Get The Signals You Want

With m–pod, you can map any input signal to any output pin. You can even combine any number of input signals to a single output pin. No other I/O device offers this capability.

For example, by default all response pad key presses are mapped to a single output line. But an experiment requires that you know precisely which key was pressed and when. You can do that easily with m-pod.

In true Cedrus fashion, there is no need to program. We provide Xidon 2, (pronounced Zydon), a friendly and free app for Mac and Windows. Simply enable checkboxes for the signals that you want.

Thanks to its speedy microprocessor, this translation power adds a minuscule 50μs delay.

Easy to Install and Use

Each m–pod model comes ready to use with the right connector size, gender, and pin assignments.

There are two LED lights on m–pod. The one on the right (🁢) indicates a connection to the response pad. The one on the left (▲) lights up every time an event marker is sent.
