About

ClariMate

Read full description

The ClariMate is a reversible hybrid instrument manufactured in the UK and designed in partnership with Buffet Crampon and Audio Inventions LTD that allows you to use your clarinet for silent practice and digital music creation. It uses an array of sensors in combination with our patented note recognition technology to translate reed, breath, and fingerings into digital signals. Connect your wired headphones to the ClariMate to play silently with a virtual, sample-based clarinet synthesizer, or connect it to a computer, tablet, or phone to use it as a MIDI controller and unlock the possibilities of digital music creation. This app functions as a control panel and MIDI interface for the ClariMate.
