Whether your goal is to record audio and make CDs to present a
performance or composition for evaluation, to advance your playing
skills with the help of high-tech learning tools, to preserve and
archive important audio, or to capture unforgettable moments like
concerts or public events, the CD-2 will do the job quickly and simply
- and with professional-quality results.
Easy Recording
Recording is a breeze on the CD-2. A high-quality stereo microphone is
built in for top-grade, on-the-spot recording; additional mics can be
plugged in as well. The CD-2 records directly onto CDs. So start
playing, and as soon as you're done you'll have a finished,
professional CD! For extra long recording times (complete concerts,
church services, etc.), the CD-2 offers recording to popular card
(CompactFlash) media, and supports up to 2 GB capacity for
approximately six hours of recording time at 16 Bit/44.1 kHz linear
mode.
Edit Your Recordings!
When recording to CompactFlash, your audio can be edited using
functions such as Audio Level Adjustment, Song Erase, and Trim for
cutting out silence between songs. Once you have everything the way you
want, you can burn your performance directly to CD.
Music-Training Support
Students will appreciate the CD-2's usefulness as an
educational/practice tool, thanks to its built-in stereo speakers,
speed/pitch control, tuner, and metronome. You can easily record
lessons or musical passages, and play them back at a slower tempo while
retaining the original pitch. Or change the pitch of the audio and play
along indifferent key signatures. The CD-2 provides some great learning
advantages for all levels of students.
Convenient Connections
The CD-2 makes it easy to get audio in and out. For ultra convenience,
a stereo microphone is built-in, so all you have to do is point and
shoot. Or, if desired, you can plug in external mics with the two XLR
inputs, complete with phantom power. A pair of RCA inputs and outputs
is provided for convenient connection to electronic piano, CD player or
stereos; using the 1/4-inch inputs you can plug guitars, mics, and
other instruments directly into the CD-2. And if you like, you can use
the built-in guitar effects or reverb to greatly enhance your guitar or
vocal sounds.
Onboard Effects
Enhance your recordings with the CD-2's lineup of professional audio
effects, such as reverb, EQ, and compression. Make your recordings
sound more ambient and lush, or punchy and crisp. Special tools are
also provided for guitar and vocals, and the onboard Mastering effects
help you put the final polish on your audio before you burn it CD. You
won't believe how good your recordings can sound, and how friendly the
CD-2's tools are to use.
