Starr Labs

Take control of your synths—with a Ztar!

Starr Labs manufactures and sells the best alternative MIDI controllers for guitarists available. Our instruments have glitch-free tracking that enables you to begin with your already developed guitar technique and expand into new territory that is simply not available with pitch-to-MIDI solutions. Playing chords on one 'string', fretboard zones programmed the way you desire, abundant velocity curves and rugged design are just a few of the ways our instruments take you deeper into your synths.

Explore the array of Ztars and keyboards we offer. You'll discover a world of expressive power beneath your fingers.
