or plug in external speakers
Q2. The cassette player would not play on regular speed.
Before leave the factory, all the cassette players are checked and adjusted with
technical instruments. So normally, it is quite a rare case. If you happen to
meetthis problem, please try to change another cassette to play. If the speed is
stiliregular, you may try to adjust the speed on your own by spinning a small hole
which is in the lower right corner of the sticker back in the device (see the image,
below). When you find the small hole, you can use a tiny needle or screw driver to
spin the hole for speed adjustment.
Q1. There's a humming noise after converting to MP3 files.
Generally this issue occurs because desktop computer is directly connected
with use cable for power supply of cassette player and at the meantime, use
the desktop computer to convert cassettes, which results in a humming noise
after the conversion. As the ADC amplifier and other sensitive circuits are built
in the device, the electricity of the device may not perfectly match with desktop
computer if connecting to desktop computer it would easily cause
electromagnetic interference. If it's in this case, please try to use a charger as
power supply or change another computer.
