OVATION CC54i-PL IDEA WITH BUILT IN MP3 RECORDER

The Ovation iDea is the first and only guitar of its kind, featuring a built-in MP3 recorder/player. A digital recorder is part of the on-board Ovation preamp. A simple and direct recording control makes it easy to record entire songs or fragments, even vocals and commentary. The iDea is also a learning tool, with audio lessons pre-installed in the memory. Additional lessons from iDea educational partner, WorkshopLive.com, are available via download from www.OvationiDea.com.

Downloading files from a computer or the internet is easy via USB. Files in the iDea can be moved, renamed, deleted and rearranged right on the computer desktop. Mixes from recording software, rhythm tracks, even songs the player wants to learn can be downloaded and played either through the guitar output or headphones. Several “Jam Tracks” are also pre-installed in the instrument, and others are available online.

RECORD guitar and vocals simultaneously through pickup and built-in microphone. Store over 100 minutes of MP3 files.

PLAYBACK through headphones or amp. Change playback tempo without changing pitch.
