PTZ MIDI Control
PTZOptics was the first PTZ camera manufacturer to offer MIDI control. Now, we’ve taken MIDI control integration to the next level. Our MIDI firmware update will allow users to operate our SDI and NDI PTZ cameras via MIDI control, no app or additional software needed. Try it now by updating your SDI or NDI camera's firmware here.
How It Works
Users can specify which MIDI commands they want to use to set and call presets, pan, tilt, or zoom. Map the controls you want to the keys you have available on any MIDI device. MPE input is supported, allowing users to adjust camera position along multiple vectors at once.
You're In Control
The possibilities are endless: DJs, producers, and even instrumentalists can control a PTZ camera using anything from a soundboard to a drum kit. Users will now be able to control everything they need for a sophisticated, highly synchronized livestreamed music performance from a single MIDI control device. Without adding any new devices, users can set and call presets and manually adjust camera position.
