Sunday, March 16th, 2008The Belkin F8Z109 TuneStudio Portable Digital Multitrack Recorder lets you record directly onto an iPod.
A High-Quality Four-Channel Audio Mixer
The first of its kind, the Belkin TuneStudio
is a four-channel audio mixer allowing for digital recordings made directly onto an iPod at 16-bit, 44kHz quality in uncompressed WAV format for crystal clear audio. Recorded items can be played back instantly. Audio is streamed though the built-in USB interface to and from a PC or Mac. TuneStudio also works as an external sound card, allowing input and output of audio to a PC from its connectors.
Each channel has a 3-band EQ as well as pan and level controls. High-quality Phantom-power-enabled XLR inputs provide up to 60db of microphone gain; a high-quality stereo compressor with makeup gain enhances audio dynamics and keeps audio levels within the recording limits of the iPod. Compression is controlled by a single knob. The TuneStudio features LEDs to indicate master audio level, power status, peak indications, and compressor.
Record Jam Sessions While on Tour or Create Podcasts on Location.
The Belkin TuneStudio is compact and rugged, making it ideal for bands on tour, as it can withstand life on the road. Jam sessions can be recorded easily by simply attaching instruments and microphones to the TuneStudio. Podcasters can use the TuneStudio to record their shows either in studio or on location.

* iPod classic (6th generation–80 GB and 160 GB);
* iPod nano (3rd generation–4 GB and 8 GB; 2nd generation–2 GB, 4 GB, and 8 GB); and
