Freehand systems Musicpad pro V 4.0.11.8 - Includes Premium tool software

Freehand Musicpad Pro in excellent condition! Version 4.0.11.8 includes Musicpad pro, Freehand carrying bag, stylus, original power supply, original CD installation disk, swivel mount bracket (for using the Musicpad pro on a regular music stand), metal peg (for using the Musicpad pro on a table top). Pad also includes the $99 upgraded software (Premium tools) that include a Pitch pipe, Metronome, and MP3 player!  Unit has been tested and works like new. I have owned this unit for the last several years, and never have had any problem with it. Not included is a flash drive which can be purchased very cheap now days. Doesn't come in original box. Not sure how much charge the internal batteries hold, as I always used the pad connected to AC power.

*Special note- the swivel mount bracket works ok, but the plastic clip(not sure that's the correct name for it..) at the bottom of the bracket broke off by accident.. so when using this bracket you might want to secure the pad in place with some tape or some other way to secure the pad in place. The pad mounts to the bracket as is, and gravity pretty much keeps the Musicpad in place...but you still might want to be sure by securing it before using it!

The user manual and installation software is on the CD, and can also be downloaded on the web. This unit is unfortunately no longer in production, and is a fantastic tool and much less expensive than buying an Ipad or similar to organize all of your scores or graphics!

You can even annotate and make color notes right on the page of music, zoom in or out, add or erase rehearsal marks and much more. This is truly the 21st century way to manage all your sheet music.

Scan and store your entire music library
By using a Mac or PC, you can easily scan all your sheet music and save it in the MusicPad Pro's onboard memory. You can even download thousands of titles from different supplier's on the web, like Sheetmusicnow.com . Once it's onboard, you can annotate or make color notes directly into the MusicPad Pro with full zoom in and zoom out capabilities. Add or erase rehearsal marks and notations while leaving your original sheet music untouched.

View your music on a large, easy to read, backlit touch screen
The large, easy to read 12.1-inch TFT backlit LCD color display eliminates the need for external music stand lighting, thus eliminating clutter. What's more, the low glare touch screen lets you make notes in your own handwriting, correct errors or highlight key passages in a variety of colors. Go ahead and add notes or symbols to each score. A special look-ahead feature with patented half-page turn means you'll never miss a single note. To turn the page, just touch the screen. Or use the display in landscape mode to view two pages at a time. Page turns can also be accomplished by using an optional foot pedal.

64MB Flash memory/128MB RAM
The MusicPad Pro Plus comes standard with 128MB of RAM. You'll be astounded how your entire (often unruly) collection of sheet music fits so neatly into this simple tablet. Tuck it under your arm or in a briefcase or music bag and go! Additional external memory is available.

AC power and rechargeable battery
The MusicPad Pro Plus can easily be powered by AC when it's convenient. When it's not, there are onboard nickel hydride batteries that will run for approximately four hours with the backlit screen set to .5 brightness. Every time you plug the MusicPad Pro into an AC power supply, the batteries will charge up.

Mac and PC compatible with two USB ports
Whether you own a PC or a Mac, the MusicPad Pro is fully compatible with Windows 98, 2000, ME and XP or Mac OS 9.1 or higher, including OS X. Simply connect the MusicPad Pro to your computer via USB or an external USM-Ethernet adapter and you're set to go using the FreeHand software (supplied).
