The MIDJPRO instrument has a double professional Player that can efficiently playback MIDI files, Audio files (MP3, WAV, CDG) and Video files (MP4, FLV, AVI). The device includes a CROSS FADE function, to automatically fade-out between one song and another, a LEAD MUTE function to exclude the lead and a SEARCH function to run an alphabetical or numerical search on the disk.

Advanced management for LYRICS, TEXTS and KARAOKE, with the possibility to select colours and backgrounds for texts, to send the words of the songs or video clips to an external Monitor (DVI), keeping control of the directories on the Touch screen. If you have a video projector, you can connect it to the DVI socket.

You can navigate the files directly with Alpha dial and scroll on the Touch screen. You can create customised PLAYLISTS and view your favourite folders immediately among those of the directory (MY FOLDER). To make the navigation function even easier, there is a JUKE BOX environment, where you can activate the songs instantly, simply by touching the display. There is also a DJ menu with double Player and special effects that can be applied on the Audio, such as Tap tempo, Pitch, Cut Off, Resonance, Tempo, Brake and Back Spin. In SYNC mode, you can synchronise the Bpm of Midi and Audio Wav or MP3 files (after these have been pre-arranged appropriately), so that you can link the beginning of the next song in perfect synchronism with the current one.


SOUND BOARD

The sound generation of MIDJPRO offers 512 GM Orchestral SOUNDS split up into 4 Sound Banks, with Grand Piano Stereo, Brass and Sax sections with the consolidated KETRON Solos sounds, new Multilayer Guitar and Bass sounds, as well as the new Pad, Strings, Synth, Electric Piano and Accordion sounds processed in STEREO and MULTIVOICE mode.

The instrument also has a VOICE menu with 368 Sounds, split up into 12 families, already pre-arranged to play the lead and easily controllable from the master keyboard. For these Voices, there is a sophisticated EDIT function, with the possibility to overlap up to 3 sounds in layer, in addition to the 2nd Voice, Velocity switch, Duet, Trio, Steel, Harmony functions. All this can be saved on USER VOICE.

New DSP effects section and EFX Insert chains, which can be programmed with High Quality Distortion, Chorus, Reverb, Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo, 4 Band Parametric EQ, Compressor, Delay and Rotary. There are 47 new Acoustic Stereo and Electronic DRUM SETS, with a special device called LIVE DRUM MODELLING, which controls some percussion instruments randomly and with different samples, such as Snare, Rim shot, Claps, Snap to create a better live feel of a real drum player.

Among the main features that distinguish the sound generation of the MIDJPRO from other modules, is also a powerful library of over 267 AUDIO DRUM LOOPS, which allow you to enrich, if not even replace, the rhythmic parts of your sequences, to create a substantial difference to the sound of normal Midi files.


ARRANGER

The MIDJPRO instrument has an innovative and professional Arranger section with 143 Styles that cover the most demanded musical genres of modern live entertainment. Following KETRONs philosophy, already implemented in the Audya series, the MIDJPRO instrument integrates real AUDIO recordings in the rhythmic part of its Arrangements of Drum and Percussions, perfectly synchronised with the Midi Clock, with an excellent tolerance range, even with high Tempo variations (up to 30 % -/+ on the nominal Bpm). In addition to the Audio rhythms, the Styles also use the rich library of Latin, Dance and Traditional Drum Grooves already available on the sound board. You can select the Grooves freely and save them within the style. The accompaniment is made up of a BASS, 5 CHORDS with amazing variety of rhythmic-harmonic patterns, 2 manual chords (LOWER) and 3 orchestral VARIATIONS, which can be easily activated or disabled while playing so that the performance of the Style is less static and repetitive. The Arranger of the MIDJPRO is remarkably flexible and includes an efficient EDIT function of all the parameters of the Style. You can edit the original values of the accompaniment sections (Sounds, Volumes, Effects, Variations, etc.), assign 4 Voices to the lead section and combine them with the 4 ABCD segments of the Arrangement. You can save the Style thus edited as a USER STYLE and create a customised library of Styles without deleting or editing the original ones of the manufacturer.

There is a PIANIST function to control the Arranger of the MIDJPRO playing with a pianists technique, and a sophisticated BASSIST mode, which more demanding pianists can use to play the manual left Bass and control the Arranger on the right-hand side of the keyboard at the same time, exploiting a complex algorithm of chord recognition.


MICRO / GUITAR

The MIDJPRO has 2 Microphone inputs. The first one (MICRO 1) is for the main microphone with Reverb, Echo, Equalizer, Noise Gate, Compressor and Pitch Shift effects. Micro 1 also controls the VOICETRON, the Vocalizer section of the MIDJPRO with 3 voices and possibility of Midi Mode, Harmony Right and Left and Unison.The MICRO 2 input on the other hand, thanks to a special selector switch on the rear panel of the instrument, can be used as both a secondary microphone and GUITAR input.Once connected to the Micro 2 input, the Guitar can be processed with all the DSP Effects within the MIDJPRO instrument, so that
singing guitarists have a complete and compact set-up for their live performance. The effects can be totally programmed and controlled via the Footswitch (FS 13- FS 6).

Those who have a guitar with Midi converter also have the additional possibility to easily control the Arranger, setting the chords of the automatic accompaniment directly on their guitar.


ACCORDION

The MIDJPRO offers facilitated pre-arrangements for the Midi connec-tion of the Accordion and the classic footswitch for all the functions of the instrument. In addition new specifically designed menus have been developed for the Midi Accordion. Thanks to the CLASSIC ACCORDION mode, designed for a totally manual use, Accordionists can program some complete concert orchestrations with 2 Voices on the Bass part, 3 Voices on the Chords and Preset Voices for the lead, plus a rhythmic section, if requested, which can all be saved as a Registration. In STYLE ACCORDION mode, with the Arranger controlled by the left hand, there is a new and refined BASS TO CHORD function which, by pressing a certain chord combined with a specific Bass, can be used to play chords and pitches that are not usually envisaged with the normal Accordion technique. This does indeed offer Accordionists a whole new world of musical potentials, especially in the pop music and jazz environment.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
