MIDI controller Electra One

See and change 36 MIDI controls across multiple synthesizers at once

Modify sound parameters by turning 12 high resolution 360-degree pots or with a touch of your fingertips on the display and get instant visual feedback. Access to 6 pages of parameters gives you an instant control over 216 MIDI parameters.

Electra One not only sends MIDI messages to connected instruments, it also continuously reads their patch settings to give you clear insight into the sound structure and endless possibilities to tweak it.

See Electra in action

Electra One in control of Yamaha DX7. The video demonstrates modifying a patch that Electra downloaded fom TX7 tone generator. Operator frequencies and envelopes are being modified in real time. The sequence is run by Roland TB 3 connected to the USB host port of Electra.

In this video: electra.one in full control of Rhodes Chroma and acting as a USB host for Roland TB3 sequencer and Arturia KeyLab 61. All MIDI messages are fully routed with electra.one. Electra Editor running on computer reflects activity performed on hardware controller and can be used to edit controller presets. All midi data are forwarded to computer with USB MIDI.

Electra One in full control of Studio Electronics Omega 8 and in hands of one of our early testers.

A frequent question is if electra.one MIDI controller will work with soft synths and VSTs. Here is a short demo of using MIDI CC with Absynth 5. Electra is connected to Mac with a USB cable and ESI KeyControl 25 is connected to Electra's USB host port. Three MIDI CCs are used to control Absynth 5's oscillator frequency, filter cutoff and resonance.

Tailored to musicians

No overlays, no motors, not bound to one synthesizer, simply smart

Sound programming

Do you own classic synths that are hard to program? Electra One gives you a great level of control over the sound parameters of your synthesizers and sound modules. The Electra One controller continuously reads your synthesizers parameter settings to reveal the entire patch structure. This brings you a whole new dimension of creativity.

Live performances

Tweaking filter cutoff frequency on many synths with one controller has never been easier. Electra One allows you to create performance presets to control many distinct sound parameters across multiple synthesizers from one place. High resolution 360-degree pots adjust parameter values without any abrupt changes.

All connectivity you need



Electra One is MIDI controller with all connectivity you need. USB device with 2 ports, USB Host port for connecting 2 MIDI USB devices, and 2 standard MIDI IN/OUT ports.

High quality knobs



Touch screens are great, but tweaking sound with quality knobs is a completely different experience. We do not rely on rotary encoders or standard potentiometers. Our 360-degree pots provide outstanding precision.

We even made knobs touch sensitive. Even a light touch gives you visual feedback on the display about what MIDI parameter will be modified when the knob is turned. You will never make a wrong move with our MIDI controller.

Customize Electra One to your needs

Get presets from the community, edit them, create your own, and share them.

Simply select parameters of your synths and drag and drop them into place. Organizing to groups and pages could not be easier.

All your data is stored in Electra One. When you are done, you may disconnect Electra One from the computer and enjoy the computer free workflow.

What are early adopters saying?

"From what I can see one of the strongest points of your controller compared to other known solutions is that you can actually visualise up to 36 values simultaneously!"
"Yeah, it's very luxurious, especially the pots are great, I spin with them even when it's off."
"I love the simplicity and streamlined design of both, the hardware and software. Can't wait for Yamaha DX7 to be fully supported."

About us

We are two guys from the heart of Europe - Czech Republic. We share a passion for high-quality products, both hardware and software. We worked a substantial part of our lives in the software industry and we learned our lessons. Electra One is the first product we created together, that combines hardware, software, a love for music, and a pragmatic approach to engineering.

Martin Pavlas

I have always been obsessed with everything that makes or rather creates sounds. This passion caused hundreds of synthesizers, samplers, and DSPs, to pass through my hands. Electra One is a MIDI controller that I always dreamt about and missed on the market. Now, after many years seeking the right way the dream becomes reality.

Tomas Hellebrand

I have a thing for ergonomy and great user experience. Synthesizers and electronic music were completely unknown to me before joining Martin. And that was a great advantage because it allowed me to tackle the problems in different ways and challenge the design of standard MIDI controllers.

We are looking forward to the moment when you have Electra One connected to your rig and share your experience with us.
