Kawai VPC1 88-Key Professional Midi/Virtual Piano Controller

 

Pro MIDI Control

The Kawai VPC1 Professional MIDI controller is for those who don’t accept compromise, with solid wooden keys, simultaneous USB and native MIDI, and touch curves approved by some of the biggest names in the business. More than 90 years of piano manufacture have taught us a thing or two about quality control – and it shows in VPC1’s every line and joint.

 

Uninterrupted playing experience

The design is simple, unobtrusive, yet smart and professional. There are no wheels, knobs, or faders bidding for your attention – this is not a multi-purpose 'do everything' controller. The VPC1 has been developed for one thing and one thing only: to deliver the finest virtual piano playing experience.

 

The Action

Wring the most detailed expression possible from your virtual pianos: RM3 Grand II delivers the most realistic playing experience ever found in a MIDI controller, with solid wooden keys, let-off simulation and much more.

 

Touch Curves

Use our touch curve editor for either Windows or OS X to finesse your keyboard to the nth degree, or stick with the included curves as approved by Synthogy, Galaxy, Native Instruments and more. The VPC1 includes preset touch curves for a selection of popular virtual piano packages. These curves have been lovingly prepared by Kawai's renowned keyboard engineering team and approved by the software developers themselves, ensuring your favourite virtual piano responds just like the real thing.

 

Grand Design

No knobs, wheels, buttons or displays. Just 88 solid wooden keys, a beautiful wide surface for your laptop, mouse, or synth, you, and your music.

 

Solid wooden keys

The VPC1 is equipped with Kawai's RM3 Grand II action, featuring our trademark wooden keys and smooth, consistent movement. Unlike other controllers, the VPC1 incorporates additional grand piano keyboard characteristics, such as graded hammer weighting, ivory-like key surfaces, let-off simulation, and bass note counterweights.

 

Included F-30 triple pedal

This sturdily-built unit supports half-damping, and is pre-configured to send the correct CC messages for damper, soft, and sostenuto events. No more mix-and-match sizes or polarity problems – just one solid unit, three reassuringly-weighted pedals, and a great piano playing experience. Take full advantage of your virtual piano’s stunning resonances and unlooped sustain with the F-30 triple pedal controller, included as standard with all VPC1s.
