Falling comfortably into the 'unique tabletop devices' category, the Double Q is described as a Gestural Neural Processing Device, with a built in camera able to track 30 hand points and send the outputted data over CV. It has record and loop buffers of over 10 minutes, and will be in production / shipping at the end of January 2026. Not 100% sure how I feel about a camera built into music gear, but there have been plenty of cool audio and musical things done with the XBOX Kinect over the years....
More details:
Double q is a stand alone gestural device that uses a small neural processor trained to track 30 points of the hand. Equipped with a high-resolution camera, users can manipulate live hand data in a myriad of ways.
Double q system architecture includes:
X16 Bipolar / unipolar cv outputs.
Mapping and remapping of 30 hand data points.
Phase, speed, and individual sub window / loop array randomisation.
Record and loop buffers of +10mins.
Nrpn and midi cc usb-c output and preset saving / loading. ( perfect for modelq2 / external hardware or DAW pairing. USB host & device )
Web app for nrpn/midi cc slot allocation.
Double q also contributes its own synthesis engine titled double luck.
Double luck is equipped with 6 user buttons and gesture.The user is given zero knowledge or professional guidance on navigating this engine, the user will need double luck.
