Tascam CD-BT2 bass trainer
Product no: TA-CDBT2 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The TASCAM Bass Trainer features unique Variable Speed Audition technology, which allows you to slow down or speed up a song without changing the pitch. That means it is an ideal training tool to help you master the solos, rhythms and other talents of your favourite bass players.

VSA technology enables teachers, students, amateurs and professionals to play back up-tempo music parts at a slower speed, so it's easier to study and practise them. The built-in multi-effect processor is equipped with a 7-band graphic equalizer that allows you to adjust the sound in great detail.

The CD-BT2 is a remarkably compact device with a simple user interface, a comprehensive effect bank, a chromatic tuner and a large graphical LCD display. This TASCAM bass trainer is the ideal partner for anyone who wants to master even the most complicated tracks!

Wrote the following about Tascam CD-BT2 bass trainer

Een heel handig apparaat. Het is makkelijk in het gebruik. De functies zijn snel en gemakkelijk te vinden.
Het geluid is prima.
Je kunt het tempo van een nummer vertragen om een nummer te oefenen.
Verder kun je je bas ermee stemmen, zit er een metronoom op. En kun je zelfs kiezen uit een aantal effecten. Kortom een heel veelzijdig apparaat.
Het vertragen van een nummer zonder de pitch te wijzigen is echt een uitkomst. Maakt het aanleren van lastige stukjes veel makkelijker !!!

To inspire you into action, we've put a little selection box together and filled it with gear and blogs that perfectly suit some home-based music making.
