About Roto-Control
Designed for a fast, intuitive workflow, Roto-Control features three powerful modes: MIX, PLUGIN, and MIDI with Motion Recorder.

In MIX Mode, Roto-Control syncs automatically with Ableton Live and Bitwig Studio, instantly displaying track names and colors pulled live from the session--no need to manually label anything. Track updates happen in real time with zero setup.

In PLUGIN Mode, parameters are learned once and saved locally, making recall instant across any system. One-touch setup and direct label mapping from Ableton Live and Bitwig Studio ensures a seamless experience every time.

With thousands of assignable parameters stored internally, Roto-Control is the only motorized MIDI controller that offers this level of portability, flexibility, and precision.

The Bitwig Studio integration is the result of close collaboration between Melbourne Instruments and Bitwig, responding to strong community demand. Bitwig Studio becomes the second DAW to offer native support for Roto-Control, with more DAW integration currently in development.

Pricing and Availability:
Roto-Control 2.0 firmware update is available now.
