01 / One deliberate control

Less surface. More muscle memory.

TrigOne Mini is not a reduced mixing console. It gives one frequently used parameter a fixed, tactile place for level, send, effect amount, or any other suitable MIDI assignment.

Enclosure
Handcrafted wood construction; visible material and grain differences are part of the product.
Control
Accelerated rotary encoder for fine and fast movement, plus an integrated push switch.
Connection
USB MIDI and HID with configurable assignments. The free Kboard app for Mac manages settings and presets.

02 / Material and identity

Wood makes every unit its own.

The construction shows what it is made from. Grain, color, and small handcrafted differences vary from unit to unit while the form and control idea remain consistent.

03 / Built and legible

A simple object with understandable internals.
