Nektar Impact LX25+, zwart,

ewrithing its good

La tastiera è di buona fattura, plastiche buone e danno un'impressione di maggiore resistenza rispetto ad altri marchi blasonati. L'ho acquistata per la sua totale e nativa compatibilità con la DAW Bitwig e devo dire che ogni singolo comando funziona perfettamente ed il workflow è migliorato nettamente (ho anche la versione più grande). Molto comodi i comandi play / stop / rec ecc.. , controller rotativi di ottima qualità, un po' meno gli slide, ma comunque ben funzionanti. Consigliata per Bitwig.

Solid piece of gear that connected easily with my Cubase DAW. Layout is well done and buttons and knobs are responsive. The pads are good quality but are not as responsive as I would like. I checked out a few midi controllers in this price range but this is the one I went to in the end. Very good value for the price.

I have two old hardware synths and Reaper. Although my synths are great at making incredible noises, they can also be used as MIDI keyboards. But it's clunky; I can't get a five octave keyboard on the desk (so they're not conveniently sited), and these keyboards can't control the play back or mixers, and they don't have drum pads. Functional, but not ideal. What should I do? I know; why not buy a modern two octave controller?Doing some research, this one seemed like the Reaper community's control keyboard of choice. With manufacturer supplied DAW support, it's excellent. A few quick setup steps gets you where you need to be -- register the device with Nektar, they'll link you to a zip file with an executable and some Reaper-specific doc. Run the executable, follow the simple steps you need to make in Reaper's config, and you're off. Easy -- takes less than ten mins.As for the device itself -- brilliant. USB powered (so no power cables to add your under-desk spaghetti). But with no need for a driver install. Works out of the box. Feels solid, with professional quality resistance on the faders and pots. Nice keyboard for the price; not weighted, but springy rather than flabby. I'm using the default sensitivity curve since I unboxed in and it's good and subtle, but if you want to change the velocity sensitivity, there are five choices of curve. And you can load user or default instrument maps (default drum pads worked straight away with the Manda Audio MT Power Drumkit VST, for example). So no more config required except for advanced tweaks. You can save five user preset maps in the keyboard itself -- but Reaper's "learn" functions and the ability to save unlimited instrument or device maps via Reaper dialogues essentially means you can set up anything with a bit of patience.Nice navigation too -- you quickly learn some easy shortcuts, like changing the octave of the keyboard, or speedily navigating to the mixer. You can control the mixer's volume or pan using the pots for eight tracks, and jump to the next eight using a quick shortcut. You can display a VST instrument GUI and hide it with button combos, and manage the playback.Very configurable, very functional, productive straight away. What an excellent device. I recommend, especially for Reaper users although I've heard good reports for Ableton and Pro Tools users, too. I can't imagine what I would have got for less than £100 that would have been better. Good work Nektar.EDIT: Just updated slightly to correct some atrocious typo's.EDIT, JUNE 2022:I just was talking about controller keyboards to a studio pal and wondered if my review was still here -- and here we are! I would like to report that my Nektar is still working perfectly. I use it nigh on every day.Some of the negative reviews I see near here may be worth commenting on. I can tell some were by people who are new to Music Production or who didn't read the manual. There are three things that I've spotted a few times:- One or two seem to have been broken on arrival. (My response -- that could happen with basically anything in the world. Return it for a refund and order another one. Stuff happens -- why moan about something like that?!)- Some people have reported that they feel like the have to hit the keys hard. What you need to do in this case is change to one of the alternative "velocity curves". Nektar have thought about this and implemented velocity curves to suit different playing styles.- Some people have reported about a delay. Well, yes. There are a variety of things to consider; most professional DAWs (I use Reaper, but there are many others) allow you to manage latency. You might need to adjust the latency in your setup -- it doesn't really mean there's an issue with the Nektar. It's more likely to be your USB connectors, bluntly. Anyway, pro music producers understand this and set up latency compensation accordingly. Also, if you're using a software synth (commonly a VSTi or similar), beware you're not using a patch with a slow attack time. If you don't know what that means then you need to look at some YouTube videos on Synth Theory, not blame the Nektar.As I say, as an experienced producer, I can tell some of the newbie comments. My advice is to beware not to confuse people's inexperience with actual problems with the Nektar.Now, all that said, I wouldn't want to discourage Newbies ever. Music production is an amazing, incredible journey. there is much to learn. The Nektar is a great tool in your armoury, honestly. Good luck.(PS. I promise I don't work for Nektar or anything! Ha ha! I just know £77 well spent when I see it!)

Eine gute Wahl.

Buscaba un teclado pequeño que fuera cómodo y a la vez versátil. Hace sólo unos días que lo tengo pero estoy muy contenta con la compra.
