Nektar SE49 MIDI Controller Review & Producing Music

  • The Nektar SE49 is a super affordable MIDI controller, at just $85. This means there is no excuse for you not to start making music: www.audiomentor.com/gear/nekt...
    Skip to 3:40 to see me produce music with the Nektar SE49.
    In this review, I show you what's included with the Nektar SE49, tell you some important features on the MIDI controller and produced a short music arrangement with it.
    Bottomline, I'm OKAY with the touch response, although I could feel it being a little on the affordable side of keyboards. That said, after burning in a few minutes playing on the SE49, I could definitely play quite expressively on the controller.

    Great demo! I'm waiting for mine. Used to have a M-Audio Keystation 49 but the pitch wheel started changing random pitch values inside of the daw, seems common with midi controllers after usage. Not gonna abuse the pitch wheel because of that this time!

      Do you mean the MIDI velocity curve? Yes you can change that. I was using the default velocity curve, and just striked the key harder to program the beats.

    thanks buddy, good for you.
    I bought this keyboard.
    nektar se 49.
    they write "no driver required. plug and play. that's exactly what I
    did. i plugged it. and I got "USB audio device" in my windows device manager. with
    midi components оf course.
    but I cant play.
    my old DAW doesn't "see" that MIDI input device. also its not seen by
    any online synthesizer. although with the old keyboard via mpu-401 it
    all worked perfectly.
    did I throw my money away?

  • @salahibozkurt
    @salahibozkurt Рік тому +1

    I tried the se61 version and keys are not SENSITIVE very much. You cant press 32th or 64th notes easily key structure isnt allow to play fast solo. If you are playing slow things or you need something to press chords prefer this. Material quality is nice and its design is good. controls are very simple. You can use this for a chord-pressing keyboard while playing solo at another midi keyboard... this is my review for Nektar se61 . I tried with logic pro and all well known midi vsts like kontakt, omnisphere, ample sound, toontrack, u-jam etc....

      @@lavatr8322 Hi, i tried this keyboard for 2 months as my main keyboard controller at DAW and i saw that keys are hard keys not enough soft for playing fast solos and sometimes while playing fast delays are happening between notes. I dont like this hard material keyboards. Maybe Nektar Impakt is much better at key quality but SE61 is a very amateur controller i dont advice if you are looking for a longtime instrument to play
