Assign and remember up to 33 controls with ease using this controller's Automap software.
Overview
The Novation Nocturn 25 Keyboard is an intelligent plug-in/sequencer controller. It has a high quality 'Fatar' keyboard, with 8 drum pads and a total of 33 assignable controls, which allow you to get hands-on control of your plug-in instruments, effects and sequencer.
Most keyboard controllers have two big problems: The idea of being able to control software parameters with knobs and buttons sounds great. However, the hassle of assigning them, and remembering what they are assigned to becomes so tedious that you always end up turning back to your mouse.
Nocturn 25 Keyboard's Automap control software solves both these problems. To assign controllers, simply click on the parameter, touch a knob or button, and it is assigned! It also enables you to keep track of what is assigned to what - instead of using a small monochrome LCD screen, Nocturn 25 Keyboard displays control information where you really need it: on your computer monitor. The Automap software graphically displays Nocturn 25's control surface. The controllers themselves also tell you what is going on: LED rings around the 8 encoders show their current settings, and LED's behind the buttons tell you if they are on or off.
High quality professional keyboard
Velocity-sensitive, keyboard from Fatar, with assignable after-touch. The Nocturn 25 Keyboard feels like playing an instrument rather than a computer peripheral.
Illuminated controls provide instant visual feedback
Brightly lit 11 segment LED rings around the eight… read more smooth encoders, and backlit buttons throughout provide instant visual feedback for every physical control.
Touch-sensitive encoders
All 8 oversized encoders are touch sensitive, bringing up mapping information and allowing you to touch in automation data on DAWs with a touch mode.
Automap control Software
Allows you to instantly 'learn' controllers to plug-ins. The GUI graphically displays Nocturn 25 Keyboard's control surface on your computer monitor, enabling you to see exactly what is assigned to what, without using a tiny LCD screen.

Speed Dial
