Basically they have introduced a new digital piano, a general midi module, an USB/SD card reader for the old arrangers like the SD1 and, again, the Midjay Pro (already introduced the last year).
This is what they say about the Midjay Pro:

The KETRON MIDJPRO is a new state- of-the art professional Player, featuring modern multimedia performances with Midi, Wav, Mp3, Mp4, Jpg, Pics, Cdg, Karaoke and DVI, touch sensitive Screen, advanced USB and SD Card facilities.
The sound card is provided with 4 hi-quality Sound Banks including STEREO orchestral voices, STEREO Drum Kits with Live Drum Modelling, Multi Effects and a huge variety of Drum Grooves.
The MIDJPRO has also a new professional Style section with Audio Drums, Variations and full Preset Voices which enables the player to perform as a true, powerful Arranger unit.
Microphone and Guitar Inputs with Pro-effects, Vocalizer, Juke Box, DJ , HD Recording and Registrations enhances even more the instrument’s capabilities.
Combining all-in-one such huge potential together with an easy interface and compact sizes, the KETRON MIDJPRO redefines the standard for the contemporary live entertainment’s players and arranger modules.

I am particularly curious to see what "professional style section with audio drums" really means, since this could be the solution for those who want a backing module with the Audya styles but without having to pay an arm and a leg for an Audya 4.
Besides, technologically this Midjay Pro seems more up to date compared with the Audya.

Is this the same Vocalizer as in previous Midjays, or the better one from all the other recent keyboards?
Thanks,
DonM

Hi Don,

on the Midjay and Midjay Plus the vocalizer was optional; anyway this one has three voices, while the Audya has five voices, so I guess that is more like the old one.

Audya vocalizer:

Voicetron 5 Voices Harmonizer, Vocoder mode, Autoharmony,
MIDI Vocalizer track, Advanced editing


Midjay Pro vocalizer:

Voicetron : 3 Voice Vocalizer

Hey dreamer if you look at the specs between the midjaypro and the sd1000 they are the same. Same sounds,same number of drums, and same percussion grooves. If one has the software, and all one needs is the arranger section, I think the Sd1000 will do the job. For now with the proper software and an sd2 one sounds just like a sd5. Unless they are going to be using sounds out of the preset voices.

Hi Angel,

here is what Ketron say about the audio loops:

"Audio Loops and New Sounds.
In addition to the well-known timbres of the reference standard (GM), the SD1000 comprises other Sound Banks with lots of characteristic sounds of the conventional families (Pianos, Strings, Sax, and Brass etc).
The top feature of the SD1000 compared with other sound modules is definitely the presence of so many audio Loops (Drum Loops, which can be downloaded free of charge from www.ketron.it)".

So, you have to download them from the Ketron website, whereas the Midjay has them already inside, and we don't know if they are the same, or different ones.
Time will tell...

Tomorrow I see all news because i visit the MUSIKMESSE

Hey dreamer, you are right only time will tell. They were the same in the SD family, whether you had an sd5, sd2,midjayplus, the sounds for the arranger were the same. I was told,someone who was contracted by Ketron, the sd1000 will be the same as the Midjaypro in terms of sounds and percussion for the the arranger section. After I read your comments, I texted him for further detail to make sure. I am hoping they are the same,since all I want is the arrager section. The Sd2 had all the ingredients one needed the recipe (software).

Great for you victorptm, please let us know what you find.
