General

The Nektar Impact LX88+ USB/MIDI keyboard is the largest in this series of master keyboards. A common misconception about these keyboards is that they're for pianists only, but nothing could be farther from the truth. This keyboard is ideal for playing other full-range instruments such as organs and harps. Also combined instrument groups like strings, choirs, and drum kits are no problem for the LX88+. When it comes to virtual instruments with lots of key switches, the sliders and rotary knobs on this device offer plenty of ways to operate your plugins. The back-lit velocity-sensitive pads are ideal for drum parts. Nektar DAW Integration ensures you can efficiently combine this DAW-software, zoals Cubase, Reason, FL Studio, Logic en Sonar.

Bitwig 8-Track

As if the keyboard itself wasn't impressive enough, Nektar Impact hve thrown in a great software package as well. Bitwig 8-Track is an entry-level DAW that enables you to get the hang of producing. It has a lot of features and works seamlessly with the LX88+. The transport buttons (like play and stop) at the top of the keyboard make you less dependent on your computer mouse. Invest in the LX88+ USB/MIDI keyboard and you'll be one step closer to producing your own music!

Nektar Impact LX88+ USB/MIDI Keyboard

Wrote the following about Nektar Impact LX88+ USB/MIDI Keyboard
Great keyboard! Very lite weight which is one of the best things about it. Easily transportable. Previously tried out the M-Audio Oxygen 88 keyboard which was great to play but incredibly heavy, so the Nektar was a great solution to this problem. The key action is good but not weighted. I think the keys are slightly smaller than normal piano keys so I'd find that I'd sometimes hit the wrong key by accident. You get used to it, but can be annoying if you flip between piano and this keyboard regularly. The main reason that I want to sell this keyboard soon is because of the velocity difference between the black keys and the white keys. The black keys are often louder than the white keys. Also, when using the sustain pedal, it often makes the notes softer rather than just sustaining the notes. The controls on the keyboard are excellent and are one of the main reasons I bought this keyboard. Great for syncing up to your DAW. Great for studio use. Would pick over M-Audio Keystation.

Topproduct waarmee je echt goed beats kunt combineren in reason. Dat het een piano lengte heeft is geniaal dan kun je de hele lengte van een piano benutten. Dit is gewoon ideaal om te componeren.

Echt tevreden van mijn aankoop van lx88+ keyboard. Veel functies, lage prijs, en dekt het gehele piano toonspectrum. Voelt voldoende goed aan voor mij als beginner. De gratis DAW Bitwig voelde ook meteen goed. Heb ondertussen upgegraded naar de volle versie. Met de juiste plugin maak ik geluid en muziek voor animatiefilms. Was ook goed verzorgd en mooi op tijd geleverd…
Heb alvast een verlanglijst opgesteld bij BAX…

Ik vind het een geweldige midicontroller met een aanslag die (vind ik) toch dicht bij het echte piano-gevoel komt.
Wat ook erg prettig is, is dat deze controller volledig gevoed wordt via USB en er dus geen aparte adapter nodig is om hem van stroom te voorzien.
De meegeleverde software (BitWig studio 9.x met 1 free major upgrade naar 10.x) integreert ook prima.
Ik ben nog niet zover dat ik alle features heb kunnen gebruiken en misschien zijn het er ook gewoon teveel voor mij, maar ik kan nu wel echt zinvolle tijd gaan besteden aan het leren van goed piano spelen

Zeer goed apparaat. Stevig, goed gebouwd en in no time aan de praat. Degelijk. Heel blij met deze aankoop. Toetsen voelen fijn... ergens tussen piano en keyboard. Perfect om op te leren.
DAW integratie is ook perfect. Kwestie van downloaden installeren en het werkt.

geheel nwe ervaring dit keyboard, 1ste x dat ik begin er mee....
88 toetsen, 1mter30 ongeveer, past goed op mijn buro, de toetsen zijn slaggevoelig waardoor het goed realistisch klinkt, het keyboard werkt goed samen met FL studio en het pakket wat erbij geleverd word, Bitwig studio, prima keyboard voor de cursus die ik volg via Udemy.com, kabel erin, ff wachten en er mee gaan werken, top gewoon! aanrader! (ben benieuwd wanneer ik zo goed heb leren spelen, dat ik de overige functies ook kan gebruiken)

Keyboard zit in principe prima in elkaar. De toetsen voelen goed aan en benaderen het "piano gevoel" tot op zekere hoogte. De extra functies zoals de drumpads e.d. werken uitstekend mits je een aangesloten DAW gebruikt zoals Reason. Prima keyboard, zeker als je geinteresseerd bent in extra functies, faders e.d.

Ce clavier est très costaud et bien fourni en fonctionnalités : Multiples réglages de vélocité, 4 banques de programmes pour les pads éclairés, intégration parfaite dans cubase pour commander le DAW depuis le clavier, et toute une série d'autres fonctionnalités classiques dans cette gamme.

Les touches sont agréables à jouer, et correctement alignées.
