Nektar Panorama P1 MIDI DAW Controller

Nektar Technology Panorama P1 MIDI Controller

The Panorama P1 from Nektar Technology is a state-of-the-art MIDI controller housed in a sleek desktop enclosure designed to enhance your music production experience. It offers deep integration with Reason, Cubase, and Nuendo, and boasts comprehensive MIDI programming options. With a plethora of encoders, faders, buttons, and a foot switch jack, the Panorama P1 provides immediate control over up to sixty-one parameters simultaneously. Store your settings in twenty presets and utilize individually loadable function-key maps to yield over 1,200 unique combinations. This versatile controller is also compatible with virtually any other DAW, ensuring it meets the needs of all music producers.

A high-resolution 3.5″ color TFT display ensures easy navigation through modes and menus, offering detailed information to streamline your workflow. Assigning MIDI commands is straightforward via the Control Edit menu, where controls can be scaled, reversed, and assigned specific or global MIDI channels in real-time. The controller features an expanded eleven-button transport bar, which, when used with the shift button, doubles as function buttons that are assignable to MIDI commands or QWERTY macros. These macros allow for the assignment of up to eight commands to a single button press, significantly improving workflow efficiency.

Cubase, Nuendo, and Reason users will appreciate the dedicated communication protocol that tightly integrates the Panorama P1 with the software. Simply select the desired mode and menu, and the controller handles the rest. Four modes allow for effortless switching between controlling the mixer, instruments, and transport, with an internal mode offering traditional MIDI control. Color coding indicates the current environment, making it easy to switch between different modes without confusion.
