Eidos Interactive Ltd. today announced that Traxxpad: Portable Studio has arrived on store shelves throughout North America. Traxxpad: Portable Studio allows musicians to harness the power of drum machines, samplers, sequencers and even a mini keyboard and transform them into a powerful pocket studio on the go.

“Traxxpad is not a game, but a way of life,” says Troy San Jose, studio director for Definitive Studios. “Music is a powerful form of self expression. Traxxpad and the PSP system will take it to the next level.”

Eidos’ newly signed collaboration with hip hop super producer Sha Money XL has opened the door for artistic creativity and generated huge hip-hop celebrity backing for Traxxpad: Portable Studio. From the studio to the PSP (PlayStation Portable) system to the hottest clubs, it’s going down with sick sound banks from D1, DJ Amplive, Insane Clown Posse, Sean T, and Traxxamillion.

Do more then just drop beats with big names. Traxxpad: Portable Studio gives gamers the ability to stylize the PSP system with dope in-game skins from Sha Money XL, 17 Hertz Studios, Beautiful Music Baby, Beretta Music, Cartier Entertainment, Clyde Carson, Commonwealth, Connoisseur 533, Crooks and Castles, D1 Beatz, DJ Amplive, DJ Replay, Fingerbangerz, Get Gone Records, Good Life, Psychopathic Records, Manik Skateboards, Orisue, Rick Lee the Dragon, Riottt, Simms Custom Cycles, Traxxamillion and Urb Magazine.

“Traxxpad: Portable Studio is an amazing music production innovation that is surrounded by great musical minds,” says senior marketing manager for Eidos North America, Kevin Gill. “That’s what makes Traxxpad so remarkable – it’s a powerful, portable music application that enables both gamers and professional musicians to express musical talent anywhere.”

The key to Traxxpad: Portable Studio’s intuitive design is the utilization of a range of high-end, music making components which focus on different characteristics of music construction. The result is a music application accessible enough for first time users to pick up and build an insane, yet in-depth beat, while giving industry pros access to never-before-available tools on a handheld. The end result is an intuitive, portable music studio sketch pad.

Developed by Definitive Studios, Traxxpad: Portable Studio is available in stores now exclusively on the PSP system. Check out www.traxxpad.com for more information about new downloadable content, social networking profiles of aspiring producers, rappers, lyricists and MCs and more.
