Opry99er Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Who still uses a program recorder? I have no space here for a PEB rig, so I am contemplating getting out my console and program recorder and putting them in my TV stand for easy access to XB saving/loading and cart gaming. I got to thinking about this and it just got me wondering... How many of you use your program recorder more than once a month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Mich, at the moment Trying old cassettes sometimes for fun, or when coming from eBay, and also to "fresh" them up giving them a full forward/rewind, but only once a decade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unhuman Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) If you're going to do that... Why not get a cheap but effective MP3 player and use that instead of a cassette player? It'd be tiny, easier (maybe?) to find stuff and more reliable. Or, use a CF7+ My TI doesn't live with my TV, but it's pretty easy to get it out and connect to the dangling audio video cables I have in the cabinet. When my daughter and I code, that's how we do it. Edited April 7, 2015 by unhuman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opry99er Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 My CF7 kicked it. I want a nanoPEB, but cant really afford any more TI expenditures right now. Maybe next time a batch comes up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkdrummer Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Don't forget that if you have 32k on board in the console you can run E/A programs from cassette also. I've tried it, it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 My CF7 kicked it... Mine died once too, but Custodio was happy to exchange it. I'd write to him and see. Oh and I still use a real TI Program recorder. Good to keep it in use before belts, rollers and tires turn to mush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
am1933 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I still use mine every now and again, even more so now I have the official TI program recorder, I added a few tapes to my collection recently which means "you just have to test them" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
