MusicJam adds more hats to iPod

If you think that the iPod is nothing more than an overpriced MP3 player, think again. This iconic digital audio player can also be used to record tracks of your fledgling band with some third party accessories such as the MusicJam device. The MusicJam comes with an iPod dock that enables you to play music while recording via the XLR socket simultaneously, with the option to throw in some extra digital effects for more bang. Each $229 purchase includes an iPod connector cable, RCA cables, an AC adaptor, and a music stand clamp in addition to the promise of studio quality sound. Heck, when you’re taking a breather from your recording sessions, you can also load the included software that transforms your iPod into a karaoke machine, lyrics and all.
