TrueBeat

The TrueBeat is a handheld MIDI device that enables musicians to practice in any rehearsal environment. Users of all ages and skill levels can play or sing along with professional MP3 accompaniment recordings, MIDI playbacks, rhythm tracks, or digitally customized metronomes. With its fully colored LCD screen, the TrueBeat enables performers to see live scores during playback. Enable TrueBeat’s practice & loop function to isolate challenging sections in order to focus on areas that need more improvement. Simply touch specific notes or chords on the monitor to see fingering charts for your select instrument. Import your own custom library of songs with the removable SD card or with a USB-cable attached to your computer with the complementary TrueBeat ViewerÒ software. Record from other digital devices using the MIDI-IN and MIDI-OUT jacks. TrueBeat’s metronome feature can be used with any recording or independently for any simple, complex, or compound time signatures with any accented downbeats or subdivisions. Customize tempos with different queues and paces ranging from 30 BPM to 470 BPM. The TrueBeat also enables users to calculate tempos and rhythms by physically tapping the TAP pad. Feel the tempo or rhythm with the vibration pad during playback. In addition, the built in microphone allows users to tune their instruments with single notes or specified chords. Its standard audio input and output allows user to amplify playback to any speaker or microphone accessory. With the fully integrated MIDI operating system, the TrueBeat is a portable way for musicians to master their music in any rehearsal environment. (TrueBeat is 4 in x 6 in x 0.6 in when closed.)
