DISC Boss BR-1600 CD V2 Digital Recorder

Full Description

Already powerful with its eight XLR inputs for simultaneous recording, pro-grade effects, and backing tracks, the BR-1600CD with Version 2 upgrade (free for all previous BR-1600 units) improves and adds to the existing effects, including COSM® bass amp models from the GT-6B, enhanced vocal tools, MIDI sync capability, and more. Also new to Version 2 - the BR-1600CD can read BR-1200CD/1180CD song data, no conversion process necessary.

New Bass Effects

Two types of bass-amp models were provided in the original BR-1600CD. Now, in Version 2, six COSM® models have been added, bringing the total to eight. Also new to Version 2 are COSM-powered overdrive/distortion effects derived from the GT-6B, plus 2x2 Chorus, Humanizer, Vibrato, Slow Gear, and Ring Modulator effects. In Version 2, the order/routing of FX blocks can be freely modified.

Enhanced Vocal Tool Box

Fix pitch and add harmony tracks - these essential tools have been part of the BR-1600CD's feature set since its release. With Version 2, the Vocal Tool Box gets even better with enhanced realtime vocal-pitch correction that allows you to designate specific editing regions (by contrast, Version 1's pitch correction was a real time process in units of semitones). The Harmony Sequence feature has been improved as well, allowing you to have more control over the editing parameters.

MIDI Sync

New to the BR-1600CD is its ability to synchronize playback or recording with another BR-1600CD, recorder, or MIDI sequencer via incoming MIDI Time Code (MTC). If you have a friend who owns a BR-1600CD, for example, the two units can be combined to create a 32-track recording studio with 16 simultaneous input channels!

Version 2 software also includes the following updated features:

COSM Models added (derived from BOSS s GT-6B)

Enhanced Vocal Tool Box for better vocals and backings

MIDI Slave capable for control from external MIDI devices

BR-1180CD/1200CD data compatible
