Introducing a new range of affordable master keyboards
There’s a new range of affordable USB MIDI controller keyboards on the market with a few features to set them apart from the crowd.
CME’s UF range features robust aluminium cases, eight knobs and nine sliders, transport control buttons, pitch and mod wheels and inputs for sustain and expression pedals and a breath controller.
The 49-note UF5 (pictured above, £169.99), the 61-note UF6 (£229.99) and the 76-note UF7 (£269.99) all feature semi-weighted keys, while the 88-note UF8 (£429.99, pictured below) has a hammer action.
All the keyboards can be powered via USB and also have a single MIDI Out port.
There’s also an optional Firewire expansion board (£149.99) which adds two line inputs and outputs at 24-bit/192kHz, a mic input, S/PDIF I/O, MIDI In, Out and Thru ports and two headphone outs with a single volume control.
