TASCAM MP3 player for musicians

The Tascam MP-GT1 MP3 player holds the honor of being the first MP3 player that was designed specifically for musicians.

It is, in essence, a mobile guitar trainer that comes with enough memory to hold up to 240 songs.

You can learn new riffs by slowing guitar parts down, looping, and even eliminate certain parts. Such MP3 playback is achieved via Variable Speed Audition, slowing down the speed without changing the pitch. You can also pitch up or down the current song to match your guitar's tuning.

The Tascam MP-GT1 uses a high-speed USB connection to load up MP3s and charge the built-in battery (an optional power supply is also available). Zip through your MP3 collection using a data wheel, dedicated buttons and a graphical LCD display.

A rechargeable 9-hour lithium ion battery is built into the unit, and an optional power supply is also available. Tascam MP-GT1 measures 105×78×25.5mm ,weighs 220g.
