Can I record from USB to cassette?

Yes! Due to popular demand, we added USB-to-cassette recording to the RETRO-39. Now you can easily record MP3 files from a USB drive directly onto cassette tape. You can also record from cassette, Bluetooth, FM Radio, MIC, or Line-in to USB.

My recorder is eating tapes, what should I do?

Ensure tapes are intact; clean the heads. If issues persist, contact support.

Are batteries or an AC adapter included?

Batteries not included. Some models come with an AC adapter; check the package.

The buttons are hard to press, any advice?

Clean around buttons with a soft cloth. If still stuck, contact support.

Can I connect to a computer or phone?

No, the USB is only for flash drives and can't connect to computers or phones. Bluetooth pairs with smartphones and computers to receive audio.
