Description

Musicians, producers, and DJs looking for a small, ultraportable MIDI keyboard controller will be pleased with the Nektar Impact GX Mini, a 25-note mini-key keyboard with velocity and DAW integration.

The updated keybed offers expressive performance with a defined and firm feel. Additionally, the keyboard response can be adjusted to your playing style thanks to three available velocity curves. The combination pitch bend and modulation joystick can be reprogrammed to any CC message allowing you to control whatever parameters you need.

The Impact GX Mini features eight dedicated buttons, putting essential DAW functions right at your fingertips. Control transport, track navigation and loads of other features with Nektar DAW Integration. All buttons are MIDI assignable for use with any software that’s not directly supported.

A notable feature is the included Part 2, which allows you to shift the octave up or down, transpose, layer another octave on top, or switch to another MIDI channel in real-time while playing. What’s more, once you release the Part 2 button, the Impact GX Mini reverts to its original settings. A great performance feature. The GX Mini also includes a 3.5mm footswitch input for a sustain pedal. A 3.5mm male to 1/4″ female adapter is included, allowing to you connect most standard footswitches without issue. The Impact GX Mini also includes a micro-USB cable and Bitwig 8-Track.
