Beatfader

Beatfader by BEATSURFING turns any fader, knob, or MIDI controller into a beat-playing instrument. Load it in your DAW, map your controller, and trigger drum sounds by moving a fader—perfect for live performance, scratching, and quick beat sketching. Each sound has its own gain, pitch, filter, and mute controls, while spread and skew let you reshape how notes are distributed across the fader for unique grooves. Selectable loop lengths let you live-loop your last bars and overwrite them on the fly. Quantization can be adjusted for a tighter or looser feel, and MIDI out lets you build custom kits or add extra sounds. With a generous sound library and the ability to save your own kits, Beatfader suits hobby producers and performers who want hands-on, expressive beat manipulation in FL Studio, Ableton, Logic, or any MIDI-ready setup.
