Description:
The MadPlayer, the world's first all-in-one digital music maker, beat machine, music composer, and handheld studio, is by default the best in its class. It's also a lot of fun, offering the power to create and interact with your own beats, music, and songs. The MadPlayer generates unique, unlimited, copyright-free music of remarkably high sound quality that you can play with, change, listen to, and share with others. Using a sound bank of over 600 instruments and sounds, MadPlayer's unique, proprietary software (called Generative Music Algorithms, or GMA) helps you create limitless tunes in a range of styles and genres, including techno, house, garage, hip-hop, R&B, manga, ambient, and more. MadPlayer's intuitive button-and-joystick interface lets you be your own composer, DJ, or producer. MadPlayer also happens to be a fully functional MP3 player with FM radio and karaoke abilities. It can store prerecorded music downloaded in all popular file formats, including MP3, WMA, and even MIDI. In the future, new versions of the MadPlayer's firmware (known as MadWare) may be downloaded to enhance the unit's features and capabilities. You needn't have had music theory or performance training to use the "generactive" music functions of the MadPlayer. Neither do you need a PC to operate, program, or compose with MadPlayer. Just turn it on and start making music! It's battery-powered for portable use using the included AA rechargeable batteries. The package contains the MadPlayer, a headset with microphone, a USB cable, a 32 MB SmartMedia card with preloaded samples, MadWare software and user's manual (including studio demo software programs Cakewalk Sonar 2.0, GoldWave Sound Editor, Steinberg MyMP3, and IK Multimedia's T-RackS 24), and two AA rechargeable batteries with charger.
