Phantasmal Force is a 16 button, 1 knob, micro (reeeaaally small) MIDI controller that sends messages via USB C and TRS-A. It can be completely customized from the device itself (no external editor required). The Phantasmal Force is a MIDI device not a MIDI host, so MIDI over USB will only work when connected to a MIDI host (such as a Mac, PC, iPad).
Want to send 16 different CC messages with random values? Fine. Want to send different chords with the top eight buttons and single notes with the bottom eight? Okay! Need a little DAW controller to throw in your bag that send PLAY/STOP and some Program Change messages? Why not? The ->CLICKY<- tactile buttons are NOT velocity sensitive, but can be configured to send random values between specific ranges. For example you can send a MIDI note randomized between a velocity of 70-90 to give the notes a more human feel. Or maybe send some random CC values to your synth's filter and then reach up and turn the knob to dial it back to a specific value.
Button Modes are set for each button individually. Available Button Modes include:
- CC momentary (with hold/release values)
- CC toggle (with a/b values)
- NOTE (with min/max adjustable velocity randomization)
- Chord (adjustable three note chord sent on button press)
- Play (MIDI transport play)
- Stop (MIDI transport stop)
- Program Change up
- Program Change down
- Program Change (specific #)
- Transpose (+/- 24 semi-tones)
- Pitch Bend with LFO
- CC LFO
- ARP (1-16 steps with 43 scales & generative probability/pitch/velocity)
- CC Sequencer (1-16 steps with generative probability/CC value)
The knob is a potentiometer with hard stops in each direction (not an endless encoder). It can be set to control various parameters based on the button mode of the last button pressed.
