Cakewalk V-Studio 20 West Warwick RI

It’s Musikmesse time and that means more great news from Cakewalk! This year we have two announcements: a new addition to the V-Studio product family, and a free new eBook on the SONAR V-Studio 700 by writer Scott R. Garrigus.

First, the V-Studio 20 is the third member of the V-Studio line of hardware/software products from Cakewalk and Roland. The VS-20 is a simple recording solution for guitarists or singer/songwriters who want an easy way to get start making music with incredible tones. Combining the simplicity of a portable hardware recording system with the power, flexibility, and control of modern computer-based recording, the VS-20 is ideal either at home or on the road, and lets users easily connect a guitar or mic to it and record to a computer with legendary BOSS tones.

The VS-20 features:

· A Stereo USB Audio Interface (Mac/Win)

· Onboard BOSS-powered COSM DSP effects for Guitar & Vocals (Mac/Win)

• The VS-20 Effects Editor (Mac/Win) and Guitar Tracks recording software (Win)
• A universal DAW control surface (Mac/Win, via Mackie control protocol)

The software-based V-Studio 20 Effects Editor is at the heart of the VS-20, providing genuine BOSS effects and COSM-modeled amplification for direct recording and performance with a computer….for the first time ever. It also provides guitarists unprecedented feel through latency-free performance. The included Guitar Tracks software provides guitarists and singer/songwriters a powerful tool for recording, editing, mixing, finalizing, and sharing music.

Cakewalk today is also announcing the availability of a new eBook by Scott R. Garrigus – author of the "SONAR Power!" book series – that will cover the ins and outs of the SONAR V-Studio 700 music production system.
