Novation Remote 37 SL MIDI Controller

Running along the top of the ReMOTE SL front panel are two 144character screens which can display up to 16 parameter names and values simultaneously. This makes controlling in the dark a thing of the past and does away with Template overlays or having to remember the function of each control. It also makes navigating though menus simple as each page is laid out side by side and edited using the buttons or knobs directly below.

This new intelligent mode is set to revolutionise the way you make music When an Automapsupported application boots up currently Reason 3 Cubase SL/SX 3 Nuendo 3 Logic Pro 7 and Ableton Live 5 with more on their way the SL loads up the Automap Template and all the parameter assignment is done for you showing you everything clearly on the gigantic screens. All you have to do to switch between controlling different instruments or areas of your session is click once with the mouse or press one button on the SL depending on the application. Go to the Automap page here to find out more.

Brand new to Novation controllers are these dynamic trigger pads for sketching out beats or bashing out samples. Each pad can be calibrated any way the user desires with sensitivity and assigned data both fully programmable. For example the pads can be set up as velocitysensitive MIDI notes or buttons assigned to a CC number where the value of that number is defined by the strength the pad is hit.

At the heart of the ReMOTE is a superb action semiweighted keyboard with aftertouch. Unlike many controllers you can play your favourite software synth or sampler with the care and precise control that can make a huge difference to the final performance.

The ergonomically designed front panel is inviting and simple to use. And its all there 8 rotary potentiometers 8 sliders 8 rotary encoders and 24 switches that are entirely programmable. All controls can be named and memorised as a collection with a group template name then saved in any one of the 64 template memories.

The ReMOTE SL may be powered by six Csize alkaline/rechargeable batteries or external mains PSU. When connected to a computer via USB rechargeable batteries are charged without the need of a mains recharger.

Indicative of Novations forward thinking design is the touchpad. Being fully assignable and programmable in both X sidetoside and Y upanddown directions stunning and unique performance effects are just a fingerglide away. Imagine setting a distortion amount and a pan position on the left to right movement and an LFO speed and filter cutoff on the top to bottom movement total expressive and creative control.

Total control over your sequencers transport and locate functions are yours via the dedicated transport and four function button controls. Select a new template scroll through templates send snapshots transmit a panic command etc. this kind of instant flexibility will streamline your working practice.

Now shipped with both Windows and Mac OSX USB MIDI drivers just plug into the USB port install the driver software and the ReMOTE is fully operational. Alternatively if your computer system does not have USB then simply plug into the MIDI ports. The ReMOTE SL provides two MIDI Out ports one MIDI thru port and one MIDI In port. Information originating from the ReMOTE keyboard or its controls can be sent directly to the USB port and/or any of the MIDI out ports. The MIDI ports can be used to integrate the rest of your MIDI gear into your computer system.
