  • Output: MIDI Note signals or MIDI Control Change signals
  • Input: MIDI Note signals
  • 12 white LEDs which visualize MIDI Notes
  • Random light mode
  • USB-MIDI class compliant. No additional drivers are needed
  • Web app to configure MIDI settings
  • Micro USB (comes with USB-C to Micro USB adapter cable)
  • Under 3 milliseconds latency

  1. High resolution (14-bit) capable? It would be cool if they had included a “pedal in” so you could use other types of resistors with the same circuit. But if it is bog-standard 7-bit CC, then this is simply a turn-key “D-beam” type thing.
