Model: TempoPAD C16
Features
- [Wireless Freedom, Limitless Creativity] - Powered by a 3000mAh rechargeable battery delivering up to 5 hours of continuous use, the C16 pairs with BLE MIDI for low-latency wireless control over Koala Sampler and other DAWs on iOS and Android. No power outlet, no USB tether just your tablet or phone, transformed into a fully mobile production studio.
- [Standalone Editing for Excellent Portability] - Assign MIDI channels, notes, CC messages, and trigger modes directly from the hardware no computer-based editor required. This hardware-first workflow keeps you in the creative zone: program your template once, then recall it instantly for live jams or studio sessions without touching a mouse.
- [Pro-Level Control in a Compact Body] - Don't let the compact footprint fool you. With 4 pad banks + 4 control banks, the C16 expands to 64 velocity-sensitive trigger pads, 32 assignable knobs, 16 faders, and 48 buttons accessible at the tap of a bank button. Each bank supports independent MIDI channel assignment, allowing you to sequence multiple hardware synths or software instruments from a single controller.
- [Onboard 16-Step / 16-Track Sequencer & Note Repeat] Build complex rhythmic patterns without looking at a screen. The C16's built-in 16-track/16-step sequencer lets you program and playback patterns directly on the hardware perfect for sketching beats on the go. With per-pad Note Repeat (speed adjustable from 1/4 to 1/32 triplets), you can dial in groove with adjustable Swing, shape note length with Gate control, and generate rolling hi-hats or percussive. Your patterns run independently, making the C16 a standalone rhythm engine that doesn't rely on your DAW's clock.
- [Visual Feedback & Performance Ready] 16 RGB backlit pads deliver real-time visual feedback that syncs with your tracks ideal for Ableton Live Session View clip launching. Choose from three operation modes to match your environment: Key Mode for melodic playing, Custom Mode for user-defined mappings, and Dark Mode for low-light stages. Tap to trigger loops, vocals, melodic samples, or drum hits the pads respond with velocity sensitivity that translates your playing dynamics directly into the music.
- [Complete Connectivity Hub] The C16 fits seamlessly into any setup. USB-C provides class-compliant plug-and-play connectivity to Mac, PC, iOS, and Android devices. BLE MIDI handles wireless communication, while 5-pin MIDI In/Out/Thru (via included TRS-to-DIN adapters) integrates hardware synths, drum machines, and external sound modules into your workflow. Use the MIDI Thru port to replicate and daisy-chain clock signals the C16 becomes the central hub of your hybrid studio, not just another peripheral.
- Important Clarification: The C16 is a USB-MIDI control it does not generate audio on its own. To hear your music, you'll need to connect it to a DAW (desktop or mobile), an external hardware sound module, or a software instrument via MIDI Out. The C16 has no audio input or output and is designed as a controller, not a standalone synthesizer or sampler.
