The 8 phrase pads trigger drums, samples, patterns, and audio files, while the WAV import function expands your palette. The dedicated mic input includes noise gate, EQ, reverb, and compressor, plus vocoder and auto-pitch for creative vocal performances.
On the connectivity side, the USB-C class compliant interface ensures plug-and-play audio/MIDI connection with computers and smartphones for livestreaming and direct recording. USB-C mobile battery power and lightweight construction secure your sessions on the move.
