(Click for a close-up)

New at the Winter NAMM show was StudioLogic's VMK-88 (Virtual Music Controller) MIDI keyboard controller.

The VMK-88 features semi-weighted action with aftertouch, and fully programmable knobs, buttons, sliders and pedals, as well as an LCD display, pitch wheel, and a data entry wheel. Lighter, at only 14-pounds, and smaller than any of its 88-note predecessor sister keyboard controllers, the VMK-88's small foot print is perfect for even the most cramped project studio, yet still features FATAR's semi-weighted, mechanical keyboard action.

Additional operational features include 8 x 2 programmable knobs, 8 x 2 programmable buttons, 9 x 3 programmable sliders, 4 programmable pedal inputs, and sequencer controls. The VMK-88 also includes a sustain pedal, an AC adapter, and a MIDI-to-USB converter. The US suggested list price of the VMK-88 is $799.95.
