IK MULTIMEDIA iRiG ACOUSTIC Acoustic guitar microphone/interface for iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, Android and Mac

Acoustic players — Now thereʼs finally an affordable, mobile Acoustic playing and recording system with professional sound made just for you!

Inspired by a must see documentary on flamenco guitar master Paco de Lucia, iRig Acoustic is the first acoustic guitar mobile microphone/interface for acoustic players. With iRig Acoustic and theAmpliTube Acoustic app, players now have a complete professional sounding mobile system for playing live and recording designed specifically for acoustic guitars on the go.

iRig Acoustic is another IK Multimedia industry first — itʼs an innovative, patent-pending, acoustic guitar microphone pickup that installs in seconds that you use to perform live and record with on an iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android. iRig Acoustic provides professional high-quality sound, simple installation and freedom to play and record everywhere.

And with the AmpliTube Acoustic companion app, youʼll have in the palm of hand the worldʼs first and most powerful acoustic tone sculping and refinement studio for playing anywhere, any time.

The body of iRig Acoustic is made of soft non-marring rubber material so it prevents scratches and marks when being installed or removed from an instrument. It can be installed on any stringed instruments with a circular sound-hole — steel-string acoustics, nylon-string classicals, ukuleles and more.

Features:

• Ultra-compact clip-on microphone for acoustic guitar

The Tascam iXJ2 allows an Apple iPhone 4/4S, iPad or iPod Touch 4G to be used with preferred microphones or

line level sources (instruments) to create CD-quality audio recordings. This handy extension is simply plugged

into the dock connector of the iOS device and is connected with up to two mono or stereo sources that can be

selected via a switch. Switchable plug-in power for small microphones and mono summing for news gathering are

also available.

The built-in A/D converter ensures high audio quality and low noise. Separate input level controls and

two-colour level indicators for the left and right channels make level adjustments easy, and a switchable

limiter can reduce sudden peaks and thus protect against unforeseen overload.

The iXJ2 is powered through the dock connector, so no battery is required. A USB input is provided to charge

the iOS device for long recordings, either through a computer or a USB charger.

An appropriate 2-track recording application (Tascam PCM Recorder) for iOS devices can be downloaded from

AppStore at no charge.

With one simple plug-and-play FireWire connection, the V4HD turns your Mac or PC desktop or laptop computer into a powerful HD/SD video production workstation equipped with all the video and audio I/O you need.

Connect all your gear, from SD camcorders and monitors to today's latest professional HD cameras, video decks, LCD reference monitors and plasmas – all at the same time, with no cable swapping. Choose your input source, then log and capture HD or SD clips directly into Final Cut Pro or Premiere Pro.

In Final Cut Pro, the V4HD supports full-raster 1920x1080 HD capture and playback using Apple's ProRes 422 codec in both standard and HQ modes. The V4HD is the ideal all-in-one video capture solution for any ProRes workflow.

In both Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro, the V4HD provides hardware-accelerated capture and playback of DVCProHD, DVCPro50 and DVCPro25 video streams, plus 8- and 10-bit uncompressed SD — all with convenient plug-and-play FireWire connectivity and CPU-efficient intra-frame editing.

The V4HD is ideal for a DVCProHD/P2 workflow because you can immediately play back P2 clips (either imported or ingested) with no transcoding necessary. Conversely, you can connect any SD or HD video source such as an HDV camera, legacy video deck or DVD player and then capture it directly as a DVCProHD clip in Final Cut or Premiere. Many cameras now feed their uncompressed SDI or component output directly from the camera's optics and imager, before compression, for the best-possible picture quality during capture with the V4HD. Need to bring SD material into your HD project? The V4HD even provides hardware-accelerated SD-to-HD up conversion for capturing SD sources in DVCProHD format.

As you edit, monitor your timeline on multiple HD and SD displays simultaneously with the V4HD's hardware-accelerated up-conversion, down-conversion and pull-down insertion or removal. Watch a variety of display formats side by side, from the pixel-for-pixel accuracy of a large plasma screen, to the color-corrected balance of an LCD reference monitor, to the real-world look of a consumer display. Use 32 channels of audio I/O to capture, monitor, mix and master multichannel surround sound for your productions at sample rates up to 192 kHz. Employ Sony 9-pin machine control for advanced Batch Capture and Edit to Tape operations. Keep everything frame-accurate using time code, video reference and audio word clock.

The V4HD delivers all this with one simple FireWire 400 or 800 connection — even to a laptop computer. With the V4HD handling video I/O via FireWire, your laptop's expansion slot can be used for high-performance video storage solutions.

From start to finish, the V4HD streamlines your video production workflow, with unified control over all your video gear from your computer desktop.
