Palette Gear has announced new modular hardware controllers while rebranding to become Monogram. Cited as 40% slimmer compared to the original Palette, Monogram's new and re-engineered modules offer compact yet versatile control and backward compatibility with first-generation modules using the new Monogram core hub.
Among the additions is Orbiter, a new, 3D input device optimized for color grading. According to the press release, Orbiter includes a new "dual tilt/press mechanism: tilt for expressive and confident control in X/Y directions, or press down as a large pressure-sensitive plate in [the] Z direction."
Additional details on the latest Monogram hardware are available on Kickstarter. With a goal of $51,401, the campaign was fully backed within two hours of launch.
I’ve been using their current product for years now. It’s not for everyone but it works great for me. I immediately backed this Kickstarter and I can’t wait to try the new system out!
Was hoping they'd address the one thing that's kept me from investing in it - a return to zero slider.
