WEB CONFIGURATOR + DEVICE MEMORY

CONFIGURE WITH CLARITY. PLAY WITHOUT THE BROWSER.

Monitor input pressure and processed MIDI output, edit the layers, and save the setup to P1, P2 or P3. Once the configuration is sent to the controller, the browser does not need to remain open for normal performance.

LIVE RESPONSE VIEWView breath input and the layers' processed MIDI output on the same working surface.
01

Three independent layers

Set each layer's MIDI destination, channel, input/output range and response independently.

02

Shape the response around your playing

Use curve, Attack and Release settings to define how breath movement becomes MIDI output.

03

Manage the resting response

Use Breath Onset and Stage Safe when a setup needs a defined starting or idle response.
