Description
This neat little keytar is the second generation Alesis Vortex. It’s a fantastic controller with eight assignable pads and sliders. Touch sensitive keys are a bonus on a keytar, as is the aftertouch option, allowing you to bring in extra effects while you’re playing, for added expression.
The wireless capability is a much needed feature for keytars, which have often been bogged down by cables and footpedals, defeating the object of having a keytar in the first place.
At just 6.5lbs this keytar doesn’t feel too heavy on your shoulders even after extended periods of playing. A great new addition to the keytar family.
