Expressive Keyboard with Full-on DAW Control!

The VX70 is a powerful and flexible 76-key controller and audio interface that's loaded with top-notch features. Not only do you get excellent DAW control via its motorized faders, but its built-in USB audio interface also gives you a plug-and-play solution for recording. Beyond that, a solid, all-aluminum chassis makes the VX70 extremely durable, and its 76 semi-weighted keys make it great for playing both virtual pianos and synths. And, with its brand-new, ultra-stable version 2.0 firmware, you'll find a tremendous creative partner in the CME VX70.

CME VX70 76-key MIDI Controller and USB Interface at a Glance:

• Built-in USB audio and MIDI interface with 9 motorized faders
  
• Touch-sensitive keys and MIDI controls
  
• New Version 2.0 Firmware for stability

Built-in USB audio and MIDI interface with 9 motorized faders
Not content to be just another MIDI controller, the VX70 sports two microphone/line 1/4" inputs and nine motorized 60mm faders. This enables the VX70 to function as a the centerpiece of a music creation workspace, handling all of your MIDI and audio needs — from composing to recording to producing. Plus, an onboard multifunction expansion slot lets you expand your VX70 the way you want — options include a sound module with sample function, an analog synthesizer module, a FireWire audio interface module, and a digital mixing console module.

Touch-sensitive keys and MIDI controls
The VX70 uses CME's semi-weighted keyboard with initial and after touch, and it's velocity sensitive. The VX70 supplies and abundance of controllers of different types, including motorized faders, encoders for data entry, knobs, trigger pads, ribbon controller, buttons, pitch bend, modulation wheel, transport buttons, jacks for pedals, and a breath controller input. All of these controls are programmable. Yet, the built-in U-CTRL maps them out naturally, so you can just plug it in, load up your DAW, and get started.

New Version 2.0 Firmware for stability
The CME VX70 features CME's brand-new firmware release. The firmware adds stability, while also opening up the doors to even more control of your instrument. To name just a few improvements, you can now store parameters more easily, enjoy improved U-CTRL functionality, and more fluidly adjust the MIDI route.
