A revolutionary MIDI controller that unlocks intuitive music creation.
The revolutionary Exquis controller by Intuitive Instruments gives you an entirely new way to create music. With 61 expressive hexagonal keys that respond to velocity, pressure and tilt, you have unparalleled control over your sound. Exquis leverages MIDI Polyphonic Expression to shape each individual note, allowing nuanced manipulation that transforms playing into an intuitive, emotive experience. The easy-to-use Exquis app simplifies composing entire tracks and its compatibility with a huge range of software and hardware means you can use Exquis however you like. This isn't just an instrument—it's a whole new approach to music making.
Direct Access to Essential Controls
Four 360-degree encoders provide continuous adjustment over volume and effects levels or track panning. Push down on an encoder to toggle parameters or enable momentary functions. The 10 silicone buttons are ideal for triggering samples, loops or switching presets on MIDI-compatible devices. The 6-zone capacitive slider introduces gradual changes to filters, ADSR envelopes or other parameters.
Compose Tracks at the Speed of Inspiration
The Exquis app provides an intuitive environment for song creation that removes technological barriers between you and your creativity. It supports VST, VST3 and AU plugins so you can use your favorite synths and sounds. The app works on both Mac and PC, integrating with your preferred DAW or as a standalone. Whether you want to write melodies, program drums or record loops, the Exquis app keeps you in the flow. Capture ideas quickly, then refine and build on them without interruption.
Connectivity for Total Versatility
Exquis gives you multiple ways to integrate with software and hardware so you can use it however you like. A USB 3.0 port, MIDI in and out and CV/gate jacks provide connectivity for controlling synths, DAWs and more. Because Exquis is a MIDI controller, it works with virtually all music apps and production platforms. Use Exquis to play software instruments, manipulate DAW functions, sequence hardware synths—the possibilities are vast. Regardless of your setup, Exquis delivers an unparalleled level of expression and control.
