Creative Sound Blaster R3

Ever wanted a fuss-free, all-in-one home recording solution? Look no further! The Sound Blaster R3 is the perfect YouTube starter kit for budding musicians and anyone who wants to have high quality recordings at home. It comes with an advanced recording interface and two high quality microphones for vocals and guitar.

The Sound Blaster R3 expands your laptop audio connections to more than one input. Dedicated connections such as the dual microphone input or line-in allows you to sing and play with your favourite guitar tunes simultaneously, as well as plug in other sources of music such as your MP3 player. With the dedicated line-out connection, hook up some powered speakers and play out your latest tracks to your friends, in all its glory.

The Sound Blaster R3 also comes with both a high-quality XLR vocal microphone and a clip-on instrument condenser microphone. The vocal microphone fits into standard microphone stand clips and also features an on-off switch integrated into the microphone.

The instrument microphone has a clip designed to secure to acoustic guitars, but is also suited well for other acoustic instruments.

Effortless Reverb Adjustments

The dedicated hardware reverb control knob lets you adjust the level of reverb to dress up your voice for professional recording sessions.

600 Ohm Headphone Amp, Studio-Grade Monitoring

Tired of having to choose specific headphones impedance to match your setup? The R3 has a 600 Ohm amplifier, which means you can even use studio-grade headphones to monitor your recording.

Dual Microphone Inputs

The dual microphone input allows you to sing and play with your favorite guitar tunes simultaneously!

The R3 is a full recording kit which includes 2 microphones: a “vocal” mic that is also great for small group recordings and an instrument mic designed with a clip that's ideal for attaching to a guitar. Alexa, an alto sax player in high school, discovered the instrument mic is perfect for attaching to a standard Wenger music stand as well.

The R3 kit also includes an XLR to 1/8th inch adapter which is used with the supplied vocal mic, and can also be used with other XLR microphones if someone already has a preferred mic and want to use that with the R3 base unit. This gives R3 the adaptability to be used in many recording situations where specific mic types are crucial, like outdoor ensemble recordings versus indoor solo performances.

Don't let the ease of use fool you, the Sound Blaster R3 also includes a full software suite that allows for some serious audio customization such as pitch correction and set different EQ and adjust mic recording levels. The system is designed so that any musician can jump right in, record within minutes, and then have the ability to get into even greater detail if they desire.

Combine the R3 with a laptop or even an iPad using the dedicated mobile-in connection and you've got a powerful personal recording studio that utilizes all the advances of the mobile smart devices of today. There's quite simply no other recording system out there that combines the versatility, convenience, and powerful feature set that the Sound Blaster R3 offers to those looking to record their small ensembles or solo performances.
