WHAT CAN IT DO FOR ME?


The evo is a pure keyboard controller that is connected to a computer via an Ethernet interface, and that communicates via Midi or OSC with synthesizers, sequencers or similar. The keys are the special feature here. Every single key is equipped with a sensor that allows evo to read the finger position on a certain area of the key surface. Thus, every key has, in addition to pitch and velocity, another level of the polyphonic data input that can be used for continuous control via cutoff, resonance, pitch other. Also via polyphonic after-touch.

   

Every key is a fader, controller, a pitch-wheel, a mod-wheel or a button. Think about a precise, continuous control of polyphone properties. Everything that previously affected notes equally using controllers and buttons can now be executed with simple moves of the finger on the keys for each individual note. In the future you will play chords and move one finger to emphasize one single note by changing the acoustic pattern, or to change the pitch regardless of the other notes. Additionally, the function of every single key can be defined so that you can reproduce the MIDI controller on every key. This way, entire octaves can be used for the control of channel strips. However you decide, with evo everything is possible. We made sure of that!

 

MIDI Support


As modern as the evo may appear to be, MIDI is part of the standard. Simply use your finger position on the keys to control the synthesizer by means of polyphonic after-touch commands.


OSC Support


And especially because it is this modern, the stuff coming out from behind evo is in digital form, designed according to OSC specification. However, do not fear, the integration is child’s play!


Availability


You must act fast! We maintain a relatively small, hand-made production series. The evo can be purchased in our store system and shipped within the EU and to the United States.
