Synido TempoPAD C16 Wireless Bluetooth MIDI Controller

Product Description

Synido TempoPAD C16 Wireless Bluetooth MIDI Controller

The TempoPAD C16 is a Bluetooth MIDI controller for mobile music creators, redefining live electronic music control—from preset switching and dynamic effects to multi-device synchronization, all at your fingertips.


How It’s Innovative

1. Computer-free configuration: Directly assign MIDI parameters (channel, note number, trigger mode, etc.) to knobs, faders, buttons, and pads without a computer.

2. Expandable control banks: 4 pad banks (A/B/C/D) + 4 control module banks, scalable to 64 pads, 32 knobs, 16 faders, and 48 keys—independently mappable via MIDI channels.

3. Bluetooth MIDI + 5-pin MIDI: Seamlessly integrates hardware/software, streamlining mobile workflows.

4. Unique features for electronic producers:
– AUM host integration: Trigger loops/samples via pads; control mix parameters (volume, pan) with knobs for modular live setups.
– Riffer app sync: Generates randomized melodic sequences (refreshed every 8 bars) with real-time pad intervention.
– Vintage FX emulation: Built-in vinyl noise layer with HPF knob control for Lo-Fi atmospheres.

Expansion Plans

By end-2025: Add relative encoder knob functionality (three modes).

Technical note (for reference):
A MIDI relative encoder is a hardware component (typically a knob) that reports incremental changes rather than absolute positions. Key advantages:
– Theoretically infinite resolution: Smooth parameter adjustments (e.g., filter fine-tuning) via micro-increments.
– Zero jumps: Continuous parameter changes based on stored values, eliminating abrupt shifts.
– No sync issues: Physical knob position is independent of software values, ensuring seamless control.
– Ideal for endless rotaries: Naturally supports infinite-spin knobs.
