Gesture-based MIDI Controller
Transform your hand gestures into expressive MIDI control. Using your Mac's built-in camera, external cameras, or even multiple cameras simultaneously, it tracks your hand movements in real-time with advanced computer vision.
As a standard MIDI controller, AirBending works seamlessly with any digital audio workstation (DAW) including Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Cubase, and more. Connect to external hardware synthesizers, software instruments, and effects processors. No special drivers or plugins required—just standard MIDI communication that every music production setup understands.
AirBending offers a sophisticated preset system that allows you to customize every aspect of your gesture-to-music mapping. Configure it to use either one hand or both hands for controlling X/Y axis movements, giving you complete flexibility in your musical expression.
Use multiple cameras simultaneously to track both hands independently with different settings and MIDI mappings. Perfect for complex performances where each hand controls different instruments or parameters.
Assign specific MIDI channels for output, allowing you to control multiple hardware or software instruments at once. Perfect for complex studio setups and live performances.
When using AirBending for pitch control, you can lock your gestures to specific musical scales and keys, or even create your own custom scale. This ensures every note you play is perfectly in tune with your composition.
Map hand movements to any Control Change (CC) number for precise, expressive control over parameters like filters, effects, volume, and modulation on your favorite synths.
