Click here 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.

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...

Angel, I saw the blog; maybe it's time that Ketron too start to assemble their products in China and Indonesia otherwise, with firms like Casio coming up with terrific instruments well below the 1000 euros mark, will be tough for them staying competivive in the market. Brand loyalty is a good thing, but in these dire times people are very attentive to the quality/price ratio.
