I forgot to mention that recording accuracy also depends on the quality of the SD card and the level conversion circuitry, of course. I'm using a class 10, HC I "SanDisk Ultra" microSD card.
For further assessment, If anyone reading this thread has a DC2N, they could carry out the Freeload test and share the TAP files.
It read a post some time ago about sorting the files on the SD-card. I know the tapuino doesn't do this, so here is the tool that can sort the SD-card for you.
I downloaded this when I was working with the dingoo handheld, this device had the same 'problem'.

I uploaded it here.
I found a fellow in the Netherlands who owns a DC2N v1 and he kindly did the test for us. The files are available here (there's a DC2N-specific DMP file, besides the normal TAP file). I tried the TAP file with Vice and the game loaded and started fine. Then I isolated the turbo section in this TAP file as well as in one of my Tapuino recordings and got the pulse frequencies via Tapclean. Here they are:
Tapuino
0x1E (153)
0x1F (332)
0x20 (813)
0x21 (382231)
0x22 (22228 )
0x24 (9)
0x42 (153)
0x43 (212)
0x44 (1061)
0x45 (272127)
DC2N
0x21 (305)
0x22 (405133)
0x25 (9)
0x45 (38406)
0x46 (235467)
Tapclean optimized
0x24 (405767)
0x42 (273553)
Just to say I built my stripboard Tapuino today and it works!
Only issue was trying to compile sketch. I was removing the // and # in the config file. Too much playing around with comments on Raspberry Pi!! Once I removed the // and left the # all was good :)
Just got to but it all in a case and get a back shell for the cassette port connector.
Thanks for creating this project.
Hi all,
Life got in the way but I've finally merged everything into master and created a new release: https://github.com/sweetlilmre/tapui...tag/2.5.0-beta
Enjoy!

Great! Can't wait to flash it!
Hi! It's pretty much what you've been testing, so no major surprises. I want to make a very slim test build to look at recording accuracy and need to get back to you about the awesome data you posted above. Time has not been on my side lately.

A while ago I posted pics of a tapuino inside a c64c, screen in lid and buttons poking out the rear of the case. All great, then I got a clear case for my c64c and it went under the knife to cut my tapuino into it, serial screen in the lid, exactly the same.
I'll add some more once I've got the thing working as for some reason all buttons work but once a t64 is selected it won't do anything after that. I lost my microsd from the first one so I may be forgetting something very obvious indeed:)
dual sid and wires to be hooked up from phono's on the back. the hole for the screen needs more work to fit right. But the Tapuino..pride of place.
ps! The plastic in those new cases is hard as nails compared to an original case. I'll never do this again, too bloody hard !

I need send thanks to a pm pointing out of course it couldn't use t64 has to be tap. Doh so obvious now, said I lost my old card :) cheers
Damn! I feel right privileged seeing a Tapuino built into that case. Good work sir!
