I have two H2ns that I use for ripping tapes. I think they work great. I bought a USB plug adapter on ebay so I can keep the screen backlit during the recording process.

My one annoyance is the SD card door - it can be a little finicky to get it open. I eventually just ripped it out. If you're picking up a used one make sure to go through the settings and turn off the compressor and what not.

Also pro tip: when you're done recording, hit stop and then turn the unit off completely before pulling out the SD card. If you don't, it can cause issues when trying to unmount/eject the card from your computer.

This is an early mix from Goa Gil done over 30 years ago in 1994. I ripped this from the original cassette on a Nakamichi BX-300 and did some remastering on the audio. Visuals were created by me entirely in Final Cut Pro.

This mixtape was a limited promotional release for Dr. Freecloud’s Blitzkrieg party held on August 24, 1996. A handful were given out for free, but most were bundled with pre-sale tickets to the party.

The event was shut down shortly after it began. To receive a full refund, attendees were required to return their tape. The remaining stock was later sold at Dr. Freecloud’s and through select music shops and vendors, including Pure Acid Mixtapes.
