Description

Novation Impulse 25 – 25-Key MIDI Controller Keyboard w/ 8 Velocity Sensitive Pads & Automap Support

OVERVIEW

This highly expressive 25-key MIDI keyboard controller hosts a comprehensive array of fully assignable controls and integrates seamlessly with Ableton Live, Apple Logic Pro, Avid Pro Tools, and other major music software.

A true player’s instrument, Impulse 25 features an ultra-responsive keybed with semi-weighted action and aftertouch – its full-size piano-style keys adapting beautifully to virtual organs, synths, and pianos. You also get eight pressure-sensitive, backlit pads that are perfect for playing and recording drums and percussion.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

Novation’s Most Expressive Keyboard:

Specifically designed the Impulse keyboard to let you create truly expressive performances. Ultra-responsive with semi-weighted action and aftertouch, its full-size piano-style keys adapt perfectly to any instrument you want to play, including organs, synths, and pianos.

While you’re playing, Novation’s unique High Rate Scan (HRS) technology will scan the keyboard 10,000 times per second to capture every nuance of your performance.

Connect to Just About Anything:

Impulse is class-compliant and USB bus-powered, so you can simply plug it into a Mac or Windows computer and get started straight away, without the need for a power supply.

Impulse is gig-ready, too; 5-pin MIDI outputs allow you to connect to your favourite synth or module.

Do More with Your Drum Pads:

Play drums in real time with pressure-sensitive pads for rolling beats, looping drum samples, and designing arpeggios. These pads also function as multicoloured clip launchers in Ableton Live, so you can tell whether a clip is loaded (yellow), playing (green), or recording (red).
