iXZ - Mic and Guitar Audio Interface for iOS iPad iPhone or iPod
The iXZ is the best portable interface for recording microphones and guitars/basses with Apple iOS devices. It can connect nearly any acoustic/electric instrument or mic to the device to utilise any of the thousands of recording apps available for iOS. With the combo jack input for mics or guitars, and which also supplies phantom power for use with condenser micropones, audio output can be provided to headphones or powered speakers. Fantastic high quality device recording in an easy portable size.
Mic or Guitar-level Input
Unlike similar recording interfaces for iOS, the input of the TASCAM iXZ can be switched between microphone-level or guitar level in. When switched to guitar level, the iXZ doesn't require any power. That makes the iXZ ideal for practicing your guitar and bass as well as recording. Switch to Microphone level to enable the microphone preamp. Phantom power is available for powering a condenser microphone for detailed instrument or voice recording. A pair of AA batteries (included) provide hours of microphone recording. A hardware gain knob controls the level of the input to your recording app. This gives you a quicker way to adjust the level than software controls – if your app even has one.
Headphone Out/thru Jack
Since the iXZ simply plugs into the headset jack of your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, an 1/8" headphone output jack is provided on the back of the iXZ.
