Alesis VX49 - MIDI controller - USB - 49-key - aftertouch-sensitive - 8 drum pads

Key Features and Benefits:

• Step up your workflow
  At the heart of the VX49 is a 4.3" full color high-resolution display screen. This screen allows you to directly interface with your DAW and virtual instrument plugins better than ever before. With an unprecedentedly efficient control layout and workflow, the VX49 is the perfect choice for today's most demanding producers and keyboardists.
• Fully integrated with VIP
  Using the included Virtual Instrument Player (VIP) software, the VX49 fuses the creative power of software instruments with the live playability of a keyboard workstation - essentially transforming computer-based plugins into an entirely hands-on production experience. VIP works with any VSTi virtual instrument, including the 7 premium VST plugins by SONiVOX and AIR Music Tech that are also bundled with VX49. The integrated high-resolution full-color 4.3-inch display instantly adapts itself to the selected plugin's controls, delivering immediate 1:1 access to the instrument and many other various editable functions.
• Sort and create new sounds quickly
  VIP gives you access to any virtual instrument in your collection with or without a DAW. An integrated patch browser presents every patch for every VST plugin you have, and enables you to quickly filter, select, and preview patches based on their specific attributes. VIP software also lets you create set lists that provide instant on-demand access to user-curated instruments for stage performance and studio work. You can even layer multiple patches together to create new patches and timbres. All of this - without ever reaching for the computer. That's what you've been waiting for.
