An incredible hardware-based arpeggiator enables you to instantly add arpeggios to software and hardware synths and create complex arrangements on the fly.

MOTOR 49’s endless rotary encoders provide immediate feedback about your software, plus the convenient, backlit transport section puts all playback and record functions right at your fingertips.

MOTOR 49 is the fast and easy way to get you back “in-touch” with every element of your creativity.

An Awesome and Illuminating Experience
The keyboard features 49 expressive, full-sized keys with velocity and aftertouch to deliver a superior feel. You’ll like the weighted feel of the large keys. And after you strike one of the keys, it responds in ways that will please the most seasoned musician. Aftertouch will imbue your sound with variations of pitch, volume, modulation or color – whatever parameters you choose. Whether you have a heavy, or soft playing style, MOTOR 49 always responds to your touch.

Faders that Dance with Your Music
The days of keyboard players setting up a separate MIDI fader controller are finally over – a new day of empowerment and ease-of-use has dawned, thanks to MOTOR 49’s nine motorized 60 mm touch-sensitive faders. Now you get the very same technology found in Behringer's award-winning X32 digital mixing console to give you the ultimate control over your DAW mixer, soft synths or effect units.

Dedicated Drum Pads and Illuminated Rotary Encoders
Much like MOTOR 49’s keyboard, the back-lit drum pads are velocity and pressure sensitive, letting you take your drum performance and sample or loop triggering to the next level. Sequence beats, or fire off your favorite sample or effect and save your keyboard for more expressive play. When switching between plug-ins, MOTOR 49’s rotary encoders automatically, and visually let you know where plug-in parameters are set. The 8 ultra-precise, brightly, illuminated encoders and LED collars provide a clear and instant overview of all software parameters at all times – allowing you to stay in the creative moment.
