ICON iKeyboard X 49-Key USB MIDI Controller Keyboard

The ICON iKeyboard X is a 49-key USB MIDI controller keyboard that combines a full-sized, semi-weighted piano keyboard with a powerful single-channel DAW controller in a rugged metal enclosure. Designed with meticulous attention to detail, this controller features velocity-sensitive keys that deliver a realistic piano action, making it ideal for performers and producers seeking a professional playing experience.

The controller section provides complete hands-on control over your music software. The backlit LED touch fader reacts in real-time with your DAW, automatically synchronising with channel values when switching between channels, allowing intuitive automation of levels and other parameters. Mute, solo, and record buttons, along with track and bank selection, are at your fingertips, while a full transport section covers playback, recording, looping, and automation mode changes. The large rotary encoder with an 11-segment LED ring is perfect for panning, setting send levels, and tweaking plugin parameters.

This keyboard controller includes factory presets for most popular DAWs, including Cubase, Nuendo, Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Ableton Live, Samplitude, and Studio One, using Mackie Control and HUI protocols. Every control can be custom-mapped using the included iMap software, and firmware upgrades can be done via USB connection. The iKeyboard X is class-compliant with Windows 7/8/10 (32-bit/64-bit), Mac OS X (Intel Mac), and iOS, and features USB 2.0 high-speed connectivity.

The robust metal casing includes a Kensington lock port for security, and the included UK mains plug (Type G) ensures easy setup. With its comprehensive feature set and durable construction, the ICON iKeyboard X is a versatile and reliable choice for any music production setup.
