Introduction

The Midiplus AKM322 Tracktion Edition MIDI Key board offers an impressive range of functions that go far beyond the standard of compact MIDI keyboards. As the direct successor to the popular AKM320, this model is equipped with additional operating elements, extended control options and improved haptics.

The specially developed Tracktion Edition is aimed at musicians who expect more than just simple MIDI input. With an integrated arpeggiator, chord mode, various velocity curves and dedicated transport buttons, the AKM322 offers complete creative control in an ultra-compact package that takes up very little desk space.

Manufacturer

Midiplus is an established name in the world of MIDI controllers and digital musical instruments. The brand stands for excellent value for money, functional design and user-friendly products that are tailored to the needs of modern musicians. By continuously developing its product lines, Midiplus succeeds in delivering powerful devices in a compact form - as is the case with the AKM322, which was designed in collaboration with Tracktion especially for demanding users.

Midiplus takes a hands-on approach: devices like the AKM322 should be ready to use, intuitive to operate and yet flexible enough to fit seamlessly into any digital production environment. The Tracktion Edition underlines this claim and offers additional creative tools that are rarely found in this device class.

Technical details

The Midiplus AKM322 Tracktion Edition MIDI keyboard is equipped with 32 velocity-sensitive mini-keys, which enable precise and expressive playing despite its compact size. Compared to the previous version, the thickness of the housing has been slightly increased to ensure an improved playing feel. In addition to pitch bend and modulation wheels, the keyboard also offers a range of other control elements that enable creative real-time control.

These include three infinitely rotatable data knobs and a dedicated volume knob, which can be used to flexibly control parameters in the DAW or with VST instruments. The transport buttons (Play, Stop, Record) allow direct control of playback in your music software - ideal for producers who want to work efficiently. Transpose, arpeggiator control, velocity settings and even a scale mode can be called up using the composite function buttons.

The integrated arpeggiator expands the creative possibilities enormously: rhythmically complex patterns can be created with different clock rates and timing options. The chord mode allows you to play chords with just one key - an enormous help when composing and for live performances. Various velocity curves ensure that the playing behavior can be individually adapted.

Power is conveniently supplied via USB - no external power source or driver installation required. The AKM322 is automatically recognized by Windows (XP to 10) and macOS. A sustain pedal can be connected via the 6.3 mm jack input (not included), which further increases the expressive potential of the keyboard.

With a weight of just 0.76 kg and its extremely compact dimensions, the AKM322 is the perfect tool for mobile applications. Whether in the home studio, when traveling or as an additional device on stage - this keyboard offers impressive versatility in the smallest of spaces.
