The Artist 37X is designed for those who find two octaves limiting but require a controller that still fits easily on a desktop. Its slim-profile, left-side control layout positions the most-used tools—the encoder, pitch/mod wheels, and octave buttons—within easy reach of a single hand. This allows you to perform with your right hand while simultaneously making adjustments or navigating your DAW with your left, maximizing creative efficiency.
Product Description
Precision Control and Mixing:
A standout feature of the Artist 37X is the backlit LED touch fader. This touch-sensitive ribbon dynamically syncs with your DAW, allowing you to automate volume, filter sweeps, or plugin parameters with tactile precision. Supported by 18 assignable LED buttons and a dual-function rotary encoder with an 11-segment LED ring, it offers a comprehensive physical interface that minimizes the need to look at your computer screen.
Expressive and Customizable Performance:
The 37-key velocity-sensitive keyboard provides a natural, responsive feel suitable for everything from intricate synth leads to rhythmic piano parts. Musicians can use the iMAP software to deeply customize velocity curves, matching the keyboard's physical response to their specific playing style or a particular virtual instrument's requirements.
Robust Engineering and Stability:
Built to endure daily professional use, the controller is housed in a rugged aluminum chassis featuring a Kensington lock port for added security. At its core is an advanced ARM processor, which ensures ultra-low latency and rock-solid stability even when used in complex, high-resource sessions. High-speed USB-C connectivity and class-compliant drivers make it a truly plug-and-play solution for both macOS and Windows.
