Tascam Revives CD-A580 Cassette Recorder/CD Player/USB Flash Drive Recorder

Tascam announced the re-launch of the original CD-A580 Cassette Recorder/CD Player/USB Flash Drive Recorder, which in 2017 finally replaced the CD-A500MkII, the successor of the original CD-A550. By combining a cassette recorder, CD player and USB flash drive recorder/player into a rack-mountable unit, the CD-A550/580 was designed to be a playback device for installed sound applications. Gradually, it was in fact adopted by people who just needed something to playback their old cassettes and their old CDs, and wanted to copy those to a digital file.
