Not sure I'd want the bulk/weight in a live situation but that's actually a good idea.
I'm shocked that they used a plain old sd card and not some proprietary medium they won't support in six months. Did Henry hit his head or something?

 

[Elias Graves]

Now if they can just come up with a cable that will make the asstone signals I put into it sound like Chet so I had something worth recording...

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

Nope.

Always record. It's really easy. You don't need a special cable. Just use the apps/programs/cassettes you already have.

It’s definitely convenient. But I’m not inclined to give a fuck about a product that makes claims about price but has no list price.

"A STUDIO QUALITY RECORDER / PREAMPFOR THE PRICE OF AN OUTSTANDING CABLE"


To me, that means if you have to ask, you can't afford it.

Here ya go. $899 for an outstanding cable.

Good lord, who would want to hear anything I fumbled through again? Even I don't want to hear that.

The articles that I saw estimated a pricetag of around $99. At that price, it could be a good deal. It will be interesting to see if this is actually better than a handheld recorder. It does say that you can plug it into the output of a PA, so I assume that it can capture vocals, or a whole band sound, as well as a single guitar.

if it could capture the whole band decently, that would be kinda cool.
otherwise, no point, afaic

$100 is reasonable.

Holy shit, a good idea from Gibson? What the fuck is going on here?

 

[bsman]

For a while, I had an Ovation with the "iDea" preamp (built in recorder and mic), but I found that the mid didn't pick up my singing too well, and that frankly it was just as easy to use my Tascam DR1 recorder...

You’ll forget about it when Henry unveils the next generation of robot guitar with built-in multi-fx.

 

[CBHScott]

Isn't this the same principle as the Line 6 Backtrack, which was a monumental failure?

 

[Scott_Abene]

you know... at first I looked at this thing and thought... What a nightmare that only a kid would buy and then regret.

After thinking about it for a bit I have to say that something like this would be sweet for rehearsals. As an improviser I would be interested in listening back to what I did and whether or not I nailed it or need to work on certain things. So I think that could be useful.

I wonder if you can play through during playback. You know, so you can solo over your rhythm backing track and have them mixed.

I won't need it... the mixer I'm going to get, the Allen and Heath Qu-16, can record all 16 channels plus the 2 track master out to a USB hard drive with no PC necessary. You can actually use it to create a virtual sound check as well.

Is that thing turbo charged?
