NOTICE: This product has been discontinued and is no longer available.
'The StudioDock is the first device that enables anyone with an iPad to
create, produce, and perform music with virtually any pro audio gear or
instruments. The StudioDock is a universal docking station specifically
designed for the iPad, and it gives musicians, recording engineers, and
music producers the connectivity they need to create and perform with
iPad. Connect all your pro audio gear to virtually any app in the App
Store with the StudioDock.
FLEXIBLE FUNCTIONALITY
Songwriters,
music producers and performers of all kinds will find that the
StudioDock connects the iPad?s powerful processor, touch-screen
interface and extensive library of apps to their collection of
microphones, instruments, professional speaker and PA systems, MIDI
controllers, sound modules, video projectors and much more.
With
the StudioDock and an iPad, musicians and producers can record,
perform, craft and create music in virtually any situation or location.
Built to accommodate all current app-development standards including
Core MIDI, the StudioDock is a universal device that bridges your
choice of music-creation apps, instruments, and devices.
COMPLETE CONNECTIVITY
The
StudioDock provides microphone and instrument users with two
combination XLR and 1/4-inch inputs, each with its own gain control and
switchable phantom power for condenser microphones. Guitarists and
bassists will appreciate the StudioDock?s guitar-direct switch,
enabling them to play, perform and record right into amplifier- and
effects-modeling apps. Bands can connect outputs from their mixer and
easily record their performances and rehearsals or use the StudioDock
as a metronome or loop-playback device. Producers can use the
StudioDock?s MIDI jacks to sequence external keyboards, samplers, drum
machines and synthesizers, or perform using the StudioDock as the sound
module and their favorite MIDI-compliant keyboard, drum pad or other
controller. An assignable 1/4-inch footswitch input enables remote
control of any app-defined function such as stop/start or record. Users
can also connect the StudioDock to their Mac or PC using the USB port
to send MIDI back and forth for creative, new applications of the iPad
and computer used in tandem.
Users can connect the
StudioDock?s stereo pair of 1/4-inch main outputs to studio monitors
for critical listening, or to PA systems for use in performance
settings. They can monitor on headphones, and independently control the
levels of the two outputs, each on its own knob. Recording musicians
will appreciate the StudioDock?s direct-monitor switch, which enables
them to toggle between the incoming and playback signal on their
headphones. Rounding out the StudioDock?s output section is a composite
video connector, enabling users to employ the StudioDock as a source
for video projection behind bands on stage, or for connection to most
televisions and computer monitors.
RUGGED RELIABILITY
The
StudioDock was built for the real world. Whether you're keeping it in
the safety of the studio or taking it out for recording or performance
use in the club or on tour, the StudioDock will not only deliver the
connectivity you need for audio applications, but it also serves as a
rugged, protective case for the iPad. The StudioDock completely houses
the iPad on the bottom and three side surfaces. It also encases the
iPad's screen in a protective bezel on three of its four edges, further
shielding the mobile computing device from the potential for damage in
punishing environments.
The applications of the iPad for music
creation, production, and performance are limited only by your
creativity. As an imaginative, cutting-edge music maker, the StudioDock
empowers you to seamlessly connect the world of pro audio gear and
instruments to the iPad and the massive collection of apps.
