■The GB-10 is a trainer/recorder for guitarists and bassists. It incorporates all of TASCAM's accumulated recorder and trainer technology, creating a new concept trainer/recorder that emphasizes ease of use and user interface. Connect it to your guitar or bass and practice while monitoring with headphones, or use the built-in effects to enjoy immersive sound while performing. You can also copy the song file you want to practice from your computer and play it back while playing along. For training purposes, the VSA (Variable Speed ??Audition) function allows you to freely change the playback speed of the file without changing the key. By halving the speed (0.5x), you can easily memorize fast phrases by ear. You can also practice up-tempo songs by playing faster than normal speed (1.0x). You can also record your performance with a connected guitar or bass. Listening to your own performance over and over and practicing repeatedly is a shortcut to improving your technique. The overdubbing function also allows you to mix and record your performance while playing a file. Not only can you record your guitar or bass playing along with your favorite songs, but you can also easily record ideas that come to mind on the spot and use them for demo production. Using the optional RC-3F footswitch allows you to control various functions, such as recording, playback, and flashback, hands-free, making training and recording even more effective.
