New from Coyote R&D is the Musi-Can PC digital audio workstation -- a 1U high, 13 inch
deep, high performance, rackmount PC that can stream hundreds of voices
from soft-samplers or soft-synthesizers.
The Musi-Can is a ready to go, out of the box, turnkey computer solution for
the musician. You can drop it into any Mac or PC
environment, using Coyote R&D's remote control software to command an entire rack of Musi-Cans from a single PC or Mac, without the
need for any additional monitors, mice, keyboards, or KVM switchboxes.
In addition, Coyote R&D has also released a cross-platform
MIDI-over-network drivers for both PC and Mac. With up to 256 MIDI ports per
machine, each Musi-Can has a fat MIDI pipe with 3000x the bandwidth of a
standard MIDI cable -- all automatically configured, all automatically
routed.
Features:
- Rackmount, only 1U high and 13 inches deep, containing a complete, fully
configured PC.
- NetMIDI drivers - 256 ports of MIDI over network, cross-platform PC (Windows
95/98/ME/NT/2K/XP) and Mac (OS 8.x-9.x and OS X) drivers, with setup-free
auto-configuration.
- Remote Control - Full, cross-platform, remote control with low CPU
utilization, for both PC and Mac. No additional monitors, mice, keyboards,
or KVM switchboxes needed.
- Acousi-Therm monitoring software for fully automatic control of fan speeds.
Acousti-Therm keeps your Musi-Can cool, even on stage under a baking sun.
- Restore and Recover CD - Fully automatic, multi-level recovery CD with
restoration to factory specs without any loss of your data.
- A completely stripped down, optimized, and stabilized Windows operating
system that gives you hundreds of streaming voices without any pops or
clicks.
Pricing and availability:
Musi-Can Lite systems start at $1095 for a fully configured, ready to go
system.
