5. DIjet Pro USB system We value your feedback for product improvement However we also love hearing your stories of how you re using your MIDIjets Let s just say that hearing the stories makes what we do seem even more worth it and gives us ideas for how to make even better products 1 2 Applications MIDJjet is designed to replace standard MIDI cables in situations where cables restrict performer mobility are visually unpleasant or awkward to connect In live performance environments MIDIjet Pro allows you to get off stage and interact with your fans Sure it gets rid of cables and all that but it s really about you and your fans having more fun during the show It s also about making life easier for your techs and roadies during setup and teardown Lighting applications and syncing DAWs with other software is a great new area where MIDIjet is used now The built in USB interfaces makes it easy to connect computer to computer If these applications need MIDI traffic in both directions all you need is to use the USB connection or to use a bi directional MIDI cable in the MIDI Jack Drum triggers in live shows are another area great way to use MIDIjet Pro MIDI enabled front of house consoles use MIDIjet Pro to connect to gear on stage or to mix remotely Recording and TV studios use MIDIjet Pro to get MIDI from room to room or between floors without running cables Run your patch switching cross stage without having cables to trip ove
