This is a cassette player for albums. I have reproduced experiences of listening music with cassette tapes. For example, changing rotation speed of reels based on tape amount, animation of wrapping end of tape to reels, a sound of operation, song list like cassette index cards. Would you listen to albums like you did in old days? What you can do You can strain to hear before the first song starts. On skip operation, The tape may run over the position you want to set at. You can switch a song experimentally by pressing the button to play the other side. If you cannot get a current song name, you can infer which song is playing from the amount of tape on each reel. You can look at the tape that seems to be about to end but doesn’t readily end. You can verify changing speed of rotation while fwd or rev processes. You can be deep in lingering of the album with reels rounding after the last song played. The mechanical sound at end of tape makes you feel a sense of achievement and a little missing. How to use Set an album randomly and play it. About Lite Version Played songs are selected at random. If total time is over 30 minutes, app stops selecting. An album is selected randomly. Counter doesn't work. Auto reverse doesn't work. One player type. One tape type. Caution This app imports music included in the device as an album. Cloud sources don’t be selected. The button drawn right direction on the player is assigned playing side A. Left direction is side B. This app plays songs with using the iPod function on iOS. Another app using it as same may course problems. This app uses year data set in a song. If a set year is newer and an actual year is older, it is treated as a new one. Sound effects like tapes(hiss noise, warm high frequency) don't be installed.
