Cassette player in Atomic Heart (or cassette) is an additional upgrade for ranged weapons that grants attacks elemental damage: electric, fiery or ice. The problem is that Atomic Heart doesn't explain to players how to attach cassettes to cannons, and sometimes additional effects during combat can be extremely useful, because many enemies have their own vulnerabilities.
The guide below will show you how to put a cassette player in Atomic Heart, as well as explain how to upgrade and find a cassette.
How to Install a Cassette Player in Atomic Heart
In order to use the cassette player, Major Nechaev needs to perform a number of simple steps.
Upgrade your weapons

- go to "Eleanor" and select the replica "Modernization of the arsenal";
- click on the weapon, open the section "Improvements", and then go to the tab"cassette player";
- install "Cassette model”, holding RMB.
After that, you can insert cassettes into improved weapons.
Find or create a cassette

Exploring various locations during the passage of the main story campaign and visiting polygons, you will encounter boxes, iron chests and Lutyagins, from where you can get an electric, fire or ice cassette with some chance.
Use a cassette
In order to put a cassette player on a weapon, you must:
- open "Weapon wheel", holding down" TAB ";
- expand the additional section of the quick access panel;
- point to the desired cassette and use the "Install».
How to upgrade the cassette player in Atomic Heart
Each cassette found has its own capacity - the number of elemental shots made from weapons depends on it. To increase the initially set number, you need to learn the passive skill "Volumetric cassettes” with the following description: “The capacity of cassettes is increasing.”
To do this, go to "Eleanor" and open the "Character" section. Price - 27 neuropolymers.
Where to find cassette blueprints
If you like to play from elemental damage, it's time to think about finding recipes that will allow you to create different types of cassette players.
fire cassette
Location: Room with a hole near the landing to the Hot shop (Vavilov complex).
The task: "In an overgrown park"=>"They want to green Mars" (intermediate task leading to the main mission "Into the thick of it»; reveals the location of the Hot Shop).
On the way to the boiler room, visit a room with a huge hole in the wall, and find an iron chest nearby. Examine it for a fire cassette recipe.
electrical cassette
Location: Greenhouse room next to the Hot shop (complex "Vavilov").
The task: "In an overgrown park"=>"Into the thick of it».
After picking up the polymer flask from the Hot Shop, leave the room through the armored door and immediately turn right. Drop down to the level below by using the opening on the floor. Thus, find yourself in a spacious greenhouse, where you will find an iron chest with a drawing of an electrical cassette (exit through an open opening, above the stairs).
ice cassette
Location: Algoshop of the Vavilov complex.
The task: "In an overgrown park"=>"Race against time».
Move in the direction of Algoseh: soon exit to a spacious corridor and meet the boss for the first time EZhK-7 "Hedgehog". Do not rush to jump down. Go to savezone (left side door) and examine the iron chest to get an ice cassette blueprint.
What to do if you missed a drawing
If you missed the recipe for the "elemental" cassette, don't worry: most of the blueprints that fall out of the chests are randomized. Therefore, if you forgot to search the iron chest, which could contain a blank for the cassette player, with 100% probability you will find it in the near future.
