| A funny thing happened when we debuted the CD-VT1 Vocal Trainer. More than just
vocalists bought it. Woodwind, brass and string players discovered that its
Vocal Cancellation feature worked equally well on instrumental recordings. They
discovered that being able to slow down a difficult passage without changing the
pitch was a perfect practice tool.
Among other extra new features, the mkII version includes an enhanced Vocal
Canceller that lets you select the cancellation point in the Left-Right stereo
pan and also lets you select just midrange or full cancellation. It also adds
more Variable Speed options, built-in metronome, split monitoring and a host of
other cool new features.
Easy to Learn and Use
If you can operate a CD player, you can use the CD-VT1mkII. Take any standard
compact disc by your favorite band and put it in the CD mechanism. Then plug a
microphone (or two) directly into the CD-VT1mkII's 1/4" inputs. Put on some
headphones, set the volume, and start rocking!
Slow
Down and Learn with Slow Speed Audition feature.
In ancient times (like the 1970s), musicians would take a vinyl LP record and
manually spin the record on a turntable, slowing it down to be able to better
hear and understand the performances, like fast rap passages and complex chord
changes. With the CD-VT1mkII, you get a training method that's even better. Not
only can you slow down the speed of the CD by up to 50%, but you can do it
without changing the pitch of the original material! After you learn the song at
a slow speed, you can increase the tempo in steps until you can match the
original performance note for note. Also, you can change the pitch of the CD
without changing the speed...use this feature to "tune the CD" to your
instrument or vocal range.
Effect Yourself
The CD-VT1mkII has 18 great-sounding built-in customizable effects...you don't
need to turn to external boxes for reverb, echo and more. The Voice Changer
effect pitches the input up or down one octave, and the Vocal Canceller
eliminates the original vocal so you can sing along.
Performance Tools
You can set seamless in-out loop points with the CD-VT1mkII...it will play the
same section of music over and over again so you can focus on your playing. Use
the footswitch input to start and stop the CD, or to scroll through effects. The
CD-VT1mkII even provides a chromatic tuner so you always sound great when you
play, and can run on batteries to take your show on the road. You can listen to
the CD-VT1mkII via headphones, or use its Line Output to plug in speakers.
There's never been a better or more affordable instrument/voice training tool
than the CD-VT1mkII. Get one at your TASCAM retailer and start improving your
