This worked great. I liked that it used regular cassette tapes. Everything was clear. I used for school and I sat in the back of the class room and it still picked up the professor great!

Sony TCM-200DV Standard Cassette Voice Recorder Feature

  • Double Recording Time - normal or half-normal speed
  • Voice Operated Recording
  • Playback Speed Control - +30% or -15%
  • External Microphone Jack
  • Up to 25 Hours of Battery Life
Sony's TCM-200DV cassette recorder offers a multitude of features which make it an excellent choice for a cassette voice recorder. The two channel, one track recorder promises accurate recording. For recording ease, Sony has installed double recording time and voice operated recording. The double recording time gives you the option of recording at a standard speed, or at half the standard speed, essentially giving you double the recording space. With voice operated record, you no longer have to worry about constantly shutting off and switching on the record button; with the first hint of sound, the TCM-200DV will begin recording. Sony's Sony-Matic automatic recording level control will keep your recordings at one constant level. Play-back editing or transcribing becomes more useful with this feature. If the internal microphone doesn't support your recording needs, simply plug in an external mic into the mic jack. p An essential playback feature is the playback speed control. With this adjustment, you can adjust the speed between thirty percent of normal and negative fifteen percent of normal. This is a great tool for those transferring interviews or lectures. If you find yourself fighting to hear the cassette player via the built-in speaker, plug earphones into the recorder and your troubles will be lessened. In fact, Sony has installed a L/R monaural earphone jack for clear and unobstructed hearing. p There are two options in powering this recorder. The first is an optional AC adaptor. If batteries are more useful, use the required two AA batteries; these batteries will run for up to twenty-five hours. With the LED battery level indicator you can be watchful of remaining battery time. With automatic shut-off, you can be assured that you will not be wasting batteries needlessly. p Other features include: clear voice recording system, cue and review, pause switch, stop/pause release function. The recorder's color is silver. pbWhat's in the Box/bbr Sony TCM-200DV cassette recorder and user's manual.

Double Speed Control Broke After Few Weeks - Skywalker - Durham, NC
Everything seems to work fine except for the double speed control. It broke after few weeks of use. Luckily, it is still within 30 days of purchase. So I returned it and plan to buy another one later.

Sony Failed to Work - VG -
I purchased this item with hopes of replacing the same item I had used for only 2 years. The item I used stopped working after 2 years. However, when the item arrived, there was not cord. I had to purchase another cord from radio shack to so it would play without AC. Unfortunately, it failed to play at all.

Disappointing for sure - - Dallas, TX United States
The tape recorder did a poor job with picking up sound. The sound on the microcassette recorder was muffled and didn't do a good job picking sounds in a classroom, especially if the speaker is using a microphone. If you are looking for a top of the line recorder, I strongly recommend going with Sony

Hey does it matter if you can hear what you record? Well, if it does then this is a great little recorder, with not a big price.brVariable speeds.

Great recorder BUT no external mic jack! - T. Sheppard - Jeffersonville, IN USA
I was very impressed with this product until I needed an external mic jack. It does not have one. Considering the price paid, it should. I ended up having to spend an additional to get another machine that has one! I'll be selling my Sony, which is a shame as the clarity and functioning of this machine are superb!

Olympus Pearlcorder S701 Microcassette Recorder (S701ACC) Reviews



More Picture


I purchased this recorder for my 87 year old father and needed something simple to use that is high enough quality for the price. I tested it myself and then showed him how to use it. (Older people have difficulties with technology). It has large enough buttons for his fingers and he seemed to pick up on how it works quite easily. He enjoys it for bible studies so he can play it back later when he gets home since he sometimes misses hearing things due to his age. This also keeps him busy with something to do and he really enjoys his new toy and talking out loud now. (Maybe I shouldh't have bought it). Anyway, my brother sent him a digital one but I knew that wouldn't work out....too complicated. This is a great little recorder for using at studies, or reading out loud essays or memoirs and I would place the recorded sound quality at average to good.

Olympus Pearlcorder S701 Microcassette Recorder (S701ACC) Feature

  • AA battery powered microcassette recorder

Finnaly, a good portable dictaphone without voice activation - K2inMB -
My boss is of the old school and dictates all his work. He likes a portable dictaphone because he dictates at odd times, when on the road, at home on the weekends, etc. Dictaphone itself stopped producing the portable dictaphone he liked, so we've been on a quest for one that he did like. And this seems to be it! It's easy to operate, the dictation is clear and, unlike voice activated systems, doesn't record football games and other noise when it is sitting in his briefcase.
