All the power of the Future Impact V4

  • CV/Gate output - Simultaneously play a 1V/octave analog synth using the pedal
  • Detented Parameter dial with extended range - More variations on each sound
  • Sturdier knobs - The potentiometer shafts are now made from solid metal
  • Long Release - Audio-triggered sounds now use the full release time of the ADSR
  • Oscillator sync - VCO2 can sync to VCO1 for more harmonically complex sounds
  • Improved audio fidelity - Via an ultra-low-noise CoDec and noise-reduction coding
  • Overwrite programs - On-pedal edits can be saved to patch data before uploading
  • Superior pitch tracking - Greatly reduced latency and increased sensitivity to input instrument dynamics. Pitch detection can now be set to prioritize speed or accuracy
  • Octave transposition - Two new MIDI CCs to transpose the pitch by ±2 octaves
  • 63 new Flexi curves - Create a split point between any two adjacent semitones
  • Robust firmware update process - Now any MIDI interface can be used
  • Alternative quick access to Global Menu - Enter/exit menu without power cycling
  • Better Global Menu layout - Items are repositioned and more meaningfully labelled
  • Fresh Editor look - An updated color scheme with a clearer and more logical layout
  • Onscreen Mod Wheel - Send out MIDI CCs or Aftertouch directly from the Editor
  • midiBeam 4Control integration - MIDI signals from expression pedals and switches are automatically passed to the FI4 when connected to the Editor
