Belkin IPod 4-Track?

January 07, 2007
It's Sunday, so it's tougher to check facts. We could be looking at a Photoshop prank here, or we could be looking at an important evolution in portable multitrack recording, from a name not exactly well-associated with multitrack audio. Via Gizomodo, we give you the Belkin TuneStudio, a mashup of an iPod with the Tascam 424 Portastudio of old:

The immediate questions:

  • Has Belkin, mainly noted for their wireless IP router products ever developed anything in an audio device before this?
  • What in the world is that orange cavity?
  • Does a 4-channel mixer for iPods mean more to a musician or to a podcaster?
  • Belkin?!?
Get more info about the Belkin TuneStudio at the original Gizmodo post.

Rob Warmowski is an Editor for Gearwire. Belkin?!??!

As an artist who records, I am looking forward to this machine. I wouldn't need to dwell on the orange cavity or if Belkin has ever done 4 track audio or any audio for that matter. Usually the 4 track sound is not a professional level sound anyway and as long as it is durable, has a sound quality that is in a good range with moderate depth, plus no clickking or trashy noise symptoms it will be successful I believe. It's a great idea because I have not found enough music to put on my 30gig ipod, it is plain too much work and as new ideas for my music will arise I can use this machine without reserve. http://johnpaul3.tv

Happy April Fool's Day!

Hello people, Happy April Fool's Day!

The man told his doctor that he wasn't able to do all the things around the house that he used to do. When the examination was complete, he said, "Now, Doc, I can take it. Tell me in plain English what is wrong with me."
"Well, in plain English," the doctor replied, "you're just lazy."
"Okay," said the man. "Now give me the medical term so I can tell my wife."

Happy April Fool's Day!
