Description

The compact design is comfortable in front of a computer and delivers powerful functionality not even found on more comprehensive controllers. When inspiration strikes, Impact GX 49 deliver the control needed to capture ideas while they are fresh. Compact. Powerful. Control.

The Impact GX49 dynamic and expressive instrument, tailored to composition & performance with your computer music system. They are compatible with any music software for Windows and Mac OS and their no-fuss interface is a great entry into the world of Nektar controllers.

They feature a 49-note (4 octave) keyboard, pitch-bend wheel, modulation wheel and foot switch socket. Two multi-colored octave buttons enable shifting the keyboard range up or down -3/+4 octaves with the LED colors changing to show the exact status. So the Impact GX range is well equipped to deliver a great workflow.

Shift the keyboard range up to +/- 12 semi tones from the dedicated transpose buttons. These buttons can quickly be re-purposed to change the Global MIDI Channel or send Program messages. Additionally, an assignable potentiometer provides control over any MIDI parameter. By default it adjusts mixer volume.

Nektar DAW Integration for most popular DAWs makes it easy to get going, and a pleasure to use. With Impact GX, your controller becomes the heart of your system, giving you the creative freedom to compose, perform and play, without having to reach for your mouse all the time.
