MIDI Polyphonic Expression
MIDI Polyphonic Expression is the key to exploring gestures to control electronic instruments. The motions of your finger on the keys and pads translate into new dimensions of expression; control cutoff frequency of a filter with pressure, or bend the pitch with the vibrato you might expect from a fretless string instrument. Keith McMillen has a wide range of MPE controllers for all varieties of performer and producer.
QuNexus MPE MIDI Sequencer and Arpeggiator
Keith McMillen Instruments revisited their classic QuNexus MIDI controller and brought forth an update full of exciting new features to completely reimagine the instrument. The QuNexus is now an affordable hardware MPE MIDI sequencer and arpeggiator, with three programmable tracks and all the CV/gate connections you’d want to control your software or modular synthesizers.
MIDI Foot Controllers
Keith McMillen Instruments is there to help when you have your hands full. Their signature MIDI foot controllers — the SoftStep 2 and the 12 Step — are among the most flexible and customizable MIDI foot controllers ever made. When you need a foot controller for your virtual pedalboard, rackmount effects processor, or synthesizer, KMI has you covered.
BopPad Drum Pad Controller
BopPad is the expressive drum pad control surface, tough enough for the most brutal percussive assault, yet sensitive enough to play with the lightest touch from your fingers. Each of the four quadrants can play up to five notes and four CCs mapped to pressure or position along the radius. Adding an electronic drum pad to your rig has never been easier, whether you’re behind the kit or programming beats.
K-Mix, the Audio Multi-tool
The K-Mix is the ultimate audio multi-tool — a programmable digital mixer, an audio interface, and a MIDI control surface in one portable package. K-Mix can be at the center of your bedroom studio, or on stage running sound for an entire playback system, or in a sub mix for recording drums, or at the core of an immersive multichannel audio installation. The sky is the limit with this incredibly adaptable piece of equipment.
Smart Fabric Sensors
At the core of Keith McMillen Instruments is a specially developed proprietary sensor fabric material — a variably resistive felted material imbued with carbon nanoparticles. This material, when used in conjunction with the proper circuit board traces, gives KMI controllers a robustness that comes from having no moving parts.
