25-key Midi Controller - Se25

THE KEYBOARD

These keys are ready for action: The SE25 features our newly developed velocity-sensitive mini-keybed. Despite these keys’ miniscule dimensions, you can play them expressively with a defined and firm feel. What’s more, a choice of three different velocity curves allows you to adjust the keyboard response to your playing style.

UNIQUE "PART TWO" FEATURE

Play in ways not even possible on much larger keyboards: Simply press the dedicated Part “2” button to momentarily shift the octave, add a harmony layer while you play or switch to a different MIDI channel altogether: A fun performance feature! Part Two allows you to toggle back-and-forth between two different keyboard configurations in realtime.

The “2” button is assignable to Octave, MIDI Channel, Transpose, Layer and Latch or a combination of these features.

PERFORMANCE CONTROLS

All you need for dynamic performances: We found a way to shrink the controls for Pitch Bend, Modulation and Sustain 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 even Patch change (requires Nektar DAW integration). And the “S” Sustain button can alternatively be used to control modulation.

NEKTAR DAW INTEGRATION

Control your DAW: Of course, the SE25 is compatible with any MIDI software right out of the box. But Nektar controllers can do more if you install our custom NEKTAR DAW Integration software.

Control DAW transport functions and track selection directly from the SE25 and give your trackpad or mouse a break: Simply press the Play and Rewind buttons simultaneously to enter transport mode and control the DAW from your SE25!

DAW'S SUPPORTED

Nektar DAW Integration for SE25 currently supports: Bitwig, Cubase, Garageband, Logic, Nuendo, Digital Performer, FL Studio, Mixcraft, Reason, Reaper, Sonar and Studio One.
