With 61 touch-sensitive keys, the MX61 balances portability and playability. Octave shift, transpose and tune controls provide flexibility for any playing style. The intuitive interface makes navigating sounds and settings a breeze. USB connectivity handles audio and MIDI with a single cable. A USB to Device port lets you save and load data to a flash drive. An aux input allows you to connect a smartphone, tablet or other audio source.
Record and Produce with Your DAW
The MX61 works as a controller for your favorite DAW software like Cubase, Logic Pro, Ableton Live, and more. Transport, mixer, and software instrument controls are accessible right from the MX61's panel. Record MIDI and stereo audio over USB while monitoring with zero latency.
