Combining both a CD player and a cassette deck in a single 3U rack-mount chassis, the TASCAM CD-A700 delivers an economical, versatile and space-efficient music playback solution for restaurants, dance studios and other background music applications. The CD-A700 can operate continuously CD-to-tape and tape-to-CD for extended, uninterrupted play. Uniquely, ±12% pitch control is provided for both CD and cassette playback to adjust tempo in dance studios. Both decks employ the latest logic control features which can also be controlled remotely via a parallel port for automated playback.

The CD-A700 is an exceptionally user-friendly solution for a wide range of applications.
