Open Labs tell us that Gen 3 MiKo is the first portable digital music, video, and animation system that provides the power of a fully-loaded Windows XP-based computer, a world-class synthesizer, a video mixer/recorder, and a broadband Internet hub in an affordable unit.
Tom Linklater, vice president of sales for Open Labs told us, “The MiKo has captured the imagination of a wide range of musical artists; it is simple enough to demonstrate in a dealer’s shop and complex enough to perform every kind of multimedia session that a user could want. The MiKo SE and MiKo LX represent a new breakthrough product for the market, and we will be able to satisfy all requests for what is a tremendous mobile production instrument.”
MiKo extends the power of Open Labs’ NeKo to a broader audience of users, which include DJs, VJs, music video hobbyists, and amateur musicians. At the heart of MiKo is a 64-bit single and dual core processor, which drives a powerful built-in, design-specific, full-featured, Windows XP- based computer system. MiKo users can literally record, edit, mix, master, burn, and distribute their creations, whether high-definition video or 7.1 surround sound audio, on DVD or audio CD or send straight to the Internet, either through Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
The MiKo SE includes:
Also included is the Open Labs Karsyn VST host for limitless sounds; Cubase LE for recording, and Traktor LE for DJing. The MiKo LX includes:
The Open Labs MiKo is the first integrated portable digital media workcenter to provide a production hub for all digital artistic elements, including:
MiKo features Open Labs’ suite of applications – Karsyn, mFusion, and the Open Labs Navigator – which, say the company, are a breakthrough set of technologies that allow users to control different musical keyboard devices and software packages through a single interface. Open Labs say that together they create a clean, efficient environment for creation and performance. Instead of a complicated general-purpose computing environment, MiKo presents a streamlined user experience ideally suited for efficiency in the studio, and clarity and speed on stage.
Craig Negoescu, chief architect of Open Labs had this to say, “The MiKo is a game-changer for today’s digital artists, and the new MiKo SE and MiKo LX capture all of the essential features for a single-unit multimedia unit at a competitive price point. We have generated tremendous interest from our initial MiKo product, and can now address an even wider audience with these new units.”
Included with each MiKo is the Open Labs sound library, which contains more than 5,000 preset sounds and hundreds of effects, as well as Cubase LE for direct- to-disk recording and mastering.
