About Roland A-49 MIDI Keyboard Controller
A-49 MIDI Keyboard Controller. There's no shortage of portable MIDI keyboard controllers on the market, but portability in some cases, that means you get subpar keyboard action. M-Audio's engineers wanted to ensure that the A-49 is not one of them. It's a lightweight, slim-line controller which features a premium-grade, full-size keyboard. It's a dream for musicians seeking a simple, easy-to-use MIDI keyboard with pro-quality playing feel.

For the ultimate in portable convenience, the A-49 is powered from your computer's USB bus - no power cable or adapter is required. It draws a minimal amount of current, which is ideal for a USB bus-powered device. Make Music With Your Mac or PC The A-49 provides clean connections via its recessed rear panel, so you can place a computer monitor or laptop in the perfect position for creating music. Two knobs, two switches, and the D-BEAM controller are all easily accessible and intelligently arranged to make your workflow fast and fluid...
