PreSonus is getting into the MIDI controller game, and they have an item in ATOM that will be your new, best production tool. I got to see this in action at NAMM 2019, as well as play around with it. This pad controller could launch PreSonus into a new area of music and control. 

About the PreSonus ATOM 

This is a 16 pad controller that will allow you to make beats, add instrument sounds, trigger sounds, and more. USB cable connected, the ATOM has 20 assignable buttons, and 4 programmable rotary encoders. 

I love these pads not only as a musician, but also a video producer, as I can use them as assignable pads for any program I can use hotkeys. The RGB button can change colors so you can have a visual guide. 

ATOM is for PC and Mac, but there have been unofficial instances where it works with iOS apps. With the Studio One software, you can program your ATOM from the screen as well as the controller. 

PreSonus ATOM is $149 and available now at Amazon

You can also get ATOM at B&H.
