	Gil's Custom Console Solution Our Classic MIDI Pedalboard at work
	Pedalboard with Hauptwerk Claire of New York is building a Hauptwerk-based organ with the help of her son. They are currently using our Classic MIDI Pedalboard with a 3-stack of our CMK-2, tracker touch keyboards. Claire has found a used organ bench, and is using a standard folding table as a keyboard stand. The table has been raised with wooden blocks such that the console meets AGO specifications.
	MIDIjet Pro in the Netherlands Peter Hendrix of Trade Mark writes: "Played with midijet and my AX7 for the first time last week. Excellent!! See the pictures. I love it!!" Website: www.trade-mark.nl
	Audio Impressions NAMM 2006 Exhibit As a part of their NAMM 2006 Exhibit, Audio Impressions used four CMK keyboards and our MIDI pedalboard to control their Concert Organ Workstation - a software sample based organ.
	MIDIjet Pro with Roland AX7 Columbian rock band Zelfish Perez uses MIDIjet Pro with a Roland AX7. Band member Igor Guezz writes: "I bought a MIDIjet Pro 6 months ago. And I'm just writing to tell you that this thing has totally changed my life!!! I love this thing!!! I used it for the first time last weekend on Rock al Parque XI the largest free rock festival in South America, and it totally lived to the challenge of a huge stage. I played with my Roland AX7 and was able to run all over the place with flawless performance." Photo from Rock al Parque website.
	Hammond Pedalboard Retrofit A customer in the greater Toronto area wanted to add MIDI capability to his Hammond pedalboard, while maintaining its original functionality. We used our MKSC-4A MIDI matrix-wired key scan computer and added contact switches to each pedal.
	Wireless MIDI link in Church Classic Organ Works recently installed its control system as a part of an upgrade of the pipe organ at St. Anselms, near Halifax, Nova Scotia. A Classic Control system was being installed, which permitted the expansion of their organ with a Viscount CM-100 sound module. As the pipe organ console was located up in the gallery, the organist was interested in the ability of remotely controlling the console from an area closer to the congregation. An older Yamaha EL-90 console was made available, and MIDIjet Pro was used to connect the instruments, eliminating the need to route wire across the church. The combination proved to be a cost-effective way of adding a second console.
	Bruce Cassidy Playing Wireless EVI Bruce Cassidy (short bio) is a Toronto-based composer, Trumpet/EVI player and musical director for David Clayton-Thomas. He engaged Classic MIDI Works to embed its MIDIjet Pro into his EVI, a MIDI wind controller designed and built by Nyle Steiner. Pictures include Hotfoot Orchestra posters and a photo taken of Bruce Cassidy playing his EVI with MIDIjet Pro during a live recording with David Clayton-Thomas at the Opera House in Toronto on October 26th 2005.
	Pedalboard and CMK with Foot Controller Scott from Wales, UK, purchased 3 CMK manuals and a pedalboard, and writes: "I am VERY impressed with my purchase, and indeed so have been the few people who have been fortunate to see it (and indeed, play it!) so far." Scott uses this system, along with a Behringer FCB1010 MIDI foot controller, with Hauptwerk for the most part, but has also used Miditzer on occasion. He uses wall-mounted, height-adjustable shelving to support his system.
	MIDIjet Pro on U2 Vertigo Tour The MIDIjet Pro Wireless MIDI system has been spotted on U2's Vertigo Tour. MIDIjet has been used during the performances of The City Of Blinding Lights and Yahweh. These photos were taken by Matthias Muhlbradt in Berlin, Milan, and Gelsenkirchen in June and July of 2005. Matthias maintains an extensive U2 website at http://www.u2005.com/.
	Miditzer Exhibit at ATOS 2005 A group of Miditzer users, lead by the program's creator Jim Henry, created an exhibit for the 2005 ATOS convention in Los Angeles. The custom keyboard desk, with music stand, was created for the event. We hope to be able to post the plans and dimensions for the desk in the near future.
	Organ Workstation with 6' Folding Table At the 2005 NPM Convention in Milwaukee, Classic needed a simple and easy to ship setup to exhibit its keyboards and pedalboards. The solution was a standard 6' table with folding legs. Some small wooden blocks were constructed to lift the 30" high table by 2.5", ensuring that the bottom manual was 29.5" from the top of the pedals, meeting AGO specifications.
	MIDIjet Pro Built into Wind Controller Matt Traum of Patchman Music has built a MIDIjet Pro into his MIDI EVI wind controller. Patchman, an authorized MIDIjet dealer, offers a custom modification for the MIDI EVI to turn it into an self-contained wireless MIDI wind controller using MIDIjet Pro.
	Hauptwerk Organ Built In Phases Brian constructed his organ in stages, with an initial cost of only $66. His workstation has come a long way! The costs associated with each phase are documented on the Hauptwerk Organ Plan page of his website. Of particular interest is how the organ has been built into the small alcove in his home - the custom desk is quite nice. Brian runs the midiorgan.com website, which is a great resource for anyone looking to assemble a home, hobby or practice organ.
	Pedalboard and CMK with Hauptwerk Jackie from Ontario uses her CMK keyboards and pedalboard with Hauptwerk. She has setup the system on a desk from Ikea, and has added a platform to support her pedalboard over the desk's legs, as well as a music sheet holder. As the same desk accomodates her computer's monitor and amplified speakers, it's a great example of what can be accomplished in small spaces. Visit the articles section of this site for more information on how to assemble a similar system.
	Pedalboard and MIDIjet James from Michigan has purchased a Classic MIDI Pedalboard and MIDIjet, which he uses with jOrgan and Miditzer. A Yamaha MFC10 provides toe piston and expression pedal functionality, and a Yamaha 9000 Pro is used for the first manual. A unique feature of James' organ is the ability to detach the second manual, a Roland AX-7, and use it wirelessly if desired.

	MIDIjet Pro and Zendrum Two black cable ties are used to attach the MIDIjet Pro to the Zendrum strap. Note the 9V battery - Tom has modified his MIDIjet to supply power to his Zendrum. The Zendrum Battery Box is another possibility for those not wanting to make such modifications. Photo contributed by Tom Mason.
