OVERVIEW

61-key MIDI keyboard controller.

Start creating and performing music with your Mac or PC easy with the the Keystation 61 MK3 from M-Audio. Whether you’re a seasoned pro looking for just the right controls or are looking to get started with the right USB MIDI controller, the Keystation 61 MK3 is a simple, powerful MIDI controller designed for sequencing music and playing virtual instruments on your Mac or PC. Keystation 61 MK3 features 61 semi-weighted full-size velocity-sensitive keys and comprehensive controls that expand the range of playable notes, expressive capabilities and enhance your recording workflow.

Musical Control
With Keystation 61 MK3, maximizing your creativity while minimizing the complication is easy: Use the fully assignable octave range buttons; pitch-bend and modulation wheels; volume slider, and transport and directional controls to play, perform and record with your music software without using a mouse or trackpad. Keystation 61 MK3 also features a 5-pin MIDI output for connecting to your favorite hardware synth and a 1/4” (6.3 mm) sustain pedal input that lets you use an external control pedal, such as the M-Audio SP2 (sold separately), for genuine piano sustain.
