KORG MKEYAIR49 49-Key Bluetooth and USB MIDI Controller

The microKEY-49 AIR made by Korg is a professionally designed slim MIDI controller that comes along with a pitch wheel, a modulation wheel, and a set of 49 velocity-sensitive Natural Touch mini-keys. If you wish, you are possible to bus-power this unit with the use of the USB port, but the microKEY Air also comes featuring Bluetooth capabilities, this gives you the capability of connecting wirelessly to Mac and iOS devices. Hooked up in such a fashion, the keyboard is capable to last up to 30 hours on two AA batteries (alkaline are recommended).

An assignable switch jack is giving you the capability to plug in a sustain pedal, and the two octave-shift buttons are giving you the capability to change the range of this three-octave unit at the same time. You are capable to make edits to MIDI parameters with the use of the Korg KONTROL Editor software, which is available for free download on the Korg website. This is possible to be useful in customizing the microKEY Air to your specific sensibilities, such as adapting the instrument's velocity curve to your individual touch.

The controller also comes including five virtual instruments (AAS Ultra Analog Session, Korg Legacy Collection, AAS Strum Session, UVI Digital Synsations, and AAS Lounge Lizard Session), as well as two apps (Korg Module Le for iPhone and KORG Module Le for iPad). Finally, purchasing the Korg microKEY Air will allow you to download a limited version of Propellerhead's Reason.
