Nektar
Nektar is a music equipment manufacturer founded in 2009, specialising in MIDI controllers, software, and hardware designed to bridge the gap between digital music software (DAWs) and physical control. The company is widely known for its "deep" DAW integration, which allows musicians to control software instruments and mixing parameters without constantly relying on a mouse.
Popular Nektar products include the Impact Series (LX+, GX, SE), known as an affordable, feature-rich USB MIDI controllers with transport controls and pads. Their Panorama Series (P1, P4, P6, T4, T6) offer a more premium controller, offering deeper integration including motorized faders (on the P-series) and clear display screens for plugin parameter control.
