BeatStep is a complete controller with pads that also works as a spectacular step sequencer. BeatStep's complete connectivity allows you to sequence analog equipment that uses the CV/GATE standard at 1V/Octave, iPad applications and software instruments (either via MIDI or USB). In other words: With BeatStep you can play drums, create sequenced melodies (the selection of scales makes it really fun) and control any device that has MIDI. With an unparalleled amount of features and controls and excellent build quality, BeatStep is certainly the best controller with pads in its price range. The built-in step sequencer with CV connections combined with the ability to adjust scales makes BeatStep much more than just another controller.
