Heya guys, I'm about to ask the stupidest/noob question ever. So i apologize.
I just got my 303, really loving it, and I've put together a lot of interesting samples/beats. Unfortunately i know nothing about production have a serious lack of funds, and I am the least computer saavy person I know, but i remember hearing someone say you could record your beats from the sp directly to cassette tape? Is this true? If so what machine would i need to do so?

Thanks for any info, I am very sorry for my lack of knowledge.

PEACE

a tascam 4-track cassette recorder will work great for what you want to do. it has rca ins and, well, 4 tracks :D they go used on ebay for like 40-60 bucks. dont forget to track down the special tapes they require. i think they are type II tapes if im not mistaken. welcome to the forums "shmiddy". :D :) :lol: :o :D :) :lol: :o

Any tape deck with a record button and rca ins will work. But yeah, a 4 track would be ideal.

I'm also in the market for a cassette recorder. I've found a few Tascam 424s for sale, are there any better choices or alternatives? Or would the 424 work well?
