Tascam iXR - USB Audio MIDI Interface 

A music studio that fits in your bag

The iXR is a very portable audio MIDI interface that can be connected directly to an iPad with a lightning cable used ordinarily with an iOS device. The great thing about an iPad is how easy it is to take anywhere. The iXR provides possibilities for new music creation styles based in the concept of maintaining the portability of an iPad.

Tascam utilized a slim design without sharp edges or protuberances to maintain portability. In addition, by using rolled aluminum material, Tascam has realized a tough body that can withstand being banged around when carried. The jacks on the front are protected by guards, while the jacks on the back are recessed in the surface, so you can carry this unit without worrying about damaging the jacks and other parts.

The Ultra-HDDA mic preamps are also used in professional recorders and have been evaluated highly for their audio quality - With a signal-to-noise ratio of 101 dB and a mic amp EIN of at least −125 dBu. This makes it possible to record various instruments, including acoustic guitars and wind instruments, as well as vocals in high-resolution formats.

There are few controls and is extremely simple to use. With a focus on recording, functions have been selected carefully, so even beginners can get used to this device quickly.

By connecting an iXR, you can make a complete setup for music creation with outstanding portability and flexibility.

Take your iXR and iPad out for recording.

When the volume is a concern at home, head to a music studio. You can leave as soon as you put your iPad, iXR, mic and headphones in your bag. With its slim but tough body, carrying the iXR is no hassle. In the studio, connect the iPad AC adapter to the iXR, and use the Lightning cable to connect it to the iPad. Connect a condenser mic, turn a few knobs and you are ready. Then, all you need to do is play your heart out and record great performances. 

Arrange music on the iPad and create music without a computer.

An iPad can be used as a tool to view tabs. By installing a DAW app, it can also be used for creating music and practicing. You can easily add a DAW app by downloading a demo version of Steinberg Cubasis LE for free from the App Store. When you connect the iXR, the function restrictions for this app will be unlocked. You can work in bed, in your living room or anywhere you like and how you like. You can find your own music creation style without being restricted to "desktops".

Start using your iPad as a high-quality synthesizer.

Numerous software synthesizers are distributed through the App Store. Using the iXR, you can turn these apps into stage-ready synths. The sound quality of audio sources depends greatly on the digital-to-analog conversion quality and the post-conversion audio circuit quality. The iXR has a high-quality output circuit, so sound from apps is also output as high-quality audio. The audience will not believe that the sound enveloping them is from an iPad synthesizer app.

Conduct detailed editing using the large display of a desktop computer.

One of the advantages of a desktop computer is its large display. The iXR can also be connected to Windows and Mac computers. When you want to work on a large display, you can connect it to a desktop computer to enable smooth editing. This unit enables cutting-edge workflows that include recording ideas with an iPad and making final adjustments on a desktop computer.
