Dedicated transpose buttons allow you to shift the keyboard range up to +/- 12 semi tones. The buttons can quickly be repurposed to change the Global MIDI Channel or send Program messages. An assignable potentiometer that by default controls mixer volume provides control over any MIDI parameter. Nektar DAW Integration for many of the most commonly used DAWs makes it easy to get started and a pleasure to use. With Impact GX61 your controller keyboard is part of your system, giving you the creative freedom to compose, perform and play, without having to reach for your mouse constantly. The Transport 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. The MIDI Control and Setup Functions Impact GX is a MIDI controller as well as a DAW controller. If you use MIDI software that's not supported by Nektar DAW Integration, a host of options are available for you to set up MIDI control yourself. Each of the 14 assignable MIDI buttons, the modulation wheel, footswitch and of course the big control knob, can be assigned to send out MIDI cc messages. The assignable buttons (14) can in addition be configured to send out Program message or MMC transport control. MMC (MIDI Machine Control) is often supported by DAWs that don't allow for advanced integration, so with this option Impact GX covers all the bases. The Setup menu also enables Program messages, Bank LSB/MSB to be sent out on the fly as well as settings for selecting one of the four velocity curves, setting the Global MIDI Channel and assigning the transpose buttons. The Connectivity As a low-powered USB device, Impact GX works with all USB devices that feature a Class compliant MIDI driver. That includes all versions of Windows from XP and higher, Apple OS X 10.5 and higher, plus Linux (as long as a USB MIDI driver package is installed). And if you are often on the move you can easily hook your Impact GX keyboard to an Apple iPad using the iPad’s optional USB camera connection kit (optional). Of course the Impact GX is powered by the iPad, so you can work away for as long as your iPad remains charged.
