Welcome

 

Thank you for purchasing a Hot Hand USB Wireless MIDI Controller.  Hot Hand USB is the 
latest innovation in music motion control from Source Audio.  Hot Hand USB consists of a 
small wireless 3-axis motion and tilt-sensing Ring and a USB Receiver.  The Receiver 
installs without drivers and appears as a MIDI device to your Windows or Mac PC.  The 
MIDI output from the Receiver can be assigned to control an infinite number of 
parameters in your DAW (digital audio workstation) or live performance audio software 
to help you bring dynamic motion control to your music. 
 

Demo Projects 

As a starting point, we have created sample projects and songs for a variety of software 
packages using Hot Hand to control various parameters.  The project files can be 
downloaded from the Hot Hand USB product page:

Charging

 

To get started using Hot Hand, first you need to charge your 
Hot Hand Ring.  The Ring can be charged by connecting the 
included AC adapter power supply to the charging jack on 
the back of the Ring.  The Ring features a fast-charging and 
high performance Li-ion battery.  When the charger is 
connected, the blue LED on the Ring will blink quickly.  
When the charge is complete, the LED will turn off.  
Charging time is around 1.5 hours.  On a full charge, the 
Ring can be used for around 6 hours.
