Add Hands-free Control to Any Software!
Browse digital documents, flip through virtual sheet music, and even control your DAW's transport all with hands-free convenience, thanks to the incredibly handy PageFlip Firefly. This Bluetooth equipped dual-pedal device lets you send simple keystrokes and mouse-clicks to your Mac or Windows computer, iOS device, or Android tablet, rendering it almost universally compatible with anything from Avid Scorch and GigBook to Ableton Live or Studio One. Five preset modes cover most music display apps and software, and an editor on Windows lets you create your own, using both built-in pedals and two expansion pedal inputs. And since it's USB or AA battery powered, you can take your PageFlip Firefly with you anywhere!
PageFlip Firefly Bluetooth Page Turner at a Glance:- Hands-free page turning for virtually any computer software or mobile app
- Customizable controls and expansion jacks give you a ton of configuration options
- Bluetooth or USB operation accommodates any performance environment
Part of what makes the PageFlip Firefly such a brilliantly useful gadget is it's sheer simplicity. Rather than employ some proprietary communications method, the Firefly sends universally recognizable keyboard commands and mouse clicks to your computer or mobile device, making it compatible with nearly any sheet music or lyric book applications out there. Setup is extremely simple, and this small and rugged double pedal is totally silent, letting you flip through pages in your software, without drawing attention to itself.
Customizable controls and expansion jacks give you a ton of configuration optionsLike the Cicada that came before it, the Firefly includes a couple of external pedal inputs that let you go beyond the basic preset modes this remote pedal controller comes with. But one of the things that the musicians here at Sweetwater particularly like about the Firefly is how you can totally reprogram it, via a free Windows application. With four total pedals at your feet and five presets to configure, you can use your PageFlip Firefly to control anything from simple sheet music page turns on your iPad to hands-free transport control for your studio DAW.
Bluetooth or USB operation accommodates any performance environmentWhether you're onstage or in the studio, the PageFlip Firefly will make your life easier. Onstage, the Firefly's Bluetooth wireless connectivity will easily interface with your iPad or Android, saving you the hassle of tucking a cable out of the way. It can also run on everyday AA batteries, and its 30-minute shutoff timer can both save your batteries and spare you the embarrassment of shutting down prematurely. In the studio, a single USB cable can provide your Firefly with both connectivity and power, or you can connect a USB power supply to save you the cable run while saving batteries as well.
