Edirol PC 50 USB MIDI Masterkeyboard incl. Studio Instruments Product Details

Description

49 premium full-size, velocity-sensitive keys designed to fit perfectly on your desk. The PC-50 offers the best value for music labs and simple home studios. The PC-50 is specifically built to offer you exactly what most people are looking for; a well-built expressive MIDI controller that is easy to setup and easier to use.

Expressive Response through Research and Development

The PC-50 has a new keyboard mechanism built with the latest technology taken from Roland’s 30 years of synth development. The new keyboard mechanism is specifically designed to offer a wide dynamic range with incredible subtlety. The re-designed keys are more rounded for a better response to the players touch, particularly in glissandi. The new key assembly also reduces mechanical noise and eliminates vertical shake in the key stroke.

In order to adapt to every player, the PC-50 includes 4 different velocity curves and 3 different levels of sensitivity allowing the user to find the exact match to their own playing style. The PC-50 can also output “fixed” velocity selectable from 1-127, providing practical input for percussion programming.

No need to make extra room!

The PC-50’s chassis is only slightly larger than the actual controls, saving you valuable space on your desktop. It also offers convenient access to all of the ports from the left side of the device, including; USB, MIDI OUT, Hold Pedal, and Expression Pedal. This allows the PC-50 to sit directly in front of a monitor or laptop computer without wasting desktop space for cable connections.

Solving the Power Problem

The PC-50 can be used with or without a computer. When used with a computer, the PC-50 can draw power and send MIDI over the USB port, allowing you to reduce the clutter of having another device to plug into your power strip. The PC-50 can also draw power from an optional AC Adapter or from 4 AA batteries, allowing you to use the PC-50 anywhere, with or without the computer.
