The M-Audio Keystation 49 MK3 is a simple yet powerful USB MIDI controller designed for sequencing music and playing virtual instruments on Mac or PC. Forty-nine natural-feeling, full-size velocity-sensitive keys provide an expressive playing experience for producers and players alike. Fully assignable octave up/down buttons extend your melodic range, ergonomically placed pitch bend and modulation wheels add expression, and transport plus directional controls keep your hands off the mouse while recording. A volume slider gives immediate level control, and a 1/4-inch sustain pedal input accepts an external pedal such as the M-Audio SP2 (sold separately) for authentic piano sustain. Compact, lightweight and durable, Keystation 49 MK3 travels easily between home studio, rehearsal room and live stage. It is USB powered and class compliant with no drivers needed, and supports iOS connectivity via an Apple Camera Adapter (sold separately). Bundled software including MPC Beats, Ableton Live Lite and AIR Music Tech instruments gets Kenyan producers creating straight away.
