Nektar Technology SE25 Mini MIDI Keyboard Controller

Nektar Technology SE25 Overview

Nektar Technology SE25 Mini MIDI Keyboard Controller Designed for most mobile production setups, the Nektar SE25 is a mini 25-note, velocity-sensitive MIDI controller keyboard, designed to help you make music while on the move. Its slim profile is about as wide as most laptops allowing it to easily slip into your backpack or laptop case.

Size is not a Matter any more

Despite its size, the mini-keys were developed with an advanced keybed allowing you to play them with expression and a defined, firm feel. There is a choice of three velocity curves (default, soft, and hard), which provide even more control overexpression. Six buttons provide access to transpose, pitch bend, and sustain, for dynamic performances. Additionally, the buttons can be assigned to MIDI volume and pan.

track/patch selection and DAW transport controls

With Nektar DAW Integration, the SE25 can provide track/patch selection and DAW transport controls. There is direct support for most major DAWs including Bitwig, Cubase, Garageband, Logic, Nuendo, Digital Performer, Mixcraft, Reason, Reaper, Sonar, and Studio One. The Nektar SE25 is USB bus-powered and ships with a micro-USB cable and a license for Bitwig 8-Track.
