NAMM 2024: Embodme - ERAE II

At NAMM 2024 we met up with Edgar from Embodme who unveiled the prototype of ERAE II. This new controller offers a range of innovative features, with improved sensitivity being the standout improvement. The playing surface is now covered with a fabric that provides a unique touch and enhances the detection of finger movements. For drummers, the skin can be easily changed to a black silicon material more suited for their playing style.

Aside from the enhanced sensitivity, the ERAE II also boasts dedicated button switches, a new LCD, MPE abilities, and an embedded looper allowing for easy looping and offering quantization options, making it perfect for spontaneous play. The controller also offers connectivity options such as multiple CV gates out and two MIDI outs for analog synths. To control and configure the ERA-2, the companion software ERA Lab is available, offering endless possibilities in terms of mapping and customization.

ERAE II Available June 2024. Price: 890 USD
