USB and MIDI Controllers

Every hardware device in a recording studio, from effects processors to synthesisers, samplers and drum machines, are now most often found in software form. The age of ‘in-the-box’ music production is well and truly upon us. With every effect and sound generator now software on a screen, the lack of ‘hands-on’ control can make the process of music creation less than intuitive Thankfully, there is now a huge range of USB and MIDI controllers designed for the purpose of controlling software. For inputting notes, and controlling software instruments, there are innumerable USB controller keyboards of all sizes and to suit all budgets. For creating drum patterns, controllers equipped with velocity sensitive pads provide the ideal interface. Alternatively, to add physical controls to software synthesisers and effects, there is a range of controllers with assignable faders and knobs. At Dawsons, we hold a wide range of USB and MIDI controllers of all types, from brands such as Novation, Roland, Akai, Alesis and more.
