Boss BR-1200CD Studio is now shipping. The BR-1200CD features a lineup of built-in COSM amp models, including the Roland JC-120 Jazz Chorus™, plus models of popular BOSS compact pedals such as the OD-1 and MT-2. Also onboard are COSM mic models, which emulate expensive condenser mics. Pitch can be corrected and harmornies can be added with the Vocal Tool Box. For the finishing touch, the Mastering Tool Kit can put a pro-quality polish on the mix.

The BR-1200CD features an onboard bass and drum programmer. Realistic acoustic drum and percussion instruments are included, as well as electronic sounds for composing modern music. A variety of bass sounds are also supplied, such as slapped, picked, and fretless. Jam along with the supplied patterns or create tracks from scratch. There's also a selection of loop phrases pre-installed on the internal hard drive.

The BR-1200CD has a USB port for simple, one-cable data exchange with a computer. Audio tracks can be imported/exported in .WAV format, and songs can be safely backed up externally. The BR-1200CD is compatible with both PC and Mac, including Mac OS X.
