General
Whether you use it to play key parts or to control various virtual instruments, your home studio cannot do without a decent MIDI controller. With the Keystation 61 II, M-Audio offers an affordable yet well-equipped USB MIDI keyboard with 61 velocity-sensitive, full-size keys. Connect it to your PC or Mac with the included USB cable and you can get started right away. A single USB cable provides the Keystation 61 II with power as well as MIDI connectivity. This edition of the MIDI keyboard comes in a stylish anthracite housing and features various new, practical functions.
Intuitive controls of the M-Audio Keystation 61 II
The main focus of the Keystation 61 II is the playing of music parts. As such, it is equipped with velocity-sensitive, full-size keys, which provide a better, more genuine feel than many other MIDI keyboards in the same price range. All essential features are provided, including pitch bend and modulation wheels and octave +/- controls for access to the entire key range. The edition of the Keystation 61 is fitted with transport and navigation buttons as well, which means you can control your DAW from the MIDI keyboard without requiring a computer mouse.
Sustain pedal and software
To offer you a little extra expression, the M-Audio Keystation 61 II is equipped with a 6.3mm input for an optional sustain pedal. The accessory software has also been upgraded: in addition to Ableton Live Lite digital audio workstation, the virtual grand piano Eighty-Eight Ensemble by SONiVOX has also be included. This means you can get straight down to business recording and editing your key parts. An optional Apple Camera Connection Kit (separately available) enables you to connect the M-Audio Keystation 61 USB MIDI keyboard to your iOS devices.
Tips or comments about this product
- Please note: if you want to use the keyboard in combination with an iOS device, a separately available iPad Camera Connection Kit is required.
