Do you ever sleep?
Which inputs are your using on your digital recorder? Someone uses a Roland Sonar V-STUDIO 100 and a Micron Tape recorder with no probs once the optimal volume settings were determined. The V-STUDIO 100 specs are a little overboard.
The microbee's cassette interface is just a couple of bit bashed I/O bits and seeing if it works properly is a relative doddle.
Do you have an oscilloscope or equivalent by any chance?
It does make fixing these things much easier.
If not, you can use a .wav waveform viewer to spot any anomalies on the recording.
For checking the input circuit, i.e. the CA3140 you can use something like a USB oscilloscope or equivalent to record the incoming bitstream.
The Digilent Analog Discovery is handy for the recording but any equivalent will do (e.g. Red Pitaya, POScope). They're just like a 21st Century Microbees! Fun Gadgets!!
