fry's and bought
a casset player that does it all. You just put in the tape, press the
right buttons an your tape plays and is saved on PC. You use the adocity
program to do the work. It was about $70 but i had at least 300 tapes to
transfer.
I guess you can do this with programs and a recorder but it was easier
for me this way.
