To achieve this, M-Audio uses Hammer Action technology which faithfully reproduces the hammer strike on strings and the other real mechanical movements of a piano action, such as the escapement mechanism. The Hammer 88 thus opens the doors of music production to piano touch enthusiasts, offering unlimited sonic possibilities through the use of virtual instrument plugins and the MIDI standard.
Effective controls.
In addition to its 88-note weighted keyboard, the Hammer 88 is equipped with modulation and pitch bend wheels, as well as a volume fader for the main level, which can also be assigned to any MIDI controller number to manage another virtual instrument parameter, for example.
