Pandora: Basic Questions

I just learned of this product today. After some googling, all I could find was the ToneWorks Pandora PX4D Personal Multi-Effect Processor. Is this the practice tool?

I use mine to practice in headphones, that way I can tune out all the other noise around me. It's not terrible and it's not great, but it serves my purpose.

It has some ok amp models and effects, but I don't mess with them. It has a metronome and some drum beats which are ok. It can pull the low freqs out of songs if you want to play along. It can slow and speed stuff up.

The quality is really nothing amazing, but it does have it's uses.
I would consider it a practice tool and mini personal headphone amp.

Ditto that.

It also has the ability to record a loop about 30 seconds long. And.... it can transpose up and down by several half steps without changing key. And... it can change key without changing tempo. (although the sound quality on these last two FX can be a little odd)

Great practice tool. Don't forget to buy lots of batteries!!!

Thanks guys. From what I've learned including your posts, I'm going to give the Tascam MP-BT1 a try. Just ordered one and should arrive in a couple days. Since I mainly need a practice tool, seems like the BT1 would meet my needs precisely without any bells and whistles. Maybe the Pandora will be something further down the road.
