The 150 dollar price point makes it intriguing to me and with the update to impact xt it makes a lot of sense....presonus knows what they are doing

[ScottCurts]

Awesome!! Just pe-ordered on Sweetwater. I just had to do a full clean install on my production computer from Win7 to Win10 and now my MAudio Trigger Finger is obsolete. This release is perfect for what I need. And the price point is excellent too for it's functional value. Well done. Look forward to getting mine. Thanks guys!

About Much appreciated Presonus. # 1 in my book. Salute.

Presonus fan here, so I like the announcement. But I can't help but wonder - is there a reason to buy this controller over an Akai or Novation one other than SO integration?

[boniface]

I love everything about you presonus, I get to know them by incident when I bought audiobox USB 96 from a dealer and I got sd 1 artist, now my music production has been fun

Can you pan, swing and control the volume of sounds from the Atom controller?

[corvuscorax]

I hope that there are also banks for knobs and not only pads

[BlakeHeart]

I’m interested in hearing more.. What’s the availability date, can’t find it anywhere but it’s available for preorder many places!

[AnsolasDe]

Will the keys keep lit when a loop is playing?

[starttofinishpodcasting]

Can I program sound effects (ie clapping, scream, suspense sound effect) from my hard drive into the keypads on the Presonus Atom so that I can use them for my podcast?

[seltrixbl]

I got it too today. Can I like download music like faded so that I can pay if on the pads?

[KCinSD]

I like the small form factor. I'm on a small desk and this would fit perfectly.

[zzyzx]

Is the LED feedback done by note velocity being sent to the controller?

[dblackinf]

All we need now is for an update that allows us to use the encoders to “chop” samples. Basically have the ability to control the start and end points of a sample inside impact and sample one. Thanks!

Not USB Type-C, where are we living? in 2008?

[maurourrai]

Can you assign different midi notes to the pads?

[gregg_msk]

I would grab one If it had DIN midi out... It is hardware era again!

[davislewislove]

I like this, and will buy it as soon as it's available, but I can’t wait for that 128 pad controller, 16 by 8 grid, with the screen to chop samples, pitch bend and modulation strips, knobs to trim and zoom in and out, play chords, scales, and step sequencing, with the pads, as well as control vsts, and the mixer, with transport controls, that is talked about on your ANSWERS PAGE, on the PRESONUS website under the heading “ Atom Controller For Studio One “. That’s what I’m waiting for. That controller will work great with Studio One, FL Studio, Logic, Cubase, and Ableton. Presonus would have the go to controller for all DAWS.

[davislewislove]

Presonus, I need some demo videos of this controller, showing everything that it’s capable of doing .

[shadowmixx]

Okay, so I get another email sent to me today announcing the ATOM. Yet various stores are still telling me that they don''t have it and are out of stock. I'm just curious as to what is going on.
-Also, I have read a few comments here by people 'pre-judging' and dissing the ATOM and they don't even own it. So I definitely don't want to be THAT guy, However, I would like to see more in depth videos on by people other than Katfyr and my dude Donald from MVP Loops..
So if anyone else has it, PLEASE show it off and enlighten us a little more. I for one would appreciate it.
Peace
