Focusrite's newest product is available now at many retailers, including Guitar Center, Best Buy, Sam Ash and Sweetwater. For a complete list of retailers, or to find the closest retailer, please follow this link: http://www.focusrite.com/us/stores/store_locator
The culmination of Focusrite's 27-year heritage as a leading manufacturer of pro-audio technology, iTrack Solo adds studio-quality guitar and microphone inputs to the Apple iPad; the same inputs found in recording studios around the world. It's compatible out of the box with a range of music-making apps, from GarageBand to Auria - just plug in and play. Packed neatly into a sleek metal chassis that fits in the palm of the hand, it's the perfect companion for any singer/songwriter wanting to take their demos to the next level, when the inspiration is there but the studio is not.
Now available for $199.95 MSRP ($159.99 Street), the iTrack Solo is an affordable and high-performance recording solution and the ideal holiday gift for aspiring musicians.
Key Features
-- Made For iPad. Compatible with Mac OS X and Windows: iTrack Solo is an
official 'Made For iPad' accessory and works with many iOS apps
including GarageBand. Plug in your guitar, bass, keyboard or microphone
and hit record. It couldn't be simpler.
-- Uncompromising audio clarity: Record audio at higher than CD quality
(24-bit, 96kHz). Phantom Power enables the use of top-quality studio
microphones.
-- High-end components: iTrack Solo features an award-winning Focusrite
microphone preamplifier, the choice of leading artists and recording
engineers around the world.
-- Intelligent controls: Getting the right volume is important - two "halo"
lights surround the input level knobs, turning red if record volume is
too high.
-- Connect directly to a loudspeaker system: Rear panel speaker outputs
allow for playback over an audio system.
-- Roadworthy protection: Its rugged aluminum uni-body case means iTrack
Solo is suitable for even the most adventurous musicians.
Giles Orford, Marketing Director of Focusrite, said: "Artists such as the Arctic Monkeys, Lily Allen and Justin Bieber all hit the road to success by sharing their music online, but they didn't get there by strumming or wailing into a webcam. With iTrack Solo, we wanted to give consumers a really simple way to get themselves heard without compromising on sound quality. As our product works with many iPad apps, it now couldn't be easier to record, mix and share your music."
