Cakewalk SONAR V-Studio 100 Portable Music Studio With or without a computer, this unit helps you create, record, produce, and perform music. With your computer as an audio interface and DAW computer, or away from your computer as an SD recorder and digital mixer, the SONAR V-Studio 100 is a versatile, portable music production solution.  Hooked up to a PC or Mac, the V-Studio 100 lets you control your favorite software, such as SONAR, Logic, Live, Cubase, etc., and provides you with a high-quality audio and MIDI interface. It features 8-In + mix/6 Out 24-bit/96KHz quality I/O with 2 mic preamps (with phantom power), a HI-Z guitar input and MIDI I/O. Through Mackie Control it works as a universal DAW controller, with a 100mm motorized, touch-sensitive fader, 5 rotary encoders, 11 buttons, and transport control. When you're on the road or in the studio, you can record directly into the SD card without the need to boot up a computer. Take it to live gigs and use its digital mixer, reverb (4 types), compression, and EQ for mixing vocals, and other instruments. It gives you a built-in metronome and makes it easy to transfer your recorded audio to and from any computer via USB connection. To help shape and add other elements to your compositions that you may not have sitting around, the SONAR V-Studio 100 comes with the VS Production Pack, a phenomenal suite of 4 effects and 6 instruments for Mac and Windows.
