Binepad knobX1

CurrentReleased 2025

One big machined-aluminium knob on a USB-C cable, with a push-click and a button that flips between four layers. It runs open QMK/VIAL firmware, so it can be a volume knob, a scroll wheel or a MIDI CC for a filter cutoff, set from a web page with no driver. A cheap way to put one physical control on the thing you tweak most.
