Thing-1
Professional Edition
Thing-1 "Professional Edition" is our professional-grade
system intended for the rigorous demands of live
performance, session playing, and home studio work. It uses
our highest quality tracking algorithm and has excellent
pitch and expression tracking.
Shown here is
the main Thing-1 performance window with its built-in MIDI
effects for octave, part doubling, and chording. The MIDI
control section enables program change and MIDI sustain.
All of these features can be controlled via a small
wireless right-thumb remote control (sold separately)
attached to your instrument. With remote control you can
operate all of the buttons shown in the effects and control
sections as you play. Control octave up and down, sustain
and release, two-part harmony, program change up and down,
and even chording.
Professional
Edition also offers the ability to create, save, and load
an unlimited number of presets. Included in the preset
performance data are the detailed parameters used by the
MIDI conversion engine, as shown here. These parameters can
be tuned to bring out the particular dynamic response and
playing sensitivity you desire, as well as doing
transposition or channel mapping.

Thing-1
Student Edition
Thing-1
"Student Edition" is a more affordable edition of the
Thing-1 system intended for students, educators, and other
performing musicians who are on a tight budget for gear. It
uses a limited version of our tracking algorithm and will
have a somewhat higher latency in tracking player
performance. Student Edition uses a simplified interface
without the MIDI effects, presets, parameter editing, or
full remote control support. But its high quality MIDI
conversion lets you access all of the same great sounds you
would with the Professional Edition.
Instruments Supported in Student Edition
- Soprano Recorder
