"Juzisound" Real Time Arranger

Version: 4.23
Juzisound Real Time Arranger is a software that turns any PC into a REALTIME
MIDI arranger. Which goal is to work in the heavy conditions of realtime playing. In
order to use it you need whatever MIDI keyboard and also a multitembral sound
module (or a wavetable sound card). The software DOES NOT produce any sound
itself, it only recognizes the chords coming to the MIDi IN, transposes the information
of the currently playing style and sends it back to the MIDI OUT.
It assures 5 tracks for Lower and Upper tracks (3 for Upper and 2 for Lower). The
combination of parameters for Lower and Upper is called Patches. It can handle up to
36 Patches and 36 user-editable styles, each consisted of 8 Variations. Each Variation
has 8 tracks: Acc1, Acc2, Acc3, Acc4, Acc5, Bass, Drums and Percusion. The set of 36
styles could be saved into a single *.JAM file or each style could be saved separate in
a *.STL file. The software has a powerful style Editor, which has everything for
creation and edition of a style into whatever measure it is (4/4, 6/8, 7/8, 9/8, 18/16,
etc). It could handle also up to 172 User Setups, /which remember the already
chosen style, variation, tempo and patch /, and callable even if a MIDI file Player
mode is running. The software has integrated MIDI File format 0 Player /working on
original algoritm, better than anything else on the market /. The player could
remember the ordering and the parameters of up to 160 MIDI files and has also the
ability to choose and start a MIDI file while the arranger is playing a style or another
MIDI file. Some of its other features are: Start from the first note, Sysex and Bank
Change filter, patch change balance, tempo, transpose a separate track or the whole
file, sending of user-defined Sysex messages before or after a MIDI file is played.
There is also a Sysex manager, useful for information transfer btw. Different musical
instruments. The software can handle up to four programmable pedals attached to the
COM port of the PC, which themselves can imitate the action of any of the PC
keybord keys. Following are the major characteristics of the software:
