With its upgraded keybed, real pitch and mod wheels and vibrant full-color display, this controller supports hands-on music creation anywhere inspiration strikes. The eight velocity- and pressure-sensitive RGB MPC pads respond to finger drumming and sample triggers with nuanced feedback. Navigation is fast thanks to assignable knobs and an expanded transport section mapped to DAW controls.

For beatmakers who want expressive tools and seamless integration, this keyboard controller balances portability with deep creative features. It also comes in a white or black finish.
The third-generation keybed features 25 velocity-sensitive keys that register touch dynamics accurately. Built with improved spring tension and a smooth travel, this keybed responds to soft melodies and percussive stabs with natural feel. Players can shift octaves using dedicated buttons, covering a full 10-octave range on a compact footprint. The tactile response supports expressive playing, making it easier to record realistic piano, synth or bass lines that translate emotion in the studio.
Eight velocity-sensitive MPC pads deliver precise control for beats and sample triggering. Each pad lights up with RGB feedback and supports pressure sensitivity for dynamic performance. The enhanced arpeggiator comes with Pattern, Freeze and Mutate functions to inspire rhythmic experimentation. Scale and Chord modes help lock in key signatures and build harmonies with a single touch, streamlining songwriting and live performance. These features help users create detailed, layered grooves without menu diving.
A full-color screen provides real-time visual feedback for quick navigation and editing. Eight assignable 360-degree knobs support hands-on sound shaping, while the expanded transport section keeps workflow uninterrupted. USB-C connectivity delivers fast setup and universal compatibility, and the full-size MIDI output links to external gear without adapters. DAW scripts for Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase and FL Studio offer instant mapping, letting producers control preset parameters straight from the controller. This setup speeds up production and keeps creative ideas flowing.
