Hello all,

I've just started chatting with someone in NL who is looking for a low end digital voice/field recorder, for use in digitizing some cassettes. I'm familiar with the stuff sold here in US (Tascam, Sony, even Olympus or Philips). I'd even suggest something used, but these folks have no knowledgeable way to evaluate stuff.

I'd like to recommend something I trust, with familiar controls etc. When I look at the sellers they mentioned (bol.com, coolblue.nl) there seems to be less selection and higher prices than I see here in the states. Can anybody recommend some other vendors who sell this kind of stuff in NL that I could view online?

Thanks as always. And keep smiling.

Personally, I would recommend the TASCAM FR-AV2. A Netherlands distributor is:

Watch this video for a good run through on its features. It has a 3.5 mm input which would be perfect for copying from cassette players.
