DISC Novation ReMOTE 61LE MIDIController

Full beskrivelse

Unsurpassed MIDI controlling technology is now available in its most compact format to date. With its funky Touchpad and cool 4-way joystick, the lightweight ReMOTE LE is the only choice for the musician on a budget wanting to trigger samples, lay down basslines or control a sequencer with true style. The keyboard also comes complete with a full version of the Novation Bass Station software synthesizer.

The ReMOTE LE is Novation's most compact keyboard to date but still offers a wealth of MIDI controlling capability. Not only does it feature the X/Y Touchpad and combined pitch/mod joystick, which can both be programmed any way the user desires, but also boasts 9 knobs and 9 buttons, with a Group A/B switch effectively doubling that amount. 6 further buttons, labelled for Transport control, are also on offer.

All of the controls have been pre-programmed in 12 onboard Templates for popular software applications and instruments, so that the LE will control plug-ins with style straight out of the box. Many of these Templates have plastic overlays for even simpler parameter identification, but the LE's 32 character LCD screen already makes control display clear and simple. Many more Templates will become available on this website so check the Downloads and Product Updates pages for regular additions.

The quality keyboard comes in three sizes to suit your needs: 25-, 49- and 61-key. Apart from the number of keys, there are no differences between any of the three LE keyboards so it's simply a matter of range preference.

Once purchased, all that's required is to plug the LE in and controlling can start straight away. The unit is class compliant so there's no need to carry out arduous driver installation processes, just plug and play. True music creation with the minimum of fuss!
