Novation announced the launch of theirnew controller keyboard, based on the control surface of the Nocturn.
With the addition of 25 and 49 note keyboards, Nocturn’s controller layout has been adapted to a full control solution for DAW users, according to Novation.
The Nocturn Keyboard displays control information on your computer monitor. The Automap software graphically displays Nocturn Keyboard’s control surface, enabling you to assign parameters by simply clicking on them. The controllers themselves also tell you what’s happening: LED rings around the eight encoders show their current settings, while LEDs behind the 25 buttons show if they are on or off.
Nocturn Keyboard has been designed as a musical instrument as well as a control surface. The Fatar 'Fast Touch’ keyboard mechanism, with velocity-sensitivity and aftertouch, is designed to allow for more expressive playing styles, suiting both stage and studio performance. There are separate pitch bend and modulation wheels, as well as eight velocity sensitive drum pads for sketching drum patterns and triggering samples.
Pricing & Availability
The Nocturn 25 will be $249 US MAP, and the The Nocturn 49 will be $299 US MAP. Both have a projected availability of October 2009.
