M-Audio Hammer 88 Pro MIDI keyboard, 88 keys (HAMMER88PRO)

The M-Audio Hammer 88 Pro is a full-size, 88-key USB MIDI controller with a weighted hammer keyboard. With this ultimate studio and live tool, you channel expressive power and creativity, and bring ideas to life. Bring the authentic piano feel of the Hammer 88 Pro to your arsenal and take your music to a new level.

Searching for sounds and mappings as well as mixing and editing is really easy, thanks to the OLED screen brought to the front in the middle. Hammer 88 Pro works with any DAW and its automatically mapped functions, such as transport buttons, sliders and channel controls, work as such in your software, so you can forget about slow manual linking of functions. It also instantly maps all the virtual instruments of the included softabundle (Velvet, Mini Grand, Hybrid 3, TubeSynth, Electric, Bassline). These world-class Air Music Tech plugins are fully controllable on the Hammer 88 Pro and available in real-time as you create and mix your music.

Smart Chord and Smart Scale technologies make composing and producing even easier: activate Smart Chord and play full chords with one key, or use the smart Smart Scale to lock the keys to the desired scale. The Note Repeat and Arpeggiator functions help both when making productions and on stage. The controller has a top class graded hammer keyboard with Channel Aftertouch function. Channel Aftertouch affects the sound of virtual instruments by constantly scanning how much force you apply to pressing any key after the first touch. Thanks to this, bringing atmosphere, dynamics and sensitivity to your music is natural and fast.
