MIDI Captain DUO

Der MIDI Captain STD ist nicht nur ein MIDI-Controller, sondern ein umfassender musikalischer Performance-Assistent. Er unterstützt das Senden von Program Change (PC), Continuous Control (CC) und Note-Befehlen und bietet vollständig programmierbare Fußschalter. Eine innovative „Time Engine“-Funktion erlaubt das Aufzeichnen und Abspielen von Fußschalter-Aktionen, wodurch komplexe Schaltsequenzen automatisiert werden können. Das Gerät kann über USB tiefgreifend konfiguriert werden (Firmware-/Konfigurationsdateien laden) und bietet mehrere Stromversorgungsoptionen (9 V Netzteil, USB oder Batterie). Die STD-Version (schwarz) verzichtet auf das eingebaute wireless MIDI-Modul, nutzt aber ansonsten dieselben Funktionen wie die Pro-Versionen.

This foot-controller offers ten fully programmable foot-switches and supports a mixture of MIDI Program Change (PC), Control Change (CC), and MIDI Note commands. It features a “Time Engine” function meant to record and automate key-actions (so you can set up complex switch sequences ahead of time). It supports USB deep-setup (via connecting to PC and loading firmware/config files) and has multiple power input options (9 V, USB, battery). The STD version (black) seems to omit built-in wireless MIDI compared to some other versions (so you’ll likely use wired MIDI out or standard USB).
