    Hi All,

    So i have just become the proud owner of one of these in its case:
    m-1pd_1.jpg


    I would now really like to make some micro cassettes to play in it and thats where i am stumped. I need to record some cassettes, the device has a record function but no line in only microphone which i assume is just for recording voice.

    What would be my best way of recording some cassettes? I am assuming i need to buy a micro cassette deck or a device with line in? If i buy a device with line in i guess it has to be stereo to? Was hard enough finding this one!

    Any help or advice would be great

    I have one Sanyo microcassette recorder of the mid 90s, and is dead of laugh in a corner of my bedroom, i try to record música throught the mic input jack but the sound quality of the music is very poor :( i only use this for catching Electronic Voice Phenomena, but its hard to find new cassettes. Greetings and good luck ;)

    A tiny beauty ! Aiwa CS W7 would be a great companion ,though it's rare and difficult to change belts at the microcassette section.
    Sanyo WMR-CM, Sanyo M-W50 and Sanyo AKA Fisher PH-M77 are good alternatives but also rare.
    A deck at a good price might be a faster solution to enjoy the little jewel.:)
