The Nektar Impact GX61 features a pleasantly playable velocity-sensitive keyboard, a pitch wheel, and a modulation wheel, as well as backlit octave and transpose buttons. It also offers additional controls such as an assignable rotary knob and seven programmable MIDI/MMC transport buttons, each of which can have two functions freely assigned using a SHIFT button. This makes the Impact GX keyboards truly impressive and leaves the competition in this price range far behind.

What makes the Impact GX keyboards completely unmatched in this price category is the direct and in-depth integration with all popular DAW software, inherited from the Nektar Panorama series. Supported DAWs include Cubase, Nuendo, Logic, Reason, Bitwig, Studio One, Cakewalk Sonar, Digital Performer, Fruity Loops, Garageband, and Reaper.

With a simple press of a button, you gain direct access to the mixer of the connected DAW, as well as to the integrated instruments and effects, whether they are internal or third-party plugins. Such direct control is not possible with any other USB keyboard in this price category!.
