The CME-Pro XKey 25-Key USB MIDI Music Keyboard is a portable USB bus-powered plug-and-play music keyboard for connecting to your Mac, PC, iOS, or Android device. The keyboard features 25 full-size keys in a traditional layout within a slim molded aluminum frame. Each key is connected to a velocity sensitive pressure sensor that can transmit 128 levels of programmable MIDI data with polyphonic aftertouch control. This allows for more expressive and realistic playing techniques. The side of the keyboard includes a row of buttons for pitch-bending notes up to 16,000 steps, a touch sensitive button that emulates a modulation wheel, sustain controls, and controls for shifting the keyboard up or down in one octave increments. Using the Xkey Plus iPad application from the Apple App store, you can customize the controller by programming MIDI assignments to the keys and setting up to four user-defined velocity curves. Once configured, these settings can be saved to non-volatile memory within the keyboard and retained for future use.
