“I was so passionate about playing music I became obsessed, but as I grew older I felt like the music I performed gravitated towards ‘profiting’ and farther away from a freedom of creativity and expression. It broke my heart and I gave up music as profession…will always regret it for the rest of my life. I don’t ever want a musician to go through what I went through. I’ll do anything I can to remind musicians their voices and creativity will always matter and inspire the rest of us.”

Our goal is to give artists a new and stimulating way to express themselves without sacrificing creativity, quality or integrity.

We wanted to find a way to truly represent live music in the most organic, unique and respectful way possible; what better way to do that than to have the actual performer behind the controls? Through intensive beta-testing with all types of musicians and instruments, we designed our controllers to be so simple and easy to use, performers can actually control everything as they play their instruments. Using hundreds of musical algorithms tested by real world music settings, musicians can generate color lighting to show every note, articulation and dynamic in realtime.

Innovation from every angle.

The first lighting controller designed for musicians to use while they perform live.

We made Pedal One so intuitive and easy to use performers can control everything while they are performing on stage.

“Set-it-and-forget-it” use or live audio and lighting control.

While some performers are more comfortable setting up their light shows before the concert, we know how crucial it can be to tweak settings on-the-fly. Pedal One, just like the musician, is adaptable to any and every scenario.

Unique and modern design for the unique and modern musician.

Unlike most lighting controllers and foot pedals, we take our product’s design as serious as our product’s performance. We want to inspire artists to think outside what we know.
