Panasonic Voice IC Recorder Tape Player RR-SR30
Cassette deck nostalgic retro design
What's that you're holding?! A cassette tape recorder?! No, it's not. It's a voice recorder. There's no actual tape involved, the recording is stored on handy MP3 files. Nonetheless, Panasonic is marketing the Voice IC Recorder Tape Player RR-SR30 as a gadget that will make your grandfather cry! Well, we're not sure if that's true but it is very nostalgic to hold a cassette tape recorder like this in your hand.
The retro tone is completed by the throwback style of the buttons. Well, what did you expect? A touchscreen?! That said, there is still plenty of functionality in this nifty compact recorder, including speakers and stereo mic recording. You can playback at 1.5 and 0.7 speeds, plus you can double your recording length by using the monaural function.
