WHAT IT IS
ATTACCO is a software that transforms a surface in a controller.
You only need even the cheapest contact microphone, your sound card and your laptop.
The software reacts to the musician's execution, getting information about TIMBRE, SPEED and VELOCITY.
These become MIDI messages to use for everything needed.

NOT JUST MUSIC
ATTACCO turns every object in a control surface, translating the signal into simple messages

Use it to control LIGHTS, VISUALS and more.
