MIDI Touch Controllers

Chords

The Chords feature is present on the Drumpads, 8x8 Pad Grid, Keyboard and Hex Controllers. It allows you to assign chords to individual keys. This can significantly speed up your workflow and allow you to experiment

Drumpads

Yeco’s pad controller displays pad names directly from Live. Each pad has positional velocity control which allows you to easily control the dynamics of your beats, chord progressions and melodies. You can set the direction of the control axis and also turn this feature off to set an absolute velocity for each pad. You can also choose the MIDI output channel and toggle sliding from pad to pad.

8x8 Pad Grid

This pad controller has all the features of the drumpads but laid out in an 8x8 pad configuration which is very convenient for packs of 64 samples etc

Keyboard

The MIDI keyboard also has position velocity control on a toggle. It has large and small key modes, pitch and modulation controls, plus the slide toggle present on the pad controller. The keyboard has a channel pressure function which adds aftertouch controlled by sliding your finger up and down along the vertical axis. It also has assignable MIDI sliders, buttons and toggles plus access to rack controls.

Hex Controller : Single and Double

The Hex Controller uses an isomorphic keyboard arranged in a harmonic table note layout. The main feature of this layout is that you can learn one chord or scale pattern and transpose it to any key or octave by simply moving the pattern elsewhere on the grid. It has all the features of the pad controller and can be enabled in two different sizes. Read a more in-depth description and download a chord chart here

MIDI Control Panel

This Panel consists of 56 independent, assignable MIDI control elements including: sliders, knobs,

buttons & toggles

XY Pads

Four very large XY pads for simultaneous dual parameter control with extreme precision.
