The full-sized velocity and pressure-sensitive pads are ideal for playing virtual instruments and even triggering loops.

MIDI Keyboard mode Note Repeat mode and Full Velocity mode gives you the ability to customise the control of your instruments.

In addition to the pads, the ATOM includes four programmable rotary encoders and 20 assignable buttons. This gives you added control which can be highly useful for live sets.

The endless encoders are perfect for controlling parameters within your virtual instrument, such as automation, panning and volumes.

The 20 assignable buttons function as standard transport controls, providing quick and easy navigation of settings. They can also be customised to trigger various settings changes.
