Knobster — bare-board USB MIDI controller, eight knobs and four buttons

You can't see sound.

That's why every Signal Path instrument has things you can feel. Real potentiometers, not encoders. Real switches. Eight knobs that always remember exactly where they were when you let go.

There are thousands of nerve endings in each of your fingertips. We connect those to your ears.

What we make.

Where this started.

We build audio hardware one batch at a time in Kaohsiung — real parts, small runs, made by the same people who design the boards and write the firmware. The conviction underneath it: the best way to shape sound is with your hands, on something you can feel.

Why we're doing this.

There are thousands of nerve endings in each fingertip, and most music gear ignores every one — encoders, menus, screens behind glass. Every Signal Path instrument puts something physical under your hands and wires it straight to your ears.
