Paint Audio MIDI Captain Foot Controller Multi-Effects Keyboards Synthesizer USB-MIDI musical software Bias with Time Engine Function Support all PC/CC/Note commander 10 Foot Switches (Gold)

Das Gerät ist hochwertig verarbeitet und macht durch die beleuchteten LED-Taster auch optisch einiges her. Besonders für Live- und Homestudio-Gitarristen bietet es alle wichtigen Funktionen, die man im Alltag benötigt. Zu den wichtigsten Features gehören: Mehrere frei programmierbare Fußtaster mit LED-Anzeige Senden von MIDI Program Change (PC) und Control Change (CC) Befehlen Unterstützung für verschiedene MIDI-Protokolle (z. B. USB-MIDI und 5-Pin MIDI, je nach Version) Preset- und Bank-Wechsel für schnelles Umschalten Kompatibilität mit gängigen Modelern und Effektgeräten (z. B. Kemper, Helix, Quad Cortex etc.) Kompaktes, roadtaugliches Metallgehäuse Ich bin sehr zufrieden und würde jederzeit erneut kaufen 🤘

The MIDI Captain is well-made, powerful, versatile, provides great value, and has massive potential to evolve. I'm really rooting for this company to do well with this product. The MIDI Captain can work on a very basic level, allowing you to to control effects, sequencers, and other MIDI gear. It has different modes that will suit different types of users and workflows. The device is also capable of deep, expert-level configuration to do more complex tasks, including sending QWERTY keystrokes, mouse-clicks, and playing back timed sequences of actions. Unfortuately, the documentation is disorganized and not clearly written. For example, the instructions for installing the firmware say "Turn computer off" but it really means turn the MIDI Captain off. There's no way a noob could possibly know that. I think a new user might have trouble sorting through the different downloads and options that are on the website. I'm pretty experienced and it was kind of confusing to me. Be aware that managing data when it is in USB setup mode, all file processes are VERY slow. All the firmware installation tasks, deleting files, copying, emptying trash, ejecting, all take a LONG time-- way longer than you think should be necessary. Be patient. Just wait until it's done. It all works fine, though. And the docs do give accurate warnings about that. The expression pedals inputs are expecting a TRS connector, with the wiper of the potentiometer connected to the RING of the TRS plug (not the tip). If the pedal is wired/connected this way, it works perfectly. If your pedal doesn't work right, you might want to try adapting the cable so that the tip & ring are reversed. The manual makes no mention of this, but it is mentioned in one video. I've seen reviewers complain about the unit, when they've just got the wrong kind of pedal/wiring. I wish Paint Audio would add a proper MIDI NOTE OFF command (as opposed to using NOTE ON, VELOCITY 0). This way you can enter release velocities-- which is good both for synths that support it, but also can be used in other ways. I also wish that each and every command/message could be sent to any combination of MIDI, USB, and MIDI MATE-- even all three. That is how the Ampero Control works, and it's clever. It might make sense for there to be a user forum, but I could see why that's a can of worms. At the moment, it feels a bit like doing a research project to put the whole picture together. OK, after sharing some of the frustrations, I still think this is a fantastic product, and I'm hopeful that it will get more updates and improvements.

Seul produit sur le marché qui soit aussi puissant, souple d'utilisation et compact. La programmation et les mises à jour de Firmware sont un peu foutraque, mais après tout, pas plus que les autres footswitch du même genre (prévoir un doliprane et un peu de motivation). Sinon, preset parfait, bien pensé et "out of the box" pour un Kemper Player. Attention avec les piles rechargeables ! L'affichage devient vite très sombre et l'autonomie est assez limitée. Avec des piles neuves (non rechargeables, donc) on tient dans les 3/4 heures. Par contre la connection direct en USB qui fait à la fois alimentation et liaison midi tout en un, très pratique.

Deciding to buy this was difficult. People either rave about it or talk about horrendous experiences. I have an expanded pedal board based on a Boss ES8 and Morningstar ML5 for 5 extra loops. The ES8 doesn’t quite give me enough footswitches and I’m limited on space. The Morningstar MC6 Pro has fewer switches, is bulkier and costs nearly 3 times the price so I got my Captain delivered yesterday. I am very happy with it. I have 2 banks set up mainly addressing the ML5 and easy access of Source Audio EQ2 presets. I have read no manual but I watched the firmware update video and got all the other information from Scott Uhl’s 22 minute video. Firmware update hit a glitch on my Mac. I got an error transferring the entire update so I did it a folder at a time. Turns out a couple of language files, which I don’t need, were the issue so I left them off. Other issue I encountered, which I also experienced with the ML5 (but fixed by getting a MIDI hub), is that with the ES8 MIDI going through the Captain - ES8 commands weren’t getting to my other devices. This was fixed by putting the Captain MIDI before the ES8. As the Captain is another controller on the board I couldn’t put it through the MIDI hub. Complaints? Well I can’t bring myself to pay £40 for the wireless dongle. Around £25 would be more sensible. Also note - and I realised this after I ordered the STD version so I had to cancel and reorder - the STD version does not have WiFi! For the extra £10 it’s worth having it even if you don’t need it now.

Tiene varios modos, yo uso geek mode, ya que se me hace muy facil editar los comandos desde la rueda y boton que vienen alado de la pantalla. Se siente de buena calidad y funciono rapidisimo, lo unico malo es el tiempo para actualizarlo, tiene una memoria muy lenta pero fuera de eso solo lo tienes que hacer una vez si quieres agregarle los nuevos modos
