M-Audio Hammer 88 Pro: Advanced 88-Key Graded Hammer-Action MIDI Controller with Smart Controls, Auto-Mapping for Major DAWs & M-Audio Software Suite

The M-Audio Hammer 88 Pro is a top-tier, 88-key USB MIDI keyboard controller optimized for music production and live performances. Designed based on user feedback and equipped with an OLED screen for effortless navigation, this instrument stands out for its graded hammer action, customizable controls, and deep integration with major digital audio workstations (DAWs). Whether you’re crafting electronic, pop, hip-hop, or dance music, the Hammer 88 Pro bridges the gap between your creative vision and execution.

DAW Auto-Mapping & Performance Control
Seamlessly control popular DAWs like Pro Tools, MPC Beats, Cubase, Logic, and Studio One with advanced Auto-Mapping capabilities. This feature automatically maps the controller to essential DAW functions, such as Transport controls, Faders, and Pan controls, thereby streamlining your workflow and boosting productivity. Plus, it instantly maps to a suite of virtual instruments included in the M-Audio software bundle (Hybrid, Velvet, Mini Grand, Xpand!2, Vacuum, Boom, and DB-33), designed by AIR Music Tech. These premium plugins not only enhance the sonic depth of your productions but are also fully controllable via the Hammer 88 Pro, ensuring a fluid music creation process.

Experience intuitive music creation with Smart Controls
Smart Chord and Smart Scale technologies facilitate a more expressive and streamlined music-making experience. Smart Chord enables the playback of complex chords with a single key press, improving over traditional methods. It also includes a Custom Mode that lets you define chord structures tailored to your compositions. On the other hand, Smart Scale restricts the keyboard to a chosen scale, eliminating the chance of playing off-key notes and fostering a more cohesive sound. With 16 different scale variations at your disposal, this feature keeps your creativity on track.

Features for Today’s Music Producers
Built-in controls such as Note Repeat and an Arpeggiator empower creators to achieve a sophistication typically associated with advanced production techniques. The Note Repeat feature offers a way to easily create rhythmic patterns on the fly, by automatically repeating a note played on one of the 16 velocity-sensitive pads. Meanwhile, the Arpeggiator turns your keyboard input into a melody or arpeggio pattern automatically, perfect for dynamic studio and live performances.

Product Highlights:

• Eighty-eight graded hammer-action keys with nuanced aftertouch response and dynamic zone control
• Sixteen RGB backlit pads for note playing, clip launching, and beat creation
• 9 faders and 8 knobs/buttons for intuitive control over DAW parameters and virtual instrument settings
• Practical Preset and DAW buttons for smooth integration with your music-making software
