a compact and programmable MIDI control surface designed for interactive audio performance, with 64 clip buttons, 8 knobs, 2 faders and 7 function buttons
Livid Instruments' 'Block' is a compact and programmable MIDI control surface designed for interactive audio performance. Built on the same bi-directional and adaptable platform as the 'Ohm64', 'Block' provides a powerful interface for creating and interacting with sound in a small easy-to-transport body.
Sixty-four backlight led buttons provide endless possibilities for visual feedback with the instrument by connecting it to Ableton Live, Max/Msp, LI's open source sounds apps, or any other software that supports MIDI. The open source 'blockEditor' application lets you reprogram any of the controller's sixty four clip buttons, eight knobs, two faders, and seven function buttons. 'Block' is hand crafted from lightweight wood and aluminium for easy portability.
'Block' has bi-directional talkback communication allowing the controller to talk to your software, and software to your device.
MIDI messages can be sent to the 'Block' to light up the buttons for an interactive performance. Completely programmable and mappable, 'Block' provides a flexible control surface that can be used with any software or setup.
Completely USB-powered means you don't have to worry about adaptors and power strips, and it is 'plug and play' so no drivers are required.
