Easy to Learn and
Use
If you can operate a
CD player, you can
use the CD-GT1. Take
any standard compact
disc by your
favorite band and
put it in the CD
mechanism. Then plug
your guitar directly
into the CD-GT1's
1/4 in. input. Put
on some headphones,
set the volume, and
start rocking! If
you're a vocalist,
you can do the same,
substituting your
microphone for the
guitar.
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
guitar solos and
complex chord
changes. With the
CD-GT1, 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
lick 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 guitar.
Effect Yourself
The CD-GT1 has 43
great-sounding
built-in
customizable
modeling effects...
you don't need to
turn to external
boxes for
distortion, delay,
chorus and more.
Plus, there's a nice
selection of vocal
reverbs and
processed sounds so
you can sing along
with rockers,
hip-hoppers, divas
and everything in
between!
Performance Tools
You can set seamless
in-out loop points
with the CD-GT1...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-GT1 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-GT1 via
headphones, or use
its Line Output to
plug in speakers.
