The VX8 from CME-Pro is a comprehensive MIDI keyboard controller with 88 fully weighted velocity sensitive keys and global aftertouch. In addition to being a MIDI controller, the keyboard also functions as a two input, two output, USB audio interface. Preprogrammed MIDI songs and accompaniments in different styles, including loop variation and chord changes, can be downloaded and imported into the keyboard, and then triggered using dedicated "pads".
The VX8 supplies sixty-four controllers, including motorized faders, an encoder for data entry, knobs, trigger pads, ribbon controller, buttons, pitch bend and modulation wheels, DAW transport controls, pedal inputs and breath controller input. All controllers are user assignable. The keyboard can be split into up into four zones, and can also be programmed to output over forty alternate and non-western scales. The USB connection allows for future updates and enhancements to be downloaded directly to the keyboard. The unit supports most professional audio/MIDI applications.
