Hi Susan,
You are very fortunate to have been able to purchase a cassette recorder at all
these days.
I understand that a number of lines have been now discontinued!
It will only be a matter of time (and not too long I reckon) that
tape-recorders will be definitely a thing of the past; unless The Antiques
Roadshow possibly! (smile)!
I suggest that folk like myself who have important and much-loved cassettes
should check out their recorders and replace them to play the cassettes if
necessary.
There are ways to transfer cassette content to digital but I haven't gone down
that road as yet anyway; Audacity I think is the name of the programme.
I have a Merantz which I have been made offers for but no thanks I will hang on
to it; served/serves me well!
Don't know The Shoebox at all but it sounds quite handy to use.
I know that there is a Sony store too here in Dublin's O'connell Street close
to Eden Quay.
Best,
Tony

Hello Susan,
I think I know the recorder you are writing about.
it is a Philip's recorder, and it indeed has piano keys, and a volume
control on the right hand side of it.
I still have such a recorder to play the odd tapes.
the model number is:
type d 6280-00

hi Joe,
no this takes ordinary cassettes, it is like the shoe box, lies on it's
back and has a piano keybord like controls, ie from left to right, record,
play, fast rewind, fast forward, stop and pause.
hope this makes sense, it is about 12 years old.
many thanks

hello susan, can you explain a little more what you mean by shoe box
tape recorder, most recorders today are digital recorders with SD cards,
although some people still use minidisk recorders, most audio journalists
today are as i say using the digital recorders, some of them are not very
blind friendly, i'm currently using the plextor recorder, it is excellent for
people with sight loss, and the quality is brilliant, don't know if this helps,
take care, travel safely, joe.
