NovationImpulse 49 MIDI Controller

Novation Impulse 49

The Novation Impulse 49 is a 49-note USB-MIDI controller with assignable aftertouch. The controller was designed specifically for performance and features a straightforward interface that renders it more akin to a traditional instrument than most standard MIDI controllers. 

In terms of front panel controls, the Impulse 49 features eight rotary controls, eight velocity-sensitive drum pads, nine sliders, both pitch and modulation wheels, assignable buttons, and a built-in arpeggiator. All of these features make the synthesizer an ideal means of manipulating DAWs, plugins, and virtual instruments. It also ships with automap software that enables instant configuration with any of the previously mentioned components.
