Explore the Artifakt Lo-Fi controls in your browser and connect compatible MIDI hardware to send settings to your pedal. The reference below shows the controls mapped in Nitelite; available functions depend on the pedal and firmware. The default MIDI channel in Nitelite is 1. Browser MIDI control works in Chrome, Edge, Opera, or Brave — no install required.

Knobs

Control	MIDI CC	Description
DESTRUCT	CC 36	Destroys, mangles, or distorts the signal. Function varies per engine: distortion drive, tape saturation, signal dropout frequency, bit quantization, scratch noise, etc.
FILTER	CC 15	Ladder filter center-point frequency (fully closed at max, no filtering at min) or treble tone control depending on engine. In Ladder engine, controls the Moog-style ladder LPF cutoff.
MIX	CC 0	Wet/dry mix of the effect. 0 = full dry, 127 = full wet. In some engines, controls only the time-based signal or the overall combined level.
VARY	CC 53	Variable function per engine: delay time (Tape), reverb decay (uVerb), sample rate reduction (Crush), envelope control (Ladder), compression (Radio), vinyl distortion/randomness (Vinyl), glitch input sensitivity (Glitch).
MOD	CC 56	Modulation parameter controlled by the Rate/Depth/Shape toggle. Adjusts LFO rate, depth, or shape of one of the two onboard LFOs depending on toggle position.

Alt / Secondary Knob Functions

Control	MIDI CC	Description
DESTRUCT TYPE	CC 35	Distortion type: 0=Digital Clip, 1=Overdrive, 2=Asymmetric, 3=Hard Clip, 4=Diode, 5=Smooth Diode, 6=Gated, 7=Octave, 8=Smooth Octave, 9=Fold, 10=Extra Fold, 11=Fold Octave, 12=Diode Octave, 13=Fold Smooth Octave, 14=Gate Diode Octave, 15=Gate Fold Octave
FILTER Q	CC 16	Ladder filter resonance (Q). Higher values create a more resonant, peaky filter sound.
VOLUME	CC 4	Overall output level. 0 = -Inf, 64 = 0dB, 127 = +6dB. Accessible by pressing ALT button while turning MIX knob.

Per-Mode Parameters

Radio

Control	MIDI CC	Description
DROPOUTS	CC 8	Frequency of signal dropouts. Left = clearer signal, Right = poor signal that frequently drops in & out.
COMPRESSION	CC 20	Level of compression applied to the signal. Left = no compression, Right = full compression.
TREBLE	CC 3	Treble level. Noon = flat response. Adjusts high-frequency content.
NOISE	CC 7	Enable/disable signal failure noise (0=Off, 1=On). Toggled via OPTION footswitch.
HUM LEVEL	CC 13	Level of hum/noise generator.

Tape

Control	MIDI CC	Description
SATURATION	CC 62	Tape saturation amount, a combination of compression and light overdrive.
FEEDBACK	CC 54	Delay feedback amount. Controls how many repeats of the tape delay.
TREBLE	CC 3	Treble level. Dial back for true tape warmth. Noon = flat response.
DELAY MIX	CC 51	Delay wet/dry mix. 0 = full dry, 127 = full wet.

uVerb

Control	MIDI CC	Description
DISTORTION	CC 36	Adds distortion to the reverb engine. Left = no distortion, Right = maximum distortion.
DECAY	CC 53	Reverb tail decay time. Left = short reverb, Right = long reverb with massive feedback.
TREBLE	CC 3	Treble level. Noon = flat response.
DIFFUSION	CC 55	Reverb diffusion amount. Controls echo density within the reverb.
SAMPLE RATE	CC 46	Reduces sample rate from High to Low for a truly lo-fi 1980s console effect.

Crush

Control	MIDI CC	Description
BIT CRUSH	CC 42	Bit quantization intensity. Increases in severity from 0 to 9.
SAMPLE RATE	CC 46	Sample rate reduction amount. Left = maximum reduction, Right = maximum sampling rate.
LADDER FREQ	CC 15	Ladder lowpass filter center-point frequency.
CRUSH TYPE	CC 41	Quantizer type: 0=Half Bits, 1=Missing High, 2=Missing Low, 3=Single Bit.

Ladder

Control	MIDI CC	Description
DISTORTION	CC 36	Asymmetric distortion added to the dry signal.
ENVELOPE	CC 81	Envelope control depth for the ladder filter. Beyond noon = positive envelope, below noon = negative, noon = no envelope (static/LFO only).
SELF-MOD	CC 18	Ladder filter self-modulation / self-oscillation amount.
LFO DEPTH	CC 17	Ladder filter LFO modulation depth.

Vinyl

Control	MIDI CC	Description
SCRATCH	CC 9	Vinyl noise enable. Turn right for deeper scratches and a dustier stylus.
WARP	CC 10	Vinyl RPM selector: 0=16RPM, 1=33RPM, 2=45RPM, 3=78RPM. Controls warping and random quality of modulated noise.
TREBLE	CC 3	Treble level. Noon = flat response.
VINYL LEVEL	CC 11	Vinyl effect output level.
