Hello everyone,
Hope you are all doing well.
I impulse bought this cassette tape recorder on eBay as this was a new thing I kind of wanted to try. After messing around with it for a few days I've realised that It’s been a wonderful practice tool that allowed me to work on my musicality and discipline while recording. Crazy to think people use to make full albums on 4-track tape machines.
This one does not sound the best. It is a bit noisy and the playback sounds a bit flimsy (it can be a cool effect for lofi stuff though). If I get better at working with it, I might want to invest in a better one.
Here's a short video I made with it:

One thing that really made it more fun for me was to get a second hand rack reverb/effects unit to put in the aux send/return. You can get ones on eBay that are relatively cheap (I got a Lexicon MPX one, cheaper than what I've paid for a lot of my effects pedals. It can do a huge amount of stuff as well as the reverbs).
Although that would take you away from the 'non digital' idea I guess.
