Acoustica announces the release of AeroMIDI 3D MIDI controller software. This groundbreaking software allows users to trigger notes and MIDI continuous controller messages with hand and finger movements in 3D space. AeroMIDI works with any MIDI software or hardware including synthesizers, lighting rigs, DAWs, effects, virtual instruments, and more.
AeroMIDI
The software enables control of six expression parameters using only one hand, or use both hands and control up to 12 simultaneous expression parameters. User-defined virtual spaces called “cubes” and “zones” allow easy triggering of events, beats or notes. Perform a gesture, such as a two-fingered swipe to the left, and suddenly you’ve enabled a whole new mode or set of expression controls and MIDI actions.
Simply plug a Leap Motion Controller into a USB port, load and install the AeroMIDI software, and start your MIDI software or external synthesizer. AeroMIDI then sends controller data and notes to MIDI software or external hardware. Control synthesizers, lighting rigs, visualizers, DAWs, effects, virtual instruments, and any other MIDI-capable hardware or software with AeroMIDI.
