This New Controller Uses AI to Instantly Map Your Plugin Parameters

Dialr by Producely is a new hardware controller made for VST3 and AU plugins. Instead of users needing to manually assign plugin controls, Dialr uses AI to automatically map the most important parameters to its 12 physical knobs. This removes the usual setup time and lets you focus on making music.

Once the plugin is selected, Dialr’s software scans it and brings up the key functions on a 7-inch screen. The knobs are instantly mapped to those parameters, so you can begin adjusting things like filters, effects, and EQ without digging through menus. The knobs have different sizes to help your fingers remember their function through touch. This makes it easier to stay in the creative flow. The goal is to make controlling your plugins feel as natural as using a piece of analog gear.

Dialr downloads plugin profiles automatically, meaning you don’t have to worry about updating the device manually. When plugins get updated or new ones are released, Dialr quickly adapts. You get 12 knobs, a responsive 7-inch screen, and a software system that links with plugins instantly. The AI handles the setup behind the scenes so you don’t have to.

Dialr’s main purpose is to simplify how producers and musicians interact with their software instruments and effects. It offers a more hands-on, muscle memory-based approach to sound design and production. With its AI mapping and touchscreen interface, Dialr may feel like a shift in how plugin control works.
