Nektar Impact GX61 is a 5 octave keyboard controller that will be a smart addition for your desktop, regardless of what DAW software you use. The multi-coloured octave buttons will let you shift the keyboard range up (+4 octaves) or down (-3 octaves) with the LED colours showing the exact status. Dedicated transpose buttons allow you to shift the keyboard range up to +/- 12 semi tones. The buttons can quickly be re-purposed to change the Global MIDI Channel or send Program messages. Eight buttons intended for DAW control, are at the center of the Impact GX61. Essential tasks like transport activation or navigating tracks are highly repetitive and reaching for the mouse every time, can kill inspiration. Used with Nektar DAW integration, the 8 buttons extend functionality to include control over transport and a host of other important DAW functions, right from Impact GX.
The buttons can also be assigned to MIDI messages for use with any MIDI software that's not supported by Nektar DAW Integration. A primary and a secondary message can be programmed for each of 7 buttons, delivering 14 programmable options total.
