Description(English)	BANDHEAD is a recording device that is specifically designed to aid bands in their practice sessions. Its main function is to enable band members to instantaneously record their preferred sections during rehearsals(jamming) by operating independent recorders. After the practice session is completed, the recorded segments can be played back through the main unit (audio player) and discussed collaboratively. Furthermore, the device allows the band members to label each segment for ease of use in future endeavors such as music notation or mixing.
Description(Native)	｜設計特色｜錄製按下錄音鍵前十秒為一個段落，可多段錄音；提供兩種收音方式，讓不同樂器能以其適合的方式收音；段落能透過播放器基座來標記用以記譜或簡單混音。｜競品分析｜以樂團實際使用需求，進行研究。發現電子樂器、消費電子與攝影器材三個領域當中，優秀的錄音產品皆沒有「錄下『按錄音鍵前』內容」與「選用個別適合的輸入方式」這兩個在此使用情境中重要的功能。因此，最後定案將BANDHEAD的連線方式將電吉他與貝斯採用Line-in的方式連接音箱並運用5.4Ghz無線收發技術配合控制按鍵進行收音；而麥克風與爵士鼓則是採用on-board mic配合控制按鍵進行收音。｜產品運行驗證｜在編寫向前錄音的程式以使用終端機驗證的過程中，歷經使用Arduino發覺其接口擴充能力不足、而後使用Jetson Nano做為開發依據，將預想的功能透過Python撰寫，經過重複的調試以達到驗證的目的。｜配色、材質與表面處理｜依據音樂創作積木的使用情境，需要在練團室、家中與錄音室之間被攜帶移動，需要有耐磨、抗撞的特質。因此參考吉他配件中效果器、錄音器等產品的材料選用與加工處理。四支錄音機採用磨砂母模進行塑膠射出成形；介面層採用透明樹脂+噴砂與燻黑處理；白色中框採鋁合金壓鑄+噴砂處理；黑色上蓋與下盤採採用磨砂母模進行塑膠射出成形；揚聲器開孔面採鋁合金網+陽極處理。
