what is the difference between the Cassette and DAT?
what is the difference between the Cassette and DAT(Digital Audio Tape)? does it need certain devices to play and record with?
Just in case you are stupid...
Cassette usually refers to analogue cassettes, which are terrible for sound reproduction, lots of noise, wears easily on cheaper tapes, and generally not used anymore.
DAT is a digital type of cassette, which has carved itself a niche in the amateur recording industry, due to its brilliant sound reproduction, large capacity, ability to vary recording quality, robust (er) construction.
Both require different types of equipment.
I wonder if you were referring to a third type of media, called Digital Cassette Recorders (DCR?), which I once had. They were able to be back compatible (play your old analogue cassettes) as well as new cassettes that were both physically and acoustically different - as they could record and playback digitally recorded media too, but not that of DAT. It was Phillips who lead the way, and it managed to flop too.
