Description

  • VERSATILE MIDI CONTROLLER AND SEQUENCER: BeatStep is a chameleon controller and sequencer that provides nearly endless possibilities! Highly versatile, it allows you to trigger clips in apps like Ableton Live, finger-drum or make beats effortlessly, tweak your sound in real-time - or all at once! In addition, its compact format makes it the perfect companion on the road or in the studio.
  • TWO IN ONE…: With MIDI Controller mode, the 16 velocity- and pressure-sensitive pads make it the perfect compact solution for playing percussion, while sequencer mode turns it into an easy step sequencer. The 16 encoders will adjust pitch for the associated step. 16 memories allow for instant recall of your patterns while the pad scale modes, sequence playback modes and time division functions allow for real time performance changes.
  • …BOTH AT ONCE: This MIDI keyboard is both a pad/knob controller AND a step sequencer. But the best part is that you can run them both at the same time! You can have the step sequencer play your sound through the CV/Gate output, while you switch to CONTROL mode and trigger clips on Ableton Live and use the encoders to manipulate your VST version of SEM V. All at once!
  • ALL THE CONNECTIONS YOU NEED: BeatStep has MIDI, USB and CV connectivity, giving you a sequencer that will work with all types of gear, including analog synths, software instruments, and MIDI hardware. The BeatStep pads can be configured to send MIDI note on/off messages, MMC commands, Program and Bank changes, or serve as MIDI CC buttons.
  • CREATIVE SOFTWARE INCLUDED: BeatStep comes with all the creative software you need. Make great-sounding tracks in full (Ableton Live Lite), get hundreds of pro-grade synth and key sounds (Analog Lab Intro) and easily edit your MIDI setups and sequences (MIDI Control Center). You can use the encoders to adjust the effects in your favorite DJ app. The transport buttons can be MMC controls or send MIDI CCs to start and stop your DAW. It can be the MIDI Clock master or slave to an external clock.

Beat Step was designed to give you the control you need, whether you're working with your favorite DAW or loop triggering software, VST instrument or effect, drum software, DJ app, MIDI synth or even analog gear with CV/Gate inputs. The possibilities are nearly endless. Beat Step fulfills multiple requirements for a wide variety of musicians. It's truly a chameleon, ready and able to become many things to many people. No other compact pad controller on the market offers this level of control plus a step sequencer at such an amazing price.
