Grace Tape 2 USB - Cassette to Digital Archiving Now Fun Sized

While cassette to digital transfer systems are nothing new, getting them down to size and within a reasonable budget is something to be heralded. The Grace Tape 2 USB system is a nearly portable sized cassette player with USB output. At less than half the size of cassette capture devices the Grace system can be easily used at and stored without having to find it permanent residence amongst your high end gear or on your desk.

Audio must be captured as WAV output then converted to other formats as direct to MP3 is not really an option with the included Audacity software. Plug-ins are readily available to help with conversion if that's your goal but be prepared for the extra step before you can take your tunes with you. Audacity is freeware, but very full featured and adored by a large following. You also have access to all the standard features of a familiar cassette recorder, for those of us old enough to have used one, and classic RCA output is an option as well if that's all you need. Although not nearly as cheap as a piecemeal audio transfer system its still quite reasonable at $129.
