This is a boxed, virtually as new item, which I found surplus to my requirements.

Native Instruments say: The new hardware layout cuts through the clutter to help you stay focused and get your ideas out fast. Instead of being hidden behind a shift-function button, some of the most-used features and functions can now be accessed directly with one touch.

• Pad Input Mode Buttons: Drum rhythms, program patterns, or play melodies and chords, switching easily with the click of a button.
• Lock Button: Take parameter snapshots, tweak settings, and return back to the original settings to discover new transitions.
• Macro Button: Simply touch a knob to assign your favorite parameters to macros and start tweaking.
• Note Repeat Button: Play fills and arps during a performance with a larger, easier-to-find button.
• Updated Transport Section: Transport buttons now include deeper integration with most DAWs and direct access to Follow and Tempo Tap.
• Fixed Velocity Button: Program accents and ghost notes quickly with 16 fixed velocity levels or get a smooth, constant volume when triggering samples.
• Updated File Management: Open a recent project, make changes, and save it as a new file without ever touching the mouse with new Save and Open buttons.
• Expanded Control Section: Quickly jump between views with one-touch access to the Arranger, Mixer, Sound Browser or Sampler.
