Alesis VI49 Advanced 49-Key USB MIDI Keyboard Controller

Alesis VI49: Professional Performance and Deep Software Integration

The Alesis VI49 is a powerful, intuitive MIDI keyboard controller designed to give you total command over your digital audio workstation (DAW). With four full octaves of professional-grade keys and an expanded array of pads and encoders, the VI49 allows you to play virtual instruments with incredible expression while managing your entire mix from the hardware. Whether you are composing in a high-end Dubai studio or producing on the go in the UAE, the Alesis VI49 is built to elevate your creative workflow.

Semi-Weighted Keybed with Aftertouch

The VI49 is designed for players who demand more from their controller. The **49 semi-weighted keys** are velocity-sensitive and feature **aftertouch**, a high-end feature that allows you to manipulate sound parameters (like vibrato or filter sweeps) simply by varying pressure after the key is struck. This level of tactile control makes the VI49 feel more like a dedicated instrument than a standard MIDI controller.

Expanded Control Surface for Total DAW Mastery

Stay focused on the music and away from the computer mouse with the VI49’s comprehensive control layout:

• 16 RGB Trigger Pads: These velocity-sensitive pads offer multicolor visual feedback and are perfect for launching clips, finger drumming, or triggering samples with a natural, responsive feel.
• 12 Assignable Knobs: Precisely tweak effect parameters, EQ settings, or virtual synth oscillators with smooth, high-resolution rotary encoders.
• 36 Assignable Buttons: Map these to transport controls (Play, Stop, Record), track arming, or plugin bypass for a streamlined mixing experience.
• Dedicated Pitch and Mod Wheels: Large, rubberized wheels provide smooth and accurate control over expressive pitch bends and modulation depth.

Seamless Connectivity and Premium Build

The Alesis VI49 is built to be the reliable hub of your studio. It is **USB bus-powered**, requiring only a single cable for both power and data connection to your Mac or PC. For hardware enthusiasts, it includes a **5-pin MIDI Out** port to control external sound modules and synthesizers. The rugged industrial chassis is built to withstand the rigors of travel, and the included premium software bundle ensures you have the sounds you need to start producing immediately.
