Four Switches — Endless Control
AirTurn’s BT500S-4 Bluetooth foot controller leverages an eloquent 4-switch design that conceals a compendium of connectivity options, wrapped in a stompbox-inspired aesthetic that makes for easy integration into your pedalboard. Operating across a 200-foot range, this AirTurn controller is compatible with Bluetooth 4 and 5, making for faster, more-robust connections. Between Bluetooth and MIDI modes, there are seemingly an endless number of apps and communication options — turning pages, teleprompting, reading music, scrolling lyrics/tabs, triggering backing tracks and effects, sending MIDI commands and custom DAW keys, cueing audio and lighting, and much more. Plus, this controller includes seven onboard modes for storing switch commands that are compatible with hundreds of apps, alongside any supported with AirDirect. Not only can commands be created for almost any app, Auto-Repeat, Idle Time, Low Power, Fast Response, and Debounce modes — along with Momentary, Latching, Pulse, and Command switch-types — open up even more combinations and possibilities.
