Superscope PSD340 Dual Drive CD Recorder at a Glance:

• Real-time tempo and key change controls
  
• Easy to create, easy to program
  
• Built-in features for easy and effective recording and playback

Real-time tempo and key change controls
Significant improvements in Superscope's real-time tempo and key change controls for CDs and now MP3 files mean that a song can be slowed down even further with better quality - up to 75% - while retaining the musical pitch of the original. Or, the key of any song can shifted at the touch of a button up or down (as much as an octave) in half steps or finer increments, while the tempo remains unchanged. A CD or CD-MP3 can also be fine tuned to match an instrument. All of these changed may be recorded onto a new CD as a take-home customized accompaniment.

Easy to create and program
The CD player drive operates independently from the CD recording drive, so it's easy to program song play lists, record a few measures from the middle of a song, select start and end points for music practice loops, create your own music compilation CDs, convert MP3 files on a CD-ROM to song tracks on a standard audio CD, or continuously record an event such as a concert or church service while playing various CDs.

A versatile, powerful tool for recording and rehearsing
The PSD340 offers several features for easy recording and effective rehearsals. One-button recording functionality on the unit and remote gives you convenience and control, while additions such as Record-Review, reverb and delay effects, enhanced control over key and tempo, improved A-B looping, and a built-in metronome and tuner make the PSD340 a versatile and powerful tool.
