Lifetime Limited Warranty

MIDIMAN warrants that this product is free of defects in materials and workman-
ship under normal use so long as the product is owned by the original purchaser
and that purchaser has registered his/her ownership of the product by sending in
the completed warranty card.

In the event that MIDIMAN receives written notice of defects in materials or work-
manship from such an original purchaser, MIDIMAN will either replace the product,
repair the product, or refund the purchase price at its option. In the event any repair
is required, shipment to and from MIDIMAN and a nominal handling charge shall
be born by the purchaser. In the event that repair is required, a Return Authorization
number must be obtained from MIDIMAN.  After this number is obtained, the unit
should be shipped back to MIDIMAN in a protective package with a description of
the problem and the Return Authorization clearly written on the package.

In the event that MIDIMAN determines that the product requires repair because of
user misuse or regular wear, it will assess a fair repair or replacement fee.  The cus-
tomer will have the option to pay this fee and have the unit repaired and returned,
or not pay this fee and have the unit returned unrepaired. 

The remedy for breach of this limited warranty shall not include any other damages.
MIDIMAN will not be liable for consequential, special, indirect, or similar damages
or claims including loss of profit or any other commercial damage, even if its agents
have been advised of the possibility of such damages, and in no event will
MIDIMAN’s liability for any damages to the purchaser or any other person exceed
the price paid for the product, regardless of any form of the claim. MIDIMAN specif-
ically disclaims all other warranties, expressed or implied. Specifically, MIDIMAN
makes no warranty that the product is fit for any particular purpose.

This warranty shall be construed, interpreted, and governed by the laws of the state
of California. If any provision of this warranty is found void, invalid or unenforce-
able, it will not affect the validity of the balance of the warranty, which shall remain
valid and enforceable according to its terms. In the event any remedy hereunder is
determined to have failed of its essential purpose, all limitations of liability and
exclusion of damages set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect.
