How does this work with multi-load games like Knight Games, where the computer would remote control the cassette player to load the game in playable segments?
there is a few articles on the web about adding an external port. www.cpcwiki.eu/forum/amstrad-cpc-hardware/hi-has-anyone-ever-done-the-tape-in-mod-on-a-cpc-464/
The "play" and "pause" buttons on my Amstrad CPC do not work, other than that the computer is fine. Would this device work in my case with a broken play button ?
No. Amstrad games are not stored digitally as MP3 format.. they are stored in CDT, TZX or TAP file format. This devices converts those formats into audio.
