Exacting, Intuitive DAW Control

The Novation Impulse 25 USB MIDI controller gives you everything you need to control your DAW with expression and precision. At the heart of the Impulse 25 is its highly responsive semi-weighted keyboard with assignable aftertouch. You get full DAW/plug-in control via 1 fader, 8 rotarys, 8 backlit performance pads, transport controls, and an LCD screen to keep you status-savvy. The Impulse 25 also ships with a tidy collection of cool software and sounds. If you have DAW control issues, check out the Novation Impulse 25.





Novation Impulse 25 USB MIDI Controller at a Glance:
  • First-class keyboard
  • Iron-fisted, velvet-gloved control
  • Works with all major DAWS

First-class keyboard
The Novation Impulse 25's semi-weighted keybed is first-class. Designed to feel like an instrument rather than a computer accessory, these keys communicate musical expression to your DAW with an efficacy you never thought possible. That's always been the challenge with MIDI and computer-based music creation - and the Impulse 25 attacks it head-on. The result is better music.

Iron-fisted, velvet-gloved control
In addition to the superb keyboard, the Novation Impulse 25's multi-function, backlit drum pads let you roll beats, warp arpeggios, launch clips in Ableton Live, and curb the potential for mayhem that lurks beneath the surface of every complex DAW setup. And with immediate access to your DAW's transport, mixer and plug-ins, you'll enjoy increased productivity and focus, resulting in, again, better music.

Works with all major DAWS
The Novation Impulse 25 has been designed and tested to work with all major DAWs and plug-in instruments and effects, including Ableton (Ableton Live Lite comes included with Impulse), Cubase, Logic, ProTools, Reason/Record, Sonar (PC only), FL Studio, Studio One, and Garage Band. Automap 4 control software is the magic that gives you immediate hands-on access to your DAW and plug-ins. In addition, you get Impulse 25 access to your 3rd party plug-in instruments and effects, such as Native Instruments, Waves or FXpansion. In Live, you can even control Scene Launch and Clip Launch using Impulse's back-lit drum pads. The Novation Impulse 25 is one serious controller.

Novation Impulse 25 USB MIDI Controller Features:
  • Ultra-responsive semi-weighted keyboard with aftertouch
  • Automap 4 control software enables instant hands-on access to your DAW and plug-ins
  • Comprehansive DAW/plug-in control surface
  • 1 fader, 8 rotarys, 8 backlit performance pads, and transport controls
  • Custom LCD screen always keep you status-savvy
  • Multi-function drum pads let you warp arpeggios, roll beats and launch clips in Ableton Live
  • Ships with Ableton Live Lite, Novation Bass Station, Loopmasters sample library, and Mike The Drummer

If you want absolute DAW control, the Novation Impulse 25 is an excellent choice!

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer knows all his products. I can call and ask him anything and he's on top of it. Some other places just want to sell you something, but I've found Sweetwater to be a helpful, professional company to work with.
