Presonus ATOM SQ MIDI Keyboard Pad Controller

About: Presonus ATOM SQ MIDI Keyboard Pad Controller

Modern musicians, performers, and producers need to move quickly from programming drums and samples to playing synth lines and back again. ATOM SQ was designed as a versatile and expressive MIDI pad controller for contemporary music production. Its unique design is optimized for both classic TR-style 16-step beat  sequencing and drum pattern editing in Studio One or playing instruments and launching clips in Ableton Live—yet its staggered and RGB-lit pad configuration is instantly familiar to anyone who’s playeda controller keyboard. Advanced features let you change the keyboard scale, and a built-in arpeggiator makes the ATOM SQ the most  expressive controller you’ll ever use. In fact, it’s the best PreSonus Studio One MIDI controller available.
