Frequently Asked Questions
It’s primarily designed for iPads, and while it might work with iPhones or other iOS devices, compatibility is less guaranteed and requires an adapter.
It’s surprisingly versatile for controlling filter cutoff, modulation depth, or panning—it’s not just a novelty if you put in the effort to map it effectively.
The pads are smaller and lighter than pro-level controllers, so you'll sacrifice some tactile feedback, but it's still perfectly functional for most triggering tasks.
