Nektar Impact GX 49 Reviews

Lovely lightweight controller for desktop use

I love having this just above my hands at my studio desk. It's light enough for nimble playing and a nice slim build. I've had excellent customer service from Nektar in the past as well, which is why I went for this as my second controller.

Leuk midikeyboard

Degelijk controller keyboard voor deze prijs. Goed toetsengevoel. Jammer dat er alleen een usb aansluiting is en geen midi out dit had handiger geweest om een synth module rechtstreeks te bespelen ( Old skooli know 🥳 ;-)

Bought this for a music course. Was not expecting much.

But for the price, its actually very nice and compatible with the software I use which is FL Studio. So its a win win

Would recommend if you do not want to go broke but have a very nice product.

Very good keyboard

Very happy with this one! Great keys, nice features, integrates great with Reaper. Lightweight and feels sturdy. So far so good.

Great deal

Highly recommended, it's great product especially for producers and beat makers on the move!

I recommend

My main input for DAW, robust, simple and efficient, good feel. Some difference in distance between keys, only noticeable from detailist persons.

Standalone keyboard

This keyboard was excellent but it can only be used when connected to laptop. It was too advanced for my daughter who just wanted a keyboard to play and create music.

Quality no frills midi keyboard. Perfect for using with an iPad.

This is a quality no frills midi keyboard. If you want a keyboard with loads of functions, this isn't for you. At only GB£77.00 it is a much better quality keyboard than most of the others around this price range.

The keys have a firm solid playable feel to them.

It is perfect to use with an iPad especially if you use an iPad as a midi sound module. it takes it's power from the iPad with very little drain on the iPad battery so it's great for mobile stand alone use.

If you're an iPad music maker, buy a Nektar GX 49.

Simple and perfect

I love this controller, it's simple, has a very lean footprint and feels fantastic to play. well done Nektar.

good news

my first key is quite pleasant, but I think that the return of the keys could be more pleasant

excellant keyboard

easy to set up and slimline a bit on the light sude but dont affect use

Excellent value for money

I wanted a MIDI controller to play virtual instruments, particularly drums. Other products at this price point offer drum pads but fewer keys. I chose the GX 49 because it has a full-size keyboard, allowing me to try my hand playing synths, organs, mellotrons etc. Works flawlessly. Keys feel good. A bargain!

Easy to use

Easy to use in every DAW

Met My Expectations

It's the first midi controller I've ever used so I can't really compare it with others. That being said, it works as advertised (I'm using it with FL Studio and I haven't encountered any problems with its integration). It feels well built and quite sturdy (I'm not planning to carry it around so your results may vary but I expect it to last years in home conditions - hopefully I'm not wrong - I only have it for couple of months so far :) ). I also really like the full size keys and their response - I'm not a piano player but I'd dare to say if you decide to learn playing piano on this controller, you should be able to switch to the real thing later quite easily (just don't forget to buy sustain pedal if that's your intention since it's not included). Overal, I'm happy with the value I got for my money. If you're, like I was, looking for a way to make composing and producing music on a computer much more intuitive and fun than just clicking virtual keyboard on your screen, this keyboard delivers just that, and some more :)

Review

Great Midiboard and love it already

Very good controller

Top quality. Nice features. And it looks preety on the table)

Would highly recommend as the first midi-keyboard

Great Value!

It really does not feel like a semi-weighted keyboard.

For the price, this is a great product especially for producers and beat makers on the move!

Highly recommended. It would fit into any pro studio too.

It was my first MIDI controller. Does the job well for the price, I really loved it.

Best low budget midi controller!

Incredible functions for the price!

May not be weighted but the full keys look great and actually feels better than the usual "synth" keys.

Has basic functions which are very usable and easy to access (unlike some other low budget midi controllers)

Simple yet sleek design.

Small and functional, and that's his huge advantage. Simple operation. Immediate pairing with Garage Band in macbook air but I did not like the keyboard. But for that money enough. Hammer drive is three times more expensive. I recommend something better for piano music. For synetiser style I think it suits.
