General

USB/MIDI keyboards are hotter than ever and there's plenty of choice out there no matter what price you're shopping at. M-Audio's Code Black keyboard controllers are packed full of possibilities and come at an attractive price. They feature full-size velocity-sensitive keys with aftertouch. This M-Audio Code 49 BK is the 49-key model. With it, It's possible to split the keyboard into four assignable MIDI zones to quickly access multiple virtual instruments at the same time.

Features of the M-Audio Code 49 BK USB/MIDI Keyboard

The M-Audio Code 49 BK has virtually everything you need including backlit RGB pads, slider and encoders, transport buttons, pitch and modulation wheels and even an X/Y pad that lets you adjust two parameters in a 2-dimensional context, like surround panning, for example. That is, assuming your plugins and/or synths support such functionality, of course.

Software included

It's likely that you already have DAW software and perhaps a number of virtual instruments, but just in case you don't, the Code 49 BK comes with Ableton Live Lite so that you can started right away. You also get a large collection of sounds in the form of Hybrid 3 and an additive synthesizer called Loom, both by AIR Music Technology.

Wrote the following about M-Audio Code 49 BK USB/MIDI Keyboard
Geweldig midi keyboard, was een enige tijd opzoek naar een midi keyboard naar mijn wensen.

Speel veel melodieën, deze toetsen zijn perfect !!

Veren goed terug en ze zijn gewogen.

De pads gebruik ik om perc loops te maken.

Pads voelen goed aan, ze voelen in iedergeval niet goedkoop aan.



De faders ect zijn een echt een toegevoegde waarde icm Fl studio 12

Ook de play stop ect knoppen helpen me workflow te versnellen.



Installeren ging snel werk overigens met fl studio en Logic pro, alle opties deden het ook binnen enkele minuten!



Ben nog geen nadelen tegen gekomen.





En de service van Bax-shop was zoals gewoonlijk top!!
