On stage or on the run, producing or performing, wherever your
music takes you, the new K-Series controllers can go there with you.
Keys to any musical door
While the words portable and affordable
describe the K-Series USB-MIDI Studio Controllers, they by no means
define them. Each model features solid, full-size keys, and a ion of
four velocity curves (including a fixed level & great for mimicking
organs and early mono synths) that tailor the keyboard response to
match any performer.
The K61P shares the same great features of the K61 controller, and
also adds 24 essential keyboard sounds, as well as reverb and chorus.
USB or AC powered, it offers full controller functions but also doubles
as a sound source, which can be used away from the computer as well.
Stereo outputs and a headphone jack make the K61P suitable for any
application.
Control Freak
The K-Series are graced with a variety of sophisticated controllers
unusual for an instrument in this class. Performers will be happy to
see a set of Pitch Bend and Modulation wheels, just like in our RADIAS,
MS2000B and microKORG synthesizers.
Is a joystick more your style?
We've got you covered. Our
innovative ClickPoint&trade performs double duty, as either as
an X/Y joystick or as a USB mouse to navigate through your softsynths
or DAW software. This dynamic controller is a 3-axis, spring-loaded,
fingertip joystick-trackball that is difficult to describe, but easy to
use.
Two assignable switches can be set to either momentary or toggle
operation, and both On and Off values can be set, opening up extended
performance possibilities. These switches can even be set as Program
Change up and down buttons. A pair of knobs can be assigned
independently to any controller, and both transmit the full range of
values.
Next to the keyboard you'll also find an assignable slider. And if
you run out of hands operating all these controllers, the K-Series also
includes an assignable foot switch input on the back panel. Even with
all these individual controllers, the stylized K-Series retain a
simple, intuitive and uncluttered presentation.
Onscreen Assignments
Using the free editor software that comes with the K-Series, you
can create and save custom controller assignments in an easy, visual
manner.
This editor software allows you to load the scene that matches your
application into the any of the K-Series controllers, so that you don't
have to reassign the same controllers manually a real time saver! In
addition, a number of pre-programmed template scenes are included, so
you can instantly be up and running with many popular software
synthesizers and music production programs.
The best-selling synth is now free!
Quite a claim, to be sure. But it's true. The new K-Series controllers come with a free M1 Le software synthesize
The M1 was introduced back in 1988 and went on to become the best
selling synthesizer of all time &ndash and defined the
workstation category in the process. This software version perfectly
reproduces the original M1 while taking advantage of the power and
benefits of your computer interface.
The M1 Le contains all of the preset sounds and all of the PCM
waveforms of the original, and a new browser/search function makes it
easy to find that operfect sound. In addition to stand-alone versions
for both Mac and Windows, the M1 Le can be used as an RTAS, VST or
AudioUnits plug-in instrument.
On the go. Or not.
Portability isn't just about size and weight. The K-Series can be
powered directly from the same USB connection that allows it to
communicate with your computer, so you can grab your K-Series
controller and a laptop and make music anywhere. For more permanent
applications, an optional AC adapter is available. In addition to the
power plug and USB port, the rear panel also features a MIDI out port
for controlling synthesizer hardware modules and other MIDI devices.

Author: Maryjane The synth/keyboard action is very very good and the built in sounds are surprisingly good. I guess they had to skimp somewhere to get the price down because the pitch and bend wheel seem pretty cheap. Good thing the built in sounds make up for it, I would give it a B-B+, but I guess I would rather have the nice feeling keys and good built sound, than more substantial sliders and wheels, - worth the money for sure!
