StudioDock
PRO AUDIO DOCK FOR iPad
FLEXIBLE FUNCTIONALITY
StudioDock connects the iPad’s powerful processor, touch-screen interface and extensive
library of apps to their collection of microphones, instruments, professional speaker
and PA systems, MIDI controllers, sound modules, video projectors and much more.
With the StudioDock and an iPad you can record, perform, craft and create
music in virtually any situation or location. Built to accommodate all current appdevelopment standards including Core MIDI, the StudioDock is a universal device
that bridges your choice of music-creation apps, instruments, and devices.
COMPLETE CONNECTIVITY
The StudioDock provides two combination XLR and 1/4-inch inputs, each with its own
gain control and switchable phantom power for condenser microphones. Guitarists and
bassists will appreciate the StudioDock’s guitar-direct switch, enabling them to play,
perform and record right into amplier and effects-modeling apps. Bands can connect
outputs from their mixer and easily record their performances and rehearsals or use the
StudioDock as a metronome or loop-playback device. Producers can use the StudioDock’s
MIDI jacks to sequence external keyboards, samplers, drum machines and synthesizers,
or perform using the StudioDock as the sound module and their favorite MIDI-compliant
keyboard, drum pad or other controller. An assignable 1/4-inch footswitch input enables
remote control of any app-dened function such as stop/start or record. Users can
also connect the StudioDock to their Mac or PC using the USB port to send MIDI back
and forth for creative, new applications of the iPad and computer used in tandem.
You can connect the StudioDock’s stereo pair of 1/4-inch main outputs to studio
monitors for critical listening, or to PA systems for use in performance settings. You can
monitor on headphones, and independently control the levels of the two outputs, each
on its own knob. Recording musicians will appreciate the StudioDock’s direct-monitor
switch, which enables them to toggle between the incoming and playback signal on
their headphones. Rounding out the StudioDock’s output section is a composite video
connector, enabling users to employ the StudioDock as a source for video projection
behind bands on stage, or for connection to most televisions and computer monitors.
RUGGED RELIABILITY
Whether you’re keeping it in the safety of the studio or taking it out for recording
or performance use in the club or on tour, the StudioDock also serves as a
rugged, protective case for the iPad. The StudioDock completely houses the
iPad on the bottom and three side surfaces. It also encases the iPad’s screen
in a protective bezel on three of its four edges, further shielding the mobile
computing device from the potential for damage in punishing environments.
The applications of the iPad for music creation, production, and performance
are limited only by your creativity. As an imaginative, cutting-edge music maker,
the StudioDock empowers you to seamlessly connect the world of pro audio
gear and instruments to the iPad and its massive collection of apps.
