Recommended MIDI controllers for GrandVJ

Thanks to GrandVJ's convenient MIDI learn mode, any MIDI controller - or anything that can send a MIDI signal to your computer - can be easily setup and used to trigger visuals, effects and to control parameters. But since we're nice guys, we've already preloaded some mapping templates for the most common MIDI controllers available out there so you don't have to spend time configuring each single fader and knob and you can use GrandVJ with your controller right out of the box.

In the table below you will find those controlers with a link to the manufacturer and to each model. We recommend to use them because they have all been tested with GrandVJ by us or by their manufacturer.

"Template" means that the current GrandVJ version includes a template for this controller (in GrandVJ, menu File > Load Mapping Template)
"Feedback" means that the controller has support for bidirectionnal communication with GrandVJ (i.e. buttons light up when the cell is active etc..)
