Performance and Control
The pressure-sensitive keyboard and multifunction fader enable expressive playing and deep modulation without menu diving. Grid-synced loops allow timing-perfect layering, ideal for dub builds and breakdowns. Tight MIDI sync maintains solid communication with external gear, while the punch-in FX and main FX deliver instant dub sirens, tape-style delays, spring-inspired reverbs and characterful modulation for hands-on shaping in the moment. The unit encourages dynamic, physical interaction, mirroring classic dub performance techniques with modern precision.
Connectivity and Build
Stereo input and output allow flexible routing for sampling and integration with hardware rigs. Sync in and out maintain clock integrity with drum machines and sequencers, and MIDI in and out ensure compatibility with studio and stage setups. USB-C offers modern data handling and power options. The slim 240 x 176 x 16 mm format suits portable rigs yet stays robust for gig use.
