The new CD-RW900 replaces the best-selling CD-RW750 and adds features like: MP3 playback, pitch and key control and a PS/2 computer keyboard input for naming takes and adding CD-Text. This two-rackspace unit has CD Text and MP3 ID3 tag display, unbalanced RCA inputs and outputs with dedicated input level controls, and ±16% pitch control in 0.1% steps for CD music discs only. The Key Original function changes the playback speed without changing pitch--a great songwriting/production tool indeed.

Like using a computer, you can navigate and organize music files into folders and burn them that way on a CD-R. Other very useful additions are: un-finalize for CD-RW discs; auto track increment by level with trim function; 44.1kHz (defeatable) sample rate converter; all, single, program, random play and repeat play modes; power-on play; coax and optical S/PDIF digital inputs and outputs with input level control; and a included wireless remote control.

The CD-RW900 CD Recorder sells for $679 MSRP and for much more information contact TASCAM at 7733 Telegraph Road, Montebello, CA 90640 USA. 323-726-0303 or www.tascam.com.
