The GXP88 from Nektar allows you to express yourself, down to the touch. The semi-weighted 88-note keybed features velocity and aftertouch, meaning it captures every nuance of your playing. From the subtle touches to massive chords, the GXP88 translates your playing style with exceptional detail. In addition to the keybed, the GXP88 features both pitch bend and modulation wheels, as well as an expression pedal socket. Also included is a 1/4-inch TRS jack, providing a connection for up to two footswitch pedals.
What sets the GXP88 apart from conventional MIDI keyboard is the vast array of onboard controls. The streamlined control panel allows you to get in-depth when it comes to integrating the GXP88 with your favourite DAW. The onboard transport controls allow you to quickly and easily navigate your music software without having to switch between mouse and keyboard. It also features track selection and volume control, as well as providing the ability to open and close DAW windows.
As well as the transport controls, the keyboard feature 14 assignable illuminated RGB buttons. This allows you to interact directly with MIDI programs and a wide range of in-DAW parameters. They also double up to be used with the new Key Repeat engine allowing for direct control for the RGB buttons.
The innovative Key Repeat engine provides inspiration for new rhythmic ideas and elements. Using the Key Repeat engine, you can select and control Repeat Rates, Accent, Interval, Swing and change routing options for aftertouch and velocity. When the engine is activated, the second encoder is transformed into a dedicated tempo control (unless synced to an external MIDI clock) for maximum versatility.

Using the custom software you can utilise instant patch recall, as well as direct patch control from each of the RGB patch buttons. You can even define keyboard zones, layers and splits from all of your loaded plugins. From here you can then save your plugin settings, as well as the combination of plugins into a multi-patch file. This allows you to recall the various VST combos a the touch of a button.
The streamlined and sleek design is compact yet robust, featuring a wide range of onboard connections for maximum flexibility. The rear of the keyboard features a 5-in MIDI output jack as well as an external power supply socket. The power supply socket is useful on stage or when there isn’t a USB port available for powering the keyboard.
