General

Gain control over your favourite music software with the accurate feel of the QX49. Thanks to a standard USB connection, the QX49 is supplied with power and data is sent to your PC or Mac. It can send data to a software or a hardware device of your choosing. Set a drum beat with the touch-sensitive pads, open a filter with the smooth, rotary buttons or adjust the volume with long faders. The parameter buttons and the touch-sensitive keyboard ensure that you won't need a mouse anymore.

QX49 - live mobility, but still very high functionality
With the 49-key keyboard, the pitch range of the QX49 is perfect for live use. It can also use software instruments and samplers, but despite that it is very mobile. The QX49 offers keyboard players a full range of buttons and knobs, including pitch and modulation wheels. It is also equipped with octave up/down buttons and the possibility to control program changes directly from the keys. The keyboard of the QX49 can even be split up into parts for several simultaneous instruments!

Fully MIDI compatible
The range of assignable buttons on the QX49 are compatible with almost any type of DAW and MIDI hardware. Whether you want to fire off drum samples, want to tweak or mix a software synth, it is all possible! The extensive lay-out of the QX49 provides a touch-sensitive feel and a good response with eight sliders and rotary knobs. The drum pads are illuminated and you are equipped with assigned transport controls.

Wrote the following about Alesis QX49 USB MIDI keyboard (49 keys)
Voelt goedkoop aan, toetsen staan niet evenwijdig en voelen zelfs verschillend.
Onhandig voor aan de midi instellingen te sleutelen, aangezien je geen overzicht hebt via lcd scherm.
Maar wat verwacht je voor deze prijs.
Als je maar kan spelen...

Beste heer de Vries,



Hierbij een antwoord op uw vraag. De Q49 wordt geleverd met een kopie van Ableton Live Lite, en Alesis Edition-software, voor het uitvoeren, opnemen en arrangeren van muziek, Je bent vrij om zelf te kiezen welk software pakket je wilt gebruiken je zult het zelf moeten ondervinden wat voor u de ideale software kan zijn. Zelf gebruik ik Cubase van Steinberg, vind ik persoonlijkl gemakkelijk en overzichtelijk.



Met vr. groet,

Jeffrey Bax-shop

De alesis QX49 USB MIDI keyboard controller is werkelijk een fantastisch product. De aanslag gevoelige toetsen voelen heel natuurlijk aan. Ik heb zelf een lange tijd piano gespeeld en ben onder de indruk van de toetsen. Mijn computer herkende het keyboard meteen en kon er ook meteen mee spelen middels de USB kabel die meegeleverd is. U heeft tevens maar één kabel nodig, de USB kabel zorgt ook voor stroom, wat natuurlijk helemaal fantastisch is. Het mooie van dit keyboard is, is dat het multifunctioneel is, 8 faders, 4 drum pads en 8 draaiknoppen!

Pluspunt:
Gebruikersvriendelijk.
Multifunctioneel.
Voelt goed aan
Waar voor je geld
Weegt niet veel.

Minpunt:
Drumpad heeft een lichte vertraging


Conclusie:
Het is een budget keyboard, maar met ongelooflijk veel opties, voelt stevig aan en doet zeker niet onder voor andere keyboards. Voor beginnende en de meer ervaren gebruikers is dit een heel goed keyboard en is zeker aan te raden.
