Cre8audio NiftyKEYZ Keyboard and Eurorack Case
Cre8audio NiftyKEYZ Keyboard and Eurorack Case Reviews
Crea8audio have established themselves as a knowledgeable authority and producer of excellently engineered synthesizers and gear, but with enough cheekiness and brevity to step back from the stuffiness that sometimes plagues areas of niche interests. In this particular case, it’s allowed them to deliver a fun, expressive Eurorack-on-the-go synth that we at Sweetwater consider a must-have for any musician who loves Eurorack modules but needs something less rigid. The NiftyKeyz iterates on the company’s previous NiftyBundle, and to great effect. This 49-key synth controller is front-loaded with a robust array of expressive and modular opportunities. 112HP of rack space means you’ve got a sizable space for completely customizable rack-module integration. Four CV + gate outputs can be used to split the keyboard’s range, as well as offering both polyphonic and monophonic modes. Robust expressive opportunities include sustain in, a multi-mode arpeggiator, aftertouch, velocity, mod wheel/LFO, transposition functions, and more. Paint your modular canvas today with Cre8audio’s NiftyKeyz!
Perfect therapy for my Eurorack obsession
I can't say enough great things about the NiftyKeys Eurorack case and keyboard. I started my Eurorack addiction with a Nifty case by Cre8audio and it has skyrocketed. I thought it would be cool to have a stand-alone setup with another Nifty Case filled with favorite modules and a MIDI keyboard. Well, NiftyKeys is the perfect solution. The keyboard has a great feel and provides four outputs for CV and four for Gate. There is nothing cheap, cheesy or chintzy about this keyboard. It is solid.
And.......A shoutout to my favorite Sales Engineer, James Ridings!
NiftyKEYZ
I love the NiftyKEYZ! I wasn't going to even consider getting into Eurorack until I found this; it allowed me to focus on the modules I wanted to buy and easily connect everything with my other gear. I have been working with it for a few months now with no regrets! Definitely one of the best options for your first Modular purchase.
I Like It!
The NiftyKEYZ has been a good way for me to get started with Eurorack. It is a rack and controller combined with several modules already built in, so I could focus on figuring out what oscillators, filters, amps and envelopes I wanted. It also works well as a controller for desktop synths. I ended up with a 4 VCO paraphonic synth with an oscilloscope. I still have a bit of space left in the rack so I can add a couple more modules later.
