Reloop Tape - USB Mixtape Recorder
The mixtape is back!
DJs....you know the situation. Inspiration hits you and you want to record a new live mix to share with friends or promoters online. The only issue is, there's no fast or hassle-free way of capturing the moment without the need of a computer and recording software. Reloop has created a smart solution to this problem with the launch of TAPE - an easy and secure digital recording device with the retro design of the beloved mixtape.
3 basic stepsWith TAPE, there are only 3 basic steps: Step 1. Connect your USB drive. Step 2. Connect your mixer and input cable. Step 3. Press the Record button. And that's it.
Highly versatile possibilitiesThe beauty of TAPE is that your mixes are recorded in digital MP3 format straight onto a USB drive. There's no need to burn the recording - you can simply pass it on to friends or feed it directly to your media player. Thanks to the phono/line switch including a GND grounding post, digitalizing your vinyl classics is also a breeze. Even mixers that do not feature a separate record output can be connected as Reloop has included a smart thru port which routes the signal to the amplifier or speakers. The possibilities are highly versatile.
Good by experienceThe recording quality can be adjusted to 192 or 320 kbps via a switch, depending on your requirements and available storage space.
Even in dark surroundings like nightclubs, convenient status LEDs keep you informed about the active power supply, whether a USB storage device is connected, current recordings, and whether the incoming levels are in the green or not.
To meet the needs of the modern travelling DJ, Reloop has included a universal adapter so you can record independently of the local power connections. Upload it later in the hotel and send it out directly to your fan base, saving you time so you can keep collecting air miles hassle free.
