Nektar Panorama P1 MIDI Keyboard - Black/White

Product Information

Hmmm, not sure why it's not working for you, but I created Nektarine maps originally in Bitwig and they seem to load fine in Logic Pro and Reason. Are you sure you have all the DAW specific files installed from Nektar? Now that you’ve done that, notice the contents of the information bar: The middle section gives the name of the Keyboard Map that is currently active (in this case, 4 Layers). Enable / disable buttons for each zone: When lit red, that zone is active. When not lit, the zone is not active. To continue, once you see the Preset you want in the display, press M4 (Load) again and it will be loaded into Panorama’s memory. On completion, launch Nektarine either standalone or as a plugin in your DAW. Make sure to rescan plugins in your DAW’s Preferences menu so Nektarine is seen. In Windows the install path is: C:\\Program Files\\Steinberg\\VSTPlugins.

Data line: this shows the assignment of and the last transmitted value for the last fader, knob, pad or button you used. Nektarine is designed to enable control of plugins from compatible Nektar hardware complete with parameter and patch browsing. Note: the motorized fader performs its own self-test when power is supplied via the Aux USB port, so it is not included in the Self-test mode. To continue, once you see the Pad Map you want in the display, press M4 (Load) again and it will be loaded into Panorama’s memory.Keep in mind that the definition of a “control surface” itself is hazy. It includes everything from MIDI controllers and mixers to dedicated DAW controllers. As long as it helps you “control” the DAW, we consider it to be a “control surface”. If DP-1 was installed in step 2, import the ‘DP1_Factory_Soundbank.nek’ by following the steps in 5.13 Batch Importing Patches. Note that the Soundbank Multipatch kits can only be viewed/loaded when the pads profile is selected. On Panorama T4/T6, press [Shift]+[Instrument] to toggle the two profiles. If Aura is plugged in at first bootup, Nektarine automatically boots with the pads profile selected following. For Bitwig Studio, Cubase, Nuendo, Logic Pro, Reaper Reason and Studio One users, Panorama is a dream come true. The dedicated communication protocol ties Panorama and your DAW tightly together, so all you have to do is select the mode and menu you want to control. Panorama does the rest.

Like any hardware control surface, the biggest obstacle to getting the best from it comes it two forms: firstly, the initial technical configuration and, secondly, retraining your brain to reach for the controller rather than your mouse. Nektar can’t really help you with the second of these — expect it to take some time and discipline — but they could perhaps make the first step easier. Expression: On or Off: When the expression pedal is active for a certain Zone, an ‘X’ will appear in this box. When an ‘X’ is not present, the expression pedal has been disabled for that Zone. We’ll talk about each feature a Keyboard Map contains, and then walk through how to use them one by one. However, if you press M2 and then press M3, you will notice that the M2 graphic goes ‘dark’ and the M3 button becomes lit, like so: (Image 20) Thanks fella, I managed to get nektarine working last night so i have my two fav instruments running again. Thankfully you can rename instances in bitwig so i know where i am with things.Connect your Nektar device to a USB port on your computer or to a powered USB hub. Unpowered hubs should not be used. Also, the name of the current Keyboard Map will begin to flash. These two things mean you have activated the Keymap selection process. Powering on while pressing the [Toggle/View] and [Mixer] buttons at the same time will put Panorama in the mode where it is ready to receive a firmware update. Down Arrow (M1): pressing this button will select the next parameter down the list. When the highlighted cursor reaches ‘Bank MSB’, the next press takes you to the top of the column on the right and the Pitch Bend On/Off parameter. When it reaches ‘MIDI FX’, the next press ‘wraps around’ to the top of the column on the left and the Channel parameter.

If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered Modulation: On or Off: When the modulation wheel is active for a certain Zone, an ‘X’ will appear in this box. When an ‘X’ is not present, the modulation wheel has been disabled for that Zone.With the MIDImix, AKAI has a compact MIDI controller in its program that masters the essential basics for remote control of a DAW or plug-ins. At this point the task is complete: you’ve layered two split sounds on top of an acoustic piano. The display will look like this: (Image 26) So if you want to rename the Preset or the Maps, that will need to be handled for each item individually before accessing the Save All function.
