The Z6S is a high performance Guitar MIDI Controller. Control MIDI synthesizers and software synths using the variety control surfaces the Z6S offers. Capture every finger-style or plectrum right-hand guitar technique with (6) touch-sensitive Stainless Steel String Triggers. Or tap the touch-sensitive fingerboard like a keyboard. Completely customize the setup for the fingerboard with multiple zones for different instrument patches. Layer your sounds in unlimited ways. Being truly polyphonic, the Z6S can play multiple notes per-string simultaneously which means you can play piano-style cluster voicings that can not be played on a guitar.

The cutting edge touch-sensing keyed-fingerboard supports 32 separate programmable zones, each with its own channel, voice, transposition, tuning, polyphony, and sensitivity settings. The “strings” have preset as well as user-programmable tunings. Each key on the entire fingerboard may even be tuned independently as well if you want say, a diatonic tuning or are creating Drum Maps ( a really fun thing to do… Percussion on the fingerboard is insane. Having 100 drums at your fingertips is worth trying out!)
The Z6S is equipped with a 4-way programmable joystick. Also programmable volume pot, and Sustain and Volume pedal ports.

The embedded arpeggiator as well as the programmable one-finger chording system may be assigned to separate fingerboard zones, layers and/or frets . This fingerboard system is highly suited to DJ control, loop and clip playback, direct control of Ableton Live or any DAW, and multi-media control.

TCA1 Trigger Cap Assembly:

Adds 6 Velocity/Pressure-sensing programmable Trigger Pads between the Strings and the fingerboard for Triggering Keyboard-style, playing clips, sequences, Drums, pressure-based MIDI control FX, channel-mixes, Lighting controls. Pretty much the MIDI “Kitchen Sink”. Each Pad can be programmed for up to 8 different simultaneous effects.

Mod Wheel:

Add a keyboard-synth-style Mod Wheel and/or PitchWheel. We can add a short stick handle to the PitchWheel if you like.

NeckSensor Strip:

A thin pressure-sensing strip that mounts at the edge of the fingerboard for using with your thumbs. The NeckStrip is so thin that it does not appear in a photograph as other than the edge of the fingerboard itself. It’s great for adding controller effects without taking your hands from the fingerboard. Assign to pitchbends, modulation, crossfades, or whatever else you can think of; completely programmable for up to 8 simultaneous effects.

MIDI wireless and Main Battery supply:

Makes the Ztar completely wireless. Range up to 200′ The transmitter can be installed inside of the instrument on request.
