Expand Your Expressive Possibilities
As the music production landscape continues to evolve, Source Audio’s pedals are at the forefront of new possibilities. With their SA168 MIDI Adapter, you can turn any non-legacy, single-footswtich Source Audio pedal into an instrument in itself. This compact, passively-powered device allows you to connect your chosen device to your pedal via the TRS MIDI control input. The SA168 features a TRRS input and dedicated TRS MIDI outputs to both your pedal and another device, allowing for complex chains of MIDI-based control for your pedal’s parameters. With MIDI PC messages, you can quickly change settings, while the SA168 also accepts CC messages for dynamic, real-time changes via expression pedals or other MIDI devices. Production pros at Sweetwater enjoy the vast possibilities afforded by Source Audio’s Neuro Desktop Editor. Using this, you can dive even deeper into the world of MIDI-based pedal control, allowing you to craft and save presets and pathways tailored to your needs, maximizing your performance.
Note: This adapter is intended for use with single-footswitch, non-legacy Source Audio pedals, including the C4 Synth, Aftershock Bass Distortion, Atlas Compressor, and Spectrum Intelligent Filter. Please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer for a complete list of compatible devices or if you have any questions regarding compatibility.
