○ Product overview of IMPACT GXP49
GXP49 is a USB / MIDI keyboard controller developed for "players". Equipped with a newly developed synth-style 49-key full-size keyboard, as well as a foot switch and expression pedal terminal that allow you to make full use of your playing expression. It also features an instantly accessible performance feature, the real-time repeat engine, powerful Nektarine for managing plug-in patches, and of course Nektar DAW integration.

Of course for music production, this USB / MIDI keyboard controller is especially recommended for performers who can "play" the keyboard.

--High-end action keyboard
The core of the GXP49, the synth-style keyboard, offers a newly developed and balanced keyboard action. In addition to velocity support, it also supports after-touch.
In addition, you can choose the most suitable one from 5 types of velocity curves according to your play style, and you can also select 3 types of fixed velocity.

--Direct access
The Nektar DAW integration, which is popular with each Nektar controller, can of course be used with the GXP49. You can control DAW transport, track selection, volume control, DAW window open / close, etc. directly from the controller.
In addition, the GXP49 has 14 buttons with built-in RGB LEDs that can be set freely, allowing direct access to DAW functions.

--Great connectivity
Especially recommended for keyboard players, the GXP49 is also equipped with something that enhances expressiveness in live performances and studio work. For example, a large pitch bend and modulation wheel, and terminals that can connect up to three external pedals.
One is a terminal dedicated to the standard expression pedal. There is also one terminal to which you can connect a foot switch, which can be connected to a standard 2P type switch, and you can use two independent pedals by using a Y cable adapter.
It is also equipped with a MIDI out terminal and an external AC adapter (sold separately), which is convenient when controlling a hardware sound source in an environment that is not connected to USB, for example, on the stage.

--Repeat function
The repeat engine is a very unique feature that creates rhythmic elements. You can quickly access this feature with a dedicated button. You can also directly access each function such as repeat rate, accent, interval, and swing with the RGB button. Easy tempo control with a large encoder, and of course syncs to an external MIDI clock.

--Nektar DAW integration
By installing the Nektar DAW integration, you will be able to control the main functions of your main DAW with the eight buttons and potentiometer knobs on the top right of the main unit. It's much more efficient than controlling your DAW with a mouse.

--Nektarine
By installing the Nektarine software, which is a plugin host and librarian, you can make better use of the plugins you normally use. For example, you can combine multiple virtual instruments to create a patch with zones and layers, and call it up instantly. The GXP49 is equipped with a button that allows you to directly control the Nektarine.
It also has a librarian function, so even if you own many plugins, you can manage them efficiently.
