The ReMOTE SL MIDI controller is the first keyboard to provide automatic, instant and intelligent control of all major sequencers and all automatable plug-ins. The SL's two giant 144-character screens display up to sixteen assigned parameters at once, with the essential data laid out logically right before the user’s eyes.

Automap Universal software ensures that little or no user setup is required. Sequencer controls are automatically mapped to the SL the moment the sequencer boots up, whilst all VST or AU parameters are intuitively assigned as soon as a plug-in opens. In addition, an instant click and control ‘learn’ function is available for quick custom assigning, providing personalised plug-in control.

In Automap Universal mode, the number of controls is unlimited. In Manual Template mode, the 8 rotary potentiometers, 8 sliders, 8 rotary encoders and 24 switches provide a huge array of different assignable parameters. Eight velocity-sensitive trigger pads are also available, ideal for triggering samples or sketching out beats.

Novation’s pioneering Automap Universal technology, the huge screen and an unrivalled control set ensure that the ReMOTE ZeRO SL is the only choice for the demanding, modern music maker in search of an intuitive MIDI controller with all the answers. With the SL range, artists are free to focus on what matter most – their music.

Automap universal is Novation's unique sequencer and plug-in control protocol, providing automatic control of any automatable plug-in within any sequencer.Automap Universal removes the pain inherent in old school MIDI control, leaving the artist free to enjoy making music. Simply open up a plug-in and watch the parameters appear on the SL's screens. Every plug-in is given a 'learn' mode for easy and instantaneous mapping of controls - simply click the software parameter, then move a hardware control to automatically assign. In addition, open up any major sequencer and the mixer controls, as well as many other session parameters, are instantly mapped to the ReMOTE SL. A single button allows you to switch between controlling different instruments and the mixer, with all names and values displayed clearly across huge 144-character LCD screens.
