Impulse 49's eight pressure-sensitive, backlit pads are perfect for playing and recording drum and percussion tracks, with Roll mode making light work of automatic note repeats. Each control can be manually mapped to any DAW or plug-in parameter via MIDI.

Take control of your mix and sculpt your sounds with Impulse 49's endless smooth-action knobs, low-profile 45mm faders, plentiful buttons and LCD screen. Novation's High Rate Scan (HRS) technology 'reads' the keyboard 10,000 times per second, capturing every nuance and detail of your performance to an incredible degree of precision. Ultra-responsive with semi-weighted action and aftertouch, its full-size piano style keys adapt beautifully to virtual organs, synths and pianos. In designing Impulse 49, Novation went all-out to create a supremely expressive performance keyboard. Novation's ultra-responsive, highly expressive 49-key MIDI keyboard hosts a comprehensive array of fully assignable controls, integrates seamlessly with Ableton Live, Apple Logic Pro, Avid Pro Tools and other major music software, and is built to be a true player's instrument. One full licence per account enables you to choose one Addictive Keys instrument, such as Modern Upright, Studio Grand, Electric Grand or Mark One.
