BOSS has started shipping the latest Micro BR Digital Recorder, which is the ultimate palmtop guitar companion and recording studio.

Just a little bigger than an iPod, the BOSS Micro BR Digital Recorder offers the ability to load and play back MP3 files, time-stretch MP3s in real time without affecting pitch, has an onboard guitar multi-effects processor, built-in rhythm patterns, and offers 32 recording tracks (V-tracks) with four simultaneous playback tracks.

Measuring approximately 5″x3″x1″, the BOSS Micro BR is small enough to put in your pocket. But the tiny-yet-powerful Micro BR packs a wide range of features into its tiny case. At its core, the Micro BR is a 4-track studio with four simultaneous playback tracks and two simultaneous record/input tracks. Each of the four main playback tracks also has eight companion V-Tracks (for a total of 32) which allows musicians to record take after take then choose the best material for mixdown.

The Micro BR Digital Recorder also features almost 300 drum patterns for play-along inspiration or even as song foundations and a quality guitar multi-effects processor including time-stretch functionality for changing the tempo of your tracks without changing the pitch.

The BOSS Micro BR has USB compatibility which enables loading or uploading of MP3 files for play-along, rehearsing, jamming, or data exchange with a computer.

The recording media of choice is the internationally recognized Secure Digital (SD) Card which can be easily found in electronics stores across the country.

The BOSS Micro BR Digital Recorder can be found online for around $230.
