well yeah didn't dip into don't do alright there we go the box can now open and pop this little top here and I'll go ahead I'm just probably get pull this back so not gonna get the whole thing in the camera range here next it's gonna use if I shake the box there we go it's starting to come out Oh sounds like someone's passing gas but it's not it's just the box now that now this towards Cameron look at government dock alright so I hit the microphone it's gonna be a big old boom right there so anyway that's my crazy antics let's go ahead and pop the cap here and we're off the bat dog alright we get the Quick Start Guide iRig Keys Universal keyboard controller for iPhone iPad a you guys already know that right Quick Start Guide just going to tell you a bunch of stuff how to use it and a bunch of different languages ones that I don't speak alright we're going to bang that off to the side this is the register your I K accessory today you want to make sure that you do that that way you can go ahead and download all the stuff we talked about before like I said they have a thing right here it says get all your sample products and all that stuff on the other side of this is my registration card and registration card which you can't see so haha alright so they were moving that out of the way what we got down here a revolution mobile music revolution which is what these guys are trying to do they're trying to everything to be portable rock and roll on your phone you guys ought it is the mobile world's taking over so microUSB to USB see those over the place iPhone so you can put in your iPhone now we'll go ahead and take the product out and as I've actually read about this I won't be able to give you guys a demo like I wanted to you actually have to use one of those programs so I'm going to have to like install one in this computer to do that I thought it'd be simpler but it's not so let me bang this out of the way now to the Cameron to get some very very close ups here and I mean hold this up we'll start off actually we might as well start off in the back so let's just start off in the back right here you see connectivity this is for a pedal right here is the iOS connection plug the iOS connection in into your phone record directly from this into your phone easy stuff so that's the connectivity in the back now let's flip it around I'll show you guys the front pitch modulation you guys all those are good volume right here ten tenten tenten you can do your different settings here up and down your octaves here your programs are here you can see that it's very very very small but really cool for using just simple things not very expensive either being 99 bucks like I said so you can sit here and use this thing and it actually feels pretty good underneath my fingers it's not bad at all it's kind of funny because they have some of the keys here you know you can see right here it says all notes off transparent reset enter yes and actually each one of these all the way down you know has something else to do it here you see you know channel no mini channel velocity knobs progression so you have all kinds of knobs all kinds of control with this 99 bucks so you guys the back much to it is the bottom though it's got a little feet to hold on to the stand and that's pretty much it all right there we go rockers and rollers you guys can see this thing's made for ultra portability it's very very lightweight it's kind of long but you can stick it inside of a duffel bag no problem at all the cool thing about this is since it goes directly to your phone it can be powered that way you can plug this thing directly into your phone and then just start rockin I mean you could be at the beach with your friends at a beach party and just go oh hey I got a grant here for a song and start banging it out you know I mean or I think there's trickier ways you could use it as well you could probably hook it up and use one of those USB speaker type things through your phone so you play it through your phone USB wireless speaker and you're playing live at the beach through your phone on the keyboard not I apologize I couldn't give you guys a demo but we found out Rock the beds are unboxing there's nothing in the box at all the paper work I have to go online register the product download the software do all that stuff and then I can get it up and going so that'll be another video anyways let me know what you guys think about this do you think it's a pretty cool product do you think it's total garbage I mean do you think it's actually something interesting I feel that it's something very interesting for the fact that the portability for those people who just want to have something and take wherever they go in this new age where everybody says oh I want to go it's great but you know from some of those programs you know like Pro Tools logic all that kind of stuff that's going to be more with your laptop that's not going to be really too much with your phone you're going to be using that more your laptop or your computer depending on how it goes so anyways 99 bucks makes you guys check out the link the description below if
