always gliding to a specific note within a key and scale you designate. As a result, the Altura always
plays in tune!
The Altura was designed as a companion to the Macchiato Mini Synth by Zeppelin Design Labs.
There are a few special features that will only work well when paired with the Macchiato. Otherwise,
the Altura conforms with General MIDI specifications and should easily
control any device bearing this mark. Many MIDI devices do not conform
to the General MIDI specification. These devices will not necessarily
respond to the Altura as described herein. In these cases, you may need
to fiddle a bit with your synthesizer to get it to behave. Alternatively, you
can route your Altura controller through a software application that will
enable you to redirect its data as needed.
The Altura comes as an easy do-it-yourself kit, or assembled and ready-to-use. You can make your own
case from card stock or from a cereal box using the provided template, or you can get a shiny black
acrylic case. The acrylic case also comes as a super-easy kit or assembled and ready-to-use.
Connect with your music like never before: build your own gear!
