Your controller isn’t listed? It may still work.

This list only holds controllers people have told me about. MIDI Encoders works with any controller that:

  • Has endless encoders, which keep rotating without a stop.
  • Sends either relative MIDI messages or absolute MIDI values.
  • When it sends absolute values, keeps sending the maximum or minimum value as you keep turning past it. The plugin calls this Absolute mode.
