MKE is an Universal Midi Keyboard Electronics to built custom-made Midi controllers that include a keyboard. Combining the MKE with our controller electronics Pocket Electronic, Dial Electronic, CTM64 or MTC64 allows the construction of an unique Midi controller that exactly meets the requirements of the user.
These units can be connected to MKE:
Standard keyboard manufactured by FATAR/Italy with 2, 3, 4 or 5 octaves (keyboard types TP/7, TP/8 or TP/9, with velocity)
Pitch bend wheel (special spring-loaded rotary potentiometer)
Modulation wheel (special rotary potentiometer)
Remark: Because of technical reasons only the single modulation wheels of our accessories list can be used in combination with MKE but not the modulation wheel set !
Rotary or fader potentiometer for loudness/volume control (Midi CC#7)
After touch sensor or socket for sustain switch or another potentiometer for any Midi controller
