Great Feel & Total Control
The Samson Graphite 49 USB MIDI Controller gives you all the performance and production control you need to get the most out of your music software. Combining an intuitive 49-key semi-weighted keyboard with a feature set that is both useful and accessible, the Graphite 49 is a sleek, powerful tool that allows you to express your most dynamic musical ideas.

Feels More Like An Instrument
The Graphite 49’s semi-weighted keyboard provides musicians with a responsive and expressive platform that is designed to feel more like an instrument than a controller. It comes equipped with velocity-sensitive keys that accurately capture the dynamics of a performance. After touch offers customizable control over a variety of effects and parameters, for example the addition of growl to a saxophone or vibrato to strings. With 49 keys, the Graphite 49’s pitch range is perfect for performing, while remaining highly portable.

Expand With Ease
The Graphite 49 is easy to use. With dedicated Transpose and Octave buttons, you can change the key of any given instrument, as well as expand the keyboard to a full 4-octave range, without using any sub menus or shift keys. With all of these comprehensive features, not to mention classic Pitch Bend and Modulation wheels, the Graphite 49 puts a wide range of musical expression and tone manipulation at your fingertips.

Custom Controller
Take full control of your DAW and virtual instruments with the Graphite 49’s controller functions. It features 9 faders, 8 encoders and 16 buttons, all customizable for the ultimate in hands-on control. Not only are they customizable, they can be programmed on-the-fly without the need for editor software. The Graphite 49’s large LCD screen displays the behavior of every function in real-time, enabling intuitive mapping with any software you’re using.

The Graphite 49 comes with presets for the following DAWs:

Logic
Pro Tools
Cubase
Ableton
Cakewalk
Reason
Traktion
Motu
Mk Control
Acid Pro
Audition
FL Studio
Nuendo
Magix
Presonus

Room To Create
Another way players can make the Graphite 49 truly their own is to utilize up to 4 zones on the keyboard for creating splits and layering sounds. This function allows different sounds to be assigned to different sections of keys for a completely personalized setup. With the keyboard divided into sections, the Graphite 49 lets you control 2, 3 or 4 unique voices simultaneously. Record your bass, string, pad and lead tones all to a single track and leave room for your creative ideas to run wild.

Trigger Happy
The Graphite 49 features 4 large velocity-sensitive trigger pads with after touch that can be easily programmed and assigned. Use them to tap out drum beats, cue one-shot samples or start and stop sequences. Expand your options further with a second bank of triggers, bringing the total to 8. With such versatility, the trigger pads are a vital performance and recording feature of the Graphite 49.

Elements Of Design
With a compact body design that is thinner than most controllers in its class, the Graphite 49 is perfect for live performance and studio applications. It’s constructed for optimal playability whether it’s placed on a solid surface or mounted to a keyboard stand. And its sleek, angled top panel offers easy viewing in any environment.

On-The-Go With The iPad
When combined with the iPad using Apple’s iPad Camera Connection Kit or Lightning to USB Camera Adapter, the Graphite 49 is a great tool for making music on-the-go. Use it with your favorite music and synth iPad apps that support MIDI controllers. For additional mobility, the Graphite 49 can be powered directly by the iPad when you are away from your desktop computer.

Graphite Comes Komplete
Bundled with the Graphite 49, Native Instrument’s Komplete Elements 8 software offers a comprehensive selection of studio-quality sounds, effects and tools for modern music production, composition and sound design. With over 3GB of samples, Komplete provides you with more than 1,000 premium sounds and 3 mighty player engines – all carefully compiled to provide a strong toolkit for both stage and studio.

How to Set Up RKS30X:

Video of RKS30X:

The RKS30X is in my opinion thebest keyboard stand on the market. I will explain why. First off thisuses a push button mechanism to adjust the height up and down. With theRKS30X You will not have to sit there turning a knob like withconventional X stands. With this one, you hit a button and you canadjust the height of the stand quickly and easily. This mechanism isactually also way more sturdy than the older technology. Most X standshave square shaped tubes. The Rockville RKS30X has circular tubes. Ourengineers found that circular tubes are more sturdy and are stronger andmore durable. These can withstand a ton of impact. The weight capacityof this model is 132 pounds. This is a conservative rating. I weigh 160pounds (pure muscle of course) and I was able to lean all my body weightonto this unit with my feet totally in the air and this unit supportedme easily. We rate this at 132 pounds capacity although it can reallyhandle more than this. The tubing is 1 MM thick. This is thicker thanother similar looking models on the market. We spared no expense inmanufacturing the best quality X stand.

We added thumbs on thetop of the stand where your keyboard sits to ensure your keyboard issnug and can not fall on the floor accidentally. The rubber feet onthese have ridges so that even if the floor is not level, the stand willsit sturdy. The rubber feet also will stop the stand from sliding onslippery floors.

The locking mechanism uses top quality partscoupled with amazing craftsmanship. These are truly the best builtstands. These are double X braced and can fold up quickly making themextremely portable and convenient.

Deluxe Drum Throne
Check out the new RDS30 from Rockville. We decided to not bother manufacturing those cheap thrones. We were more interested in quality at a reasonable price rather than just making the cheapest possible throne. One of the main differences between ours and others you will find on ebay are the mechanism. To adjust the seat up and down we have a knob you turn to loosen and then you can pull the pin out and adjust the seat, and then you put the pin in and tighten the knob. Since our throne has a knob you tighten the seat is secure and tight without shaking. The cheaper models on the market only give you a pin without a knob to tighten it. If you have ever used a stand or throne with this mechanism you will notice the shakiness. This cheaper mechanism is not sturdy. We decided to make our throne with only top of the line mechanisms.

This has a collapsible design making it completely portable. This model has 2 knobs. One for adjusting the height of the seat, and the other for adjusting the legs. The metal we use to manufacture these are clean and strong. Our Rockville throne is also double braced for added strength. We upgraded our throne’s padding to a 2.5” thickness, offering hours of comfort.. It makes a big difference when sitting for long periods of time. We covered it with a round vinyl covered cushion. The craftsmanship on this throne is truly great. I compared this unit to units from big famous brands and these are way better and like a third of the price. These are extremely durable.Shock absorbing molded rubber feet keep the RDS30 from sliding, and the solid ear casting gives the RDS30 remarkable stability and durability.The RDS30 is height adjustable from 18.9” to 24.4” so you can adjust it to meet your exact preferred playing position. This model is as sturdy as a throne can be.

If you want the best quality and best price, buy this throne. There are some out there for around the same price as this Rockville but they are not as good. They have less cushion, a cheap pin mechanism with no handle, and are not double braced. You will not be as happy with those though. This is a premium throne for the same price as the entry level thrones.
