Tapeman

The Tapeman is a brand of tape-recorder used in Gravity Falls.

History
The Tapeman is first used by Soos in the "Bottomless Pit!," during Dipper's "Voice Over" story he used it to record Dipper's voice and make a techno-remix out of it, Dipper's voice remix, Dipper then gets mad and takes it without even listing to the end of it. Later in the episode it is seen again when Dipper is discouraged because of the consequences of his new voice. He then decides to listen to the end of the song and realizes that his voice made him unique.

The Tapeman makes another appearance in "Boyz Crazy." After Dipper figures out how Robbie’s song is able to control Wendy he uses it to record the hidden message in the song. Later, Dipper uses the tape recorder to show Wendy the real message behind the song; after she shuns him for it he looks at the Tape Man and regrets what he has done.

Appearance
The Tapeman has the look of an ordinary tape recorder except that it has TAPEMAN written in white in the center.
