Product Overview
The NTK-37 showcases 37 full-size semi-weighted keys with synth-action feel that provides responsive tactile feedback for expressive playing. Velocity sensitivity with three selectable touch curves ensures accurate response matching your individual playing style, from delicate pianissimo passages to aggressive fortissimo attacks. Aftertouch support adds an additional dimension of expression, enabling dynamic modulation and filter sweeps through finger pressure after initial key strike.
Integrated transport controls include loop, stop, start, record, rewind, fast forward, read, and write functions that eliminate constant mouse clicking and streamline the production workflow. Nine assignable faders provide immediate hands-on control over mixer levels, automation envelopes, and software parameters. The built-in mouse control pad adds unprecedented convenience, allowing navigation of DAW interfaces and plugin parameters without reaching for a separate mouse.
USB-powered connectivity simplifies setup by eliminating external power supplies—simply connect via USB Type-B and begin creating. Traditional MIDI DIN inputs and outputs ensure compatibility with hardware synthesizers, drum machines, and legacy equipment. Sustain, expression, and auxiliary pedal inputs accommodate diverse performance needs from piano-style sustain control to expressive volume swells. The included Cubase LE software provides a professional DAW for immediate music production out of the box.

Key Features
Integrated Transport Controls for Efficient Workflow
Dedicated transport control module provides essential production functions including loop, stop, start, record, rewind, fast forward, read, and write buttons positioned for intuitive access. These controls streamline arrangement editing, punch recording, and playback management without interrupting creative flow. The nine assignable faders offer immediate tactile control over mixer channels, automation envelopes, and software parameters, eliminating repetitive mouse movements and enabling faster mixing decisions.

Three selectable velocity curves accommodate different playing styles and ensure accurate response from gentle touches to aggressive strikes. Aftertouch support enables continuous expression control through finger pressure, perfect for adding vibrato, filter sweeps, and modulation depth after initial note attack.
Customizable Performance Tools for Enhanced Creativity
The integrated arpeggiator with seven pattern types enables instant creation of rhythmic melodic sequences across electronic, pop, and experimental genres.
