Tascam MPB-T1 Mobile Bass Trainer - MP3
TASCAM's MP-BT1 is the first MP3 player also designed as a fun and Mobile Bass trainer, with enough Memory to store up to 240 songs. Parts can be slowed down, looped and even eliminated to help you to learn new riffs. Play back MP3s using Variable Speed Audition, which slows down the speed without changing the pitch, and sections can be seamlessly looped while practicing tricky passages. Songs can even be pitched up or down to match the Tuning of your bass, so you don't have to re- tune for every song. The bass Input lets you to rock along with multi-effects, including a bass canceller so you can play along with your favorite bands. The MP-BT1 uses a high-speed USB connection to load up MP3s and charge the built-in Battery (an Optional power supply is also available). ZIP through your MP3 collection using a Data wheel, Dedicated buttons and a graphical LCD display. A rechargeable 9-hour Lithium ion battery is built into the unit, and an optional power supply is also available. A Tuner and metronome are also built- in. All of this is packed into an MP3 player smaller than a stomp box, so stuff it in your backpack, Gig bag or back pocket and hit the road.

    I haven't used this unit much since I purchased it, but from the little I've used it, it seems like a good device. Doesn't feel cheap or flimsy and the interface is fairly intuitive. Basic bass effects are included such as compression, and it sounds better than most headphone amps I've used previously, such as the Rockman Bass Ace (sounded good, but too cheaply made), and the Pocket Rockit (sounded horrible and accessing the controls is near impossible when plugged in). The only thing this thing is lacking is a direct input for an external sound source, such as an iPod or CD player (the Pandora from Korg does have this feature). Otherwise, be prepared to rip your CDs to MP3 (or convert any sound files you have in other formats such as M4A, FLAC, etc) to play along with. The good news is that this unit has 1GB of storage, which should be ample for practicing if you keep to a low bit-rate.

    I have owned this for over 3 months - it is awsome. Recieved as gift from wife. That and the leather case she bought with my name from ValetStand com. This is the first time ever I can just clip on my trainer and jam. The leather case is a must.

    I bought a Tascam bass trainer from Daddy's. An incredible machine. It slows down the music so you can hear every note clearly. Very cool. ANTonline sucks. This order was cancelled TWICE by ANTonline for no reason at all. The first time they said their price was a mistake, and they would sell me one at a slightly higher price. So I order at the new price but they cancel the order AGAIN!!!. This time no reason is given. Each time I need to wait several days before they get around to canceling the order. Goog them and you'll see lots of hate. I'll never deal with them again.
