Octave & Transpose Buttons
In addition to Octave Up/Down & Transpose functions, the Nektar Impact LX+ Series’ 4 hidden buttons have another very special function: they can be assigned to other MIDI Controller messages, like Program Change or Channel Pressure, for example.
They also send Note On messages whenever you press a key; pressing and holding a button sends continuous Note Ons until you release it. These assignments are easily done using MIDI Learn on screen in the Impact LX+ Editor Software. This is just one of many ways in which the Impact LX+ really does offer more than meets the eye…
Control Centre
The Nektar Impact LX+ MIDI keyboard controller’s centerpiece is the ultra-stable USB/MIDI control surface, which is the command center for MIDI instruments, software, and hardware. 9 MIDI buttons and 8 encoders are at the center of Impact LX+’s control panel, fully programmable to send any MIDI CC or note message.
The Nine 30mm faders provide much greater control than standard 15mm travel units often found on controllers in this price range. Impact LX+ also has five presets available for even more creative possibilities; optimized presets to support certain DAWs are provided for Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase, and Ableton.

The 8 velocity-sensitive pads can be assigned any MIDI note number or CC message for use as MIDI triggers or toggles.
