Not that great
BobBusters 22.03.2022
Button pressure is slightly inconsistent, you have to press more on some pads to get a consistent volume. Workflow isn't as good as I hoped for, for something portable.

Double triggering problems, will never be fixed, i had to return it.
Proyal 01.05.2021
If you check on official forums, you will notice that the problem i encountered is common knowledge.

[link removed]

The pads are double triggering, which is a severe design problem, hardware in nature, that will never be fixed by software or firmware update.

More specifically the main part of the controller, the pads, are double triggering or are playing multiple notes during normal usage.

The underlying problem is from the sensors they used (that don't record up and down pressure like on more expensive controllers), the fact that the pads are made from a too hard material and they don't rest on a flat surface, thus triggering multiple notes very easily).

It has been 8 months since the product was launched and they can't fix this problem by firmware / software since it is a physical problem.

It seemed to be such a nice product.
Maybe Atom SQ 2, will have proper pad design and sensors.

Not very useful for Ableton, OK for S1
ReMike 08.11.2022
I tried it with both Studio One and Ableton Live. For S1 it has some nice features (like Arp and Drum Sequencing), though for Ableton it is barely better than any other general midi device. The major problem I found is that rotary encoder functions are not labeled on a screen, so you don't know what a particular encoder does (for S1 you can open a AtomSQ device window and see current mapping, but not in Live). Overall it is a good relatively small controller if you use just Studio One, not very helpful for Ableton or other DAWs.
