USB MIDI Pad-Controller

BeatStep is an extremely compact and mobile pad controller for controlling MIDI instruments and DAWs, triggering clips in Ableton Live or playing drum software like EZDrummer or FXpansions BFD. BeatStep is also musical! With its 16-step sequencer, you can quickly generate musical phrases and send them via MIDI Out to your MIDI synthesizers or via USB to your software in your computer and iPad. Via its CV/Gate interface you can additionally address analog synthesizers like the MiniBrute, MicroBrute or Modular Racks.
