Only what you need. Features that exist just because they can get left out.
Designed with intent
Developed under real live conditions.
Reliable
A tool that makes your work easier, not harder.
The story
FrenschConnection was founded by Konrad Frensch: technician, developer, coffee lover, raised in the ’90s and fond of wordplay. Hence the names FrenschConnection and FrenschPress.
After nearly 25 years in hectic live setups with overly complex or unreliable tools, Konrad wanted better equipment, with fewer gimmicks and more reliability. Hardware that feels like a real console, instead of yet another workaround made from a MIDI controller, an app or a keyboard.
There is no startup or business plan behind it, just a personal project. The aim is tools that work without detours, without endless menus and without stress right before the show.
Everything is tested under real conditions: live, under time pressure, by technicians who have no interest in tinkering. It is all developed, programmed, built and shipped in Freiburg im Breisgau.
