DAWSound Windows Multi-Touch MIDI Controller is a Windows program that allows you to create unlimited layouts to control your DAW and your hardware and software synthesizers.

Use the WYSIWYG layout editor to create layouts with faders, knobs, buttons, labels and XY Pads. You can change the size and appearance of every controller. You can also set the MIDI channel, Note number, CC number and value range for every controller. You can even have buttons switch to different layouts and also send keyboard commands to other Windows programs. Layouts can be any size that you want. MIDI is also bi-directional.

DAWSound works with a mouse and it supports multi-touch.

Completely Configurable

All the controllers in DAWSound are completely configurable. Colors, sizes, ranges, MIDI data, etc are all user-defined. DAWSound also remembers where each Layout should appear on your screen, so each Layout can appear in specific places, enhancing your workflow. DAWSound works with any program that can receive MIDI. DAWSound can also receive MIDI data and update the controllers. You can even load pictures to use and the Layout background.

MIDI Monitor

DAWSound can show incoming and outgoing MIDI data in real-time, so you can use DAWSound as MIDI monitor.

Fader Controller

Faders can be horizontal or vertical, show or hide values, different knob styles, etc. They can work in reverse and have an auto-return value.

Knob Controller

Knobs can show or hide values, have different rotation angles and have varying amounts of rotation. They can work in reverse and have an auto-return value.

Button Controller

Buttons can send MIDI Note data, CC values or keyboard commands (such as SHIFT-A to any Windows program). Buttons can also be velocity-sensitive - the higher you click on a button the higher the Note velocity or CC value is.

Label Controller

Labels can be horizontal or vertical and various font sizes and colors.

XY Pad Controller

XY-Pads can send any 2 CC values at the same time. The ranges for each CC value is user-definable.
