From Our Research Team:

Turn your iPad into a Full-blown Workstation!

The Synthstation49 brings synth-controller functionality to your iPad! Following close on the heels of the hugely successful SynthStation25 iPhone/iPod Touch keyboard controller, Akai Professional's back with something new, and they've seriously upped the ante. The SynthStation49 is the first full-featured, pro-style keyboard designed specifically for integration with the Apple iPad. Not only does the SynthStation49 provide your iPad with a 4-octave key set, but it also includes nine MPC-style drum pads, as well as transport controls and more - all designed to integrate with the Akai SynthStation iPhone/iPad app as well as other CoreMIDI apps.

Akai SynthStation49 Keyboard Controller Features:
  • Portable, velocity-sensitive 49 full-size key keyboard with pitch and modulation wheels
  • 9 velocity-sensitive MPC-style drum pads which light when triggered
  • Dedicated transport control buttons including Play, Pause and Record Records
  • MIDI performance from the keyboard and drum pads directly to an iPad
  • Built-in iPad dock charges and is adjustable to position the screen at the perfect angle
  • Compatible with iPad 2
  • USB port for connecting to a Mac or PC, receiving power and controlling MIDI music software
  • Professional 1/4" stereo outputs with volume control to connect mixers, speakers and recording equipment
  • Headphone output to monitor performances and productions
  • Compatible with all CoreMIDI apps

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
