Nektar SE49 49-Key USB MIDI Keyboard With Btwig Software, Polishing Cloth, Gigbag & Ebook

Nektar SE49 49-Key USB MIDI Keyboard

The Impact SE49 is a USB keyboard controller with a 49-key, full-size keyboard, pitch bend, modulation wheel and foot switch. Octave buttons are available any time to shift the keyboard up or down -3/+4 octaves with multi-colored LED indicators showing the exact status. Transpose buttons allow you to shift the keyboard +/- 12 semitones and an assignable fader provides control over any MIDI parameter. But there is more to the Impact SE49 than meets the eye.

ON THE BUTTON

Transpose is extremely useful but different situations require different functionality. So it’s great to be able to change the MIDI channel or send MIDI Program messages too. The two transpose buttons are quickly configured to any of these functions with setting stored over power cycling. Better still, pressing a key combination change the Octave and Transpose buttons function to send out MMC transport functions so you can activate start, stop and record directly from your keyboard.

INTEGRATION

Nektar DAW integration is carefully crafted to give the best experience with your Nektar hardware. And having to reach for the mouse constantly does not help creativity even if your overall needs are basic. We therefore added some of the most important features to the Impact SE49 including Transpose button assignment for Track or Patch change, volume control for the currently selected track and a special transport mode for Octave and Transpose buttons which allows you to control Play, Stop, Record and Rewind. Impact SE49 ticks all the right boxes.

Impact SE49 keyboards are USB class compliant and therefore don’t require a driver to operate. So installation and connection is easy; just plug the keyboard in to a USB port on your computer.

A 1/4″ input jack allows you to add a foot switch pedal for sustain or sending MIDI messages.
