Even better - people collect vinyl records

When I bought a record player my daughter assumed the sound would come out of the player itself. I had to explain that it doesn't do that and that you had to connect it to the stereo

Panasonic Slim line RQ-2102 AC/DC Auto-stop portable Cassette Recorder

Another nick name for them is shoe box recorded

Nostalgia

You can’t get a better sound from mp3. 320kbs is 20mhz and clear sound is 22mhz. You can’t generate the lost information. (You can and I know how but it’s advanced) if you want to hook it up just run a 3.5mm audio jack from the headphones jack of the computer into the external mic jack of the recorder but it’s not going to make it sound any better. If you want true audio from a cassette use a professional type s cassette type 3 and record it from an analog or lossless source with a Dolby s cassette deck

Most cassette decks have RCA (Red/White cables) input that you can plug into with an RCA - to - 3.5mm adapter, which you could pop anything with 3.5 output into, including directly to your computer or phone to play audio through into it. Some cassette recorders (not the same as decks) will have 3.5mm AUX/MIC ports, which should function similarly, but I can't say for certain it'll give a clear or stereo signal, since mine doesn't.

Go to hell

That varies you can get a wide range of recording time (example a 60 minute tape) it is actually 30 minutes on each side Google "cassette tape length"

The length of the cassette/2 on each side

Each tape has a number on it that (usually) signifies the runtime of the cassette in total (you can calculate per side by doing that number divided by 2). Sometimes cassettes will have an extra bit of time at the end (depending on manufacturer) and sometimes you might end up with less. The best way to find out is by recording the output directly into a computer and timing when the noise/audio starts and stops.

Frida Tavira, just rewind and record on top of the previous recording.

or use a magnet so you don’t have to do that I know it works on feral tapes I have valuable stuff on metal tapes so I don’t know about metal tapes though

You can, you just have to put tape over the little square shaped holes on the edge opposite to the side where the tape is visible.

Above reply is the solution, but the inverse is true if you find yourself using blank cassettes, and you don't want them overwritten. No Hole = Read / Write Hole = Read Only

Sure

@@JuanGallardoTeruel Thank you very much!

Rewind the cassette to the minute/section you want to delete and re-record over that section

Use a strong magnet over the tape. It should destroy the magnetism of the tape fairly easily
