Monogram is a Canadian company based in Kitchener, Ontario that designs modular control surfaces for creative professionals, including music producers. Founded in 2013 by Calvin Chu and Ashish Bidadi, the company originally launched as Palette (also known as Palette Gear) via a Kickstarter campaign out of the University of Waterloo before rebranding to Monogram in 2019 alongside the launch of its second-generation hardware, the Creative Console.
The Creative Console is a freeform, magnetically connected system built around a Core module that links to interchangeable blocks: the Dial (rotary encoders), Slider (linear faders), Orbiter (a pressure-sensitive disc controller), and Essential Keys (mechanical switches). Users arrange the modules in any configuration and map them to software parameters, with profiles for digital audio workstations as well as photo editing, video editing, color grading, and virtual production tools.
While the product line is not aimed exclusively at musicians, Monogram markets MIDI-capable configurations for DAW control, positioning the Creative Console as a tactile alternative to mouse-and-keyboard workflows in audio production.
Monogram has 6 products cataloged on Equipboard, including MIDI Keyboard Controllers and DAW Controllers.
