Digit Music CMPSR MIDI music controller

Introducing the Digit Music CMPSR MIDI music controller

The CMPSR is a revolutionary music controller that makes playing an instrument fun, accessible and promotes musical development in disabled children and adults. It’s designed to allow non-specialist teachers to deliver inclusive, easy-to-follow music activities and lessons. It’s suitable for all children, making it a complete music-making solution for the whole classroom.

It features a robust, joystick-controlled, gaming-style design which makes playing music easy and intriguing for a wide variety of players. It’s also made with user-friendly video gaming hardware and played with simple finger gestures, so no previous musical experience is needed. The CMPSR music controller gives everyone the opportunity to create their own sound.

Developed through extensive work in education and inclusion, CMPSR and Arrownotes are engaging and immediately rewarding so anyone can play, compose and perform literally in minutes, regardless of their levels of prior music experience. Perfect for digital inclusion programmes and supporting the government’s National Plan for Music Education.

CMPSR x Arrownotes

Arrownotes is an alternative to traditional notation, as it lets you play first, then look into the musical principles later, so you can focus on the fun stuff and play your own way. An inclusive digital music education system, fully adaptable for students and teachers of all experience levels. This system supports digital skills, learning, attainment and well-being.

Make music wherever you go

The CMPSR is portable, compact and wireless. Easy to transport between classrooms, to performances or music therapy sessions, and move it around the room without any hassle. It connects to MIDI music software on phones, tablets, laptops, desktops, and MIDI hardware. It’s also battery powered, using a rechargeable lithium ion battery, which gives you more than 10 hours of continuous play.

To make travelling with your CMPSR even easier and safer, get the optional Digit Music Perform Pack and bring your music with you wherever you go.

Play the sound of any instrument

With its always-in-key feature, built-in chord and scale engines, you can play the sound of any instrument! Simply use the joystick and music pads for a unique composition and access to endless sound possibilities.

Provides a multi-sensory experience

The CMPSR is built to engage students who are traditionally difficult to reach and who are often excluded from music education. It’s an excellent choice for schools looking to offer an inclusive curriculum.

Unique to the CMPSR is its use of colour, shape and direction. If you can follow and match, then you can play and perform. Children can progress through 3 levels and compose their own music in minutes, regardless of their ability.

Promotes teamwork building skills

Group music making is fun and important for developing skills such as listening, socialising, coordination, teamwork, and more. Plus, making music in a group also helps you get even better as a musician. That’s why multiple CMPSR controllers can be used alongside each other, and alongside plenty of other musical instruments as well.
