Applications

MIDIjet 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 over.

We are always interested in what else you decide to do with it. So let us know what you come up with.
