Uninhibited control for DAWs and virtual instruments

A custom controller that feels more like an instrument. With the Samson Graphite 49 in your arsenal, your production experience will never be the same again. This 49-key controller is equipped with nine faders, eight encoders, and sixteen buttons that can be customised and programmed to suit your needs. Programming your controls is quick and easy. There's no need for editing software. The Graphite 49 features a large LCD screen that allows you to see and adjust every function of your keyboard in real-time. With a vast selection of presets for most popular DAWs, you can be up and running in no time.

Endless creative options

Perform the way you want to. With the Samson Graphite 49, you can split the keyboard into four separate zones, perfect for creating splits and layering your sounds. You can assign different instruments to different zones, giving you the opportunity to control up to four unique voices simultaneously. Along with the keyboard, the pads also feature aftertouch, and can be assigned to fit your needs. Perfect for drums, one-shot samples, and even for start and stop sequences, the pads offer you a way to expand your keyboard's abilities with exceptional flexibility.

Phenomenal portability

Compact design for performers on-the-go. The Graphite 49 boasts a body that is much more slimline in comparison to other controllers in its class. You can utilise the keyboard on any solid surface, or mount it on a keyboard stand. No matter where you play, the Graphite 49 has been designed to offer sleek playability with easy navigation. Plus, with an angled top panel, you can view and adjust your keyboard parameters in any environment with ease. Hook the keyboard up to an iPad using Apple's iPad Camera Connection Kit or Lightning-to-USB Camera Adapter. When you’re plugged into your iPad, the tablet can be used to power your controller, meaning you don't even need to be near a power source.

The Komplete production package

Get to work. Straight out of the box. The Samson Graphite 49 comes bundled with a copy of Native Instruments Komplete Elements 8. With this comprehensive selection of studio-quality sounds, effects, and tools, you have a huge arsenal at your disposal for production, composition, and sound design. Komplete Elements 8 provides you with over 3GB of samples, more than 1,000 premium sounds, and three powerful NI player engines.
