Novation has announced a “revolutionary new two-octave MIDI controller”. This makes perfect sense considering their recent release of the V-Station a VSTi version of the popular K-Station polysynth. The ReMOTE 25 is designed for use in conjunction with a wide range of software and hardware.
The unit can be powered from both the built in USB MIDI interface or from batteries – including rechargeables which will auto charge on connection to a power source. All controls are fully user-assignable and there are 64 user-programmable templates, each containing over 60 parameters.
