Nektar, 25-Key Midi Controller (SE25)

The SE25 is a compact MIDI keyboard controller about as wide as a laptop and gives you all you need to create music on the move: 25 mini keys (that actually play well), six control buttons and Nektar DAW integration The SE25 is designed to be ultimately mobile and fit in any backpack velocity-sensitive mini-keybed for the SE25 with three different velocity curves allows you to adjust the keyboard response to your playing style Simply press the dedicated “2” button to momentarily shift the octave, add an octave or harmony layer while you play – or switch to a different channel you can toggle back-and-forth between two different keyboard configurations in real time. A fun performance feature! The “2” button is assignable to octave, MIDI channel, transpose, layer and latch or a combination of these features. Pitch bend, modulation and sustain are key functions so we found a way to shrink the controls to size and put them right at your fingertips six buttons to the left of the keyboard are Pre-assigned to octave shift, transpose and sustain. Don’t need transpose? Then assign the transpose buttons to pitch bend, MIDI volume, pan, track* or patch* change instead (*= requires Nektar DAW integration). and the “S” sustain button can alternatively be used to control modulation. Simply press the play and rewind buttons simultaneously to enter transport mode and our custom Nektar DAW integration software lets you control your DAW! Nektar DAW integration for SE25 currently supports Bitwig, Cubase, GarageBand, Logic, Nuendo, digital performer, mix craft, reason, Reaper, sonar and studio One.
