This product gives me the same slightly guilty feeling I get when I think back to the time my Granddad tried to give me some apples in a stocking for Christmas because that’s what he used to get. I had Castle Greyskull sitting next to me completely unwrapped which is why I didn’t act very enthusiastically towards apples. I’ve felt guilty ever since but I was only 4 years old.
Well anyway, Sam found this on e-bay and forwarded it to me because he knew I’m probably one of the few people on earth that would find it funny. Auction Link
It costs £199 and the description says
- Speed & Pitch of a hymn/worship song can be adjusted as much as you like. These are totally independent. For example, if you choose to speed a song up, the pitch will stay the same.
- Individual parts can be muted. Imagine a worship song with many instrumental parts (piano, guitar, percussion, bass, flute etc). If you want to play along ‘live?, you can mute as many of these individual parts as needed so you are not ‘competing’ with the recording.
- Repeat sections of a song or hymn instantly. If you want to add an extra verse, or maybe repeat a particularly rousing chorus, the MT90s will do it instantly. It has two ?Marker? buttons, which act exactly like bookmarks in a book. You can set them at desired points in a song and then return seamlessly to either of these points whenever you like.
It seems to be taking credit for the entire MIDI protocol itself. I’m sure someone will fall for it. It’s a bit like one of those Sunday supplement cons such as a “USB Turntable”.
You can picture the person who may buy this. Ned Flanders springs to mind (aww!).
Anyway, there you go. My review of a product I will never own and never know why I decided to write about it on my blog.
4 out of 5.
