Recording is a breeze on the CD-2, and the results are purely pro. A high-quality stereo microphone is built in for top-grade, on the spot recording; additional mics can be plugged in as well. The CD-2 records directly onto CDs. So start playing and as soon as you’re done you’ll have a finished, professional CD! For extra long recording times like complete concerts or church services, the CD-2 offers recording to popular card (CompactFlash®) media, and supports up to 2 GB capacity for up to approximate over 6 hours of record time.

When recording to CompactFlash, your audio can even be edited ―with functions such as Audio Level Adjustment, Erase, and Trim for cutting out silence between songs for example. Once you have everything the way you want you can then burn your performance directly to CD.

Students will appreciate the CD-2’s usefulness as an educational/practice tool, thanks to its built-in stereo speakers, speed/pitch control, tuner, and metronome. You can easily record lessons or musical passages, and play them back at a slower tempo while retaining the original pitch. Or change the pitch of the audio and play along in different key signatures. The CD-2 provides some great learning advantages for all levels of students.

The CD-2 makes it easy to get audio in and out. For ultra convenience, a stereo microphone is built-in, so all you have to do is point and shoot. Or, if desired, you can plug in external mics with the two XLR inputs, complete with phantom power. A pair of RCA inputs and outputs are provided for convenient connection to electronic piano, CD player or stereos; using the 1/4-inch inputs you can even plug microphones or instruments like guitar directly into the CD-2. And if you like, you can use the built-in guitar effects or reverb to greatly enhance your guitar, piano, or vocals.

Enhance your recordings with the CD-2's lineup of professional audio effects, such as reverb, EQ, and compression. Make your recordings sound more ambient and lush, or punchy and crisp. Special tools are also provided for guitar and vocals, and the onboard Mastering effects help you put the final polish on your audio before you burn it CD. You won't believe how good your recordings can sound, and how friendly the CD-2's tools are to use.
