Folks this time I am looking for a smallish hardware module to play midi files. It has to have the abilty to "jump" in real time, to one of a few specified measures in the song, at the press of a button. The ability to control the clock and filter SysEx would be nice, but really all it has to do is send note messages.

Now the Roland E-series will do exactly what I want with their mark/ jump buttons, but I would prefer something more compact. The Midjay is smaller and would be another excellent choice, but it is kind of expensive just for this purpose.

That leaves me with the ancient Yamaha QY-700, and maybe the less-expensive QY-100. Does any other company make a module or piece of hardware that plays MIDI files with a mark/jump feature?
Thanks,
Ted S.

N.B. based on the manuals, Korg's older i40m and the Ketron XD3 seem to lack this feature. -Ted
