Nektar SE49 Reviews

Impressive

I'd recommend this for anyone looking to buy a MIDI keyboard on a budget!

You get 49, full-sized, velocity sensitive keys + octave shift AND transpose function buttons, greatly priced, you're getting more than what you're paying for.

The best I've tried for the price

I was reluctant to get this keys, as cheap keys tend to be rather bad and not have a good weight. I'm not saying this one is perfect, but for the price is the best I've seen.

Very good.

Very nice controller, the keys feel good. Does whats intended.

Perfect in it's price range.

Good build quality and easy plug & play. However, the response of keys could be better.

Everything I wanted!

A little lacking in the touch sensitivity... but only a little. And to be fair, my skills are lacking too!!! Great keyboard. I love it.

Amazing Controller

Nektar never disapointed me since the Panorama P6 that i still own... Really amazing gear for the price...Congratulations Nektar....

I would like to have expression keys for the price but we can't have everything for such low price...:)

Best MIDI Keyboard on a budget

I'm writing this review after 3 weeks of using in my bedroom studio. Great build quality. Keys are not weighted but velocity sensitive, works perfectly. Modulation and Pitch Bend knobs work smoothly. Transposing option is available. With all this the price tag is a bargain, totally recommended.

From the moment of purchase, the customer service as been wonderful. Shipment arrived from Germany to my address in Saudi Arabia in 3 weeks despite the prevailing conditions. The package was safely packed, very pleased on their shipping service.

Their customer service team is very friendly and professional with their communication when I inquired about the shipping status.

The keyboard looks the same as the images shown and it looks lovely. I checked every single key and all of them are equally calibrated. Both the knobs designated for pitch bend and modulation works perfectly. I bought a separate sustain pedal (I/O type) and it supports perfectly. (You should plug it in before turning the keyboard on, otherwise will work inversly).

You have to register with the given serial number to download the drive for the keyboard depending on your operating system. You get additional plugins which is a bonus.

Pros ; Great Value for money

Cons ; Velocity adjustment was not found.

Recommended ? YES !

Good Price

For that prace i think is awesome purchase. Thank you TH

not bad :)

it has a lot of delay but the quality, features are great.

Nice budget keyboard

Great quality for its price. Would really recommend it. One thing though is the software. It's just a an 8-Track software compared to other budget keyboards like M-Audio that has a lot of support. That's the only con though. Great product!

Nice Keyboard

Keys feel good, worked straight away with my DAW, good price.
