About this listing
Next Generation Beat Controller for Your DAW and HardwareThe Nektar Aruba pad controller and sequencer is a comprehensive master controller for your DAW and your MIDI rig. At its core is the included Nektarine 2.0 software, which gives Aruba complete control over your VST, VST3, and AU plug-in collection — you can control up to 16 different instrument plug-ins simultaneously via its ultra-sensitive pads. DAW integration is built right in — just press the "DAW" button for full control over Ableton Live, Logic, Reaper, Studio One, and other popular options. You can even customize Aruba to be whatever type of USB or MIDI controller you need it to be, with 16 user presets to store your pad and control assignments. If you've been searching for a capable controller to bring your software and hardware together in the familiar form of a 16-pad drum machine, Nektar Aruba is your solution.Nektarine software lets you work with your plug-ins like hardwareIn a world of multi-purpose USB MIDI controllers, what sets the Nektar Aruba pad controller and sequencer apart? Most notably, the Nektarine 2.0 software that gives you an entirely new way to interact with your plug-in collection. Nektarine can host up to 16 of your virtual instrument plug-ins, with four effects plug-in slots for each — you also have additional slots for send effects. And using Nektarine's mixer page, you can customize volume, panning, and mute/solo for each plug-in.In addition to plug-in control, Nektarine makes it easy to browse through thousands of patches to find the sounds you need fast. And because Nektarine can run in any DAW that hosts AAX, AU, VST, or VST3 plug-ins, it basically allows you to create your own custom virtual instrument and effects rack, and then access that within your DAW of choice. Outside of your DAW, you can run Nektarine as a standalone application, putting all of your custom sounds at your fingertips without having to reference a DAW project.Built-in integration with the most popular DAW softwareTaking control over your DAW software with the Nektar Aruba couldn't be simpler — just press the dedicated "DAW" button and you're ready to select tracks, control the transport, enable recording, and so on.
