The Gibson Memory Cable records in 44.1 kHz, 16 bit wave files, so its application isn’t restricted to guitars – anything that uses an unbalanced TS cable can be recorded. With the supplied 4GB MicroSD card you’ll get around 13 hours of recording and it has an automatic mode that kicks the recorder into life only when you’re playing.
