At Superbooth 2026, we chatted with Josh Rob and Ed at the Haken Audio booth about their new compact Slim 21 Continuum controller. It samples each finger movement using Hall-Effect sensors with a 14-bit converter, achieving high precision well beyond traditional 8-bit MIDI controllers.
Notably, the Haken Continuum integrates into various music production setups. It offers pitch, pressure-controlled volume, and additional expressive parameters like brightness and timbre, thanks to its spectral set processing. Its versatility extends with octave buttons and a tri-octave pedal enabling wide-range performances.
Priced at $1,799 USD, this music technology tool promises a rich and nuanced expressive potential, enhanced by built-in presets, rounding options for pitch accuracy, and a sustain pedal for dynamic performance nuances. Additional resources will help musicians master it over time. The product is available from all major retailers, with regional pricing considerations in place.
