Your Aux Switch Is Now A MIDI Controller

Need a triple aux switch? They're a dime a dozen and a race to the bottom. Aero is something different. Sure, it works as a regular passive aux switch, but we've added some of that sweet MIDI magic!

Introducing Aero - It's Quiet!

Aero is a MIDI controller you can take anywhere and use for anything. Aux switch, MIDI interface, MIDI controller, expression pedal input, looping pedal/app companion... It's everything. 

It also features our brand new SuperSilent footswitches. You thought soft-touch momentary switches were quiet? These will blow your mind. 

Powered by our ever-improving BridgeOS, Aero absolutely blows other compact controllers out of the water. In fact, in some ways it blows our flagship BRIDGE controllers out of the water (but don't tell anyone! 🤫)

Here's some really great application ideas for Aero:

• Load a preset for your pedal from our pre-made templates, connect your pedals, and get going with NO MIDI SETUP!
• Control a non-MIDI pedal with an aux switch jack at the same time as sending MIDI commands to your MIDI pedals
• Control YouTube playback with keyboard shortcuts sent by Aero over USB
• Blast through your live set sending stacks of PC and CC messages with a single switch press
• Control your Live Looping platform of choice - software or hardware - with our unique colour-coded sequential messages feature to step through recording, playing, pausing, and overdubbing.
• Throw it in your backpack as a compact USB MIDI interface
• Go Crazy and give your expression pedal the ability to control up to 48 different CC messages (one at a time) across your pedalboard!
• Bradshaw your rig and run multiple Aeros across the front of your pedalboard so you never have to touch another bypass switch on your back-row pedals!

Unbelievable Features

Most small controllers are simple. Limited. Expendable. 

Not Aero. 

Aero has the power of BridgeOS built in, which means you get all of the intuitive editing experience in our app - including pre-built templates - which makes it a breeze to dive into MIDI for the first time with just a couple of clicks.

But it's not just for beginners. BridgeOS is also packed with powerful and flexible features that suit the performance needs of the most complex pedalboards. Aero includes our praised sequential mode, scrolling mode, two MIDI clocks, LFOs, and all the power of our Smart Messages and USB keystroke messages!

And even though Aero doesn't have a screen, you can keep track of your settings with in-editor switch labels and preset names that are transferred to and from the device so you never forget the details of your setup.
