Just ordered one thanks to Veronica's video, so waiting patiently for April!

Is there an option to switch between headphone level output and line level output?  I plan to use use this as a playback device to record digital audio (FLAC mostly) to high end cassettes (Nakamichi ZX-7 deck, Type II and IV cassettes).

Oh, does this have gapless playback?

Thanks!

In sound settings there's a control for changing the maximum volume limit between "Line level (-10dB)"; "CD Level (+6dB)"; and "Maximum (+10dB)". There's also a jumper you can solder to lower the impedance, its tuned for high-z headphones out of the box

Thanks!  If I don't make the jumper, what is the issue with having the higher impedance when using it as a line out?  I'd like to be able to use this jack for both headphones and line out.

Also, what about gapless playback?

Gapless is there, but it's not perfect for MP3.

I really just mentioned it because I remembered it; I think it would be counterproductive for you

But more importantly, I think I misunderstood it anyway; you can read about in this update for the exact details

Super cool use case, hope it works well for you! Setting the volume limit to line-level and volume 100% should work well here as a start. You'll want to confirm that your recorder can handle such a big signal without clipping, but if it can then you should be able to get a signal out of Tangara that's more than good enough for cassette recording. LMK how you go!
