Description
- KeyStep is a new breed of portable musical tool combining the functionalities of a keyboard controller with a polyphonic step sequencer to control both analog and digital devices.
It’s the touch...
We created a "slim key" keyboard combining portability with full-sized key playability, featuring velocity and aftertouch. The polyphonic step-sequencer includes 8 memories, real-time recording, overdubbing, and transposing. Adjustable gate times, swing settings, an arpeggiator, and chord play mode add creative versatility.
And the possibilities...
KeyStep redefines portable keyboard controllers with USB MIDI, standard MIDI in/out, clock and DIN sync, CV/GATE outputs, and an assignable modulation CV output for mod wheel, velocity, or aftertouch. It’s truly exceptional.
Versatility is key
KeyStep is made to widen the potential of your setup, regardless of what instruments compose it. It is compatible with practically all existing synthesizers, either analog or digital, hardware or software.
And the possibilities...
KeyStep stands out as the best portable keyboard controller with extensive connectivity, including USB MIDI, standard MIDI in/out, clock and DIN sync, CV/GATE outputs, and an assignable modulation CV output. Its versatility goes beyond expectations.
