Designed for keyboard players and live performers, theNektar GXP49is an 49-note USB MIDI keyboard controller with instant access to performance controls including a real-time repeat engine, powerful Nektarine plug-in patch management, and Nektar DAW integration. Well suited for studio and stage, the slim-line control panel is based on the Impact GX series, enabling advanced DAW integration with extended transport control, track selection, and volume control, as well as options to open and close DAW windows and navigate songs. Additionally, the GXP49’s user interface has 14 assignable illuminated RGB buttons for direct MIDI program and bank selection.

The Key Repeat function adds an innovative real-time tool for creating inspirational rhythms and patterns. Direct control is provided from the controller’s illuminated RGB buttons.
