The New Nylgut® is the first product developed and patented by Aquila. The New Nylgut® is neither common Nylon, nor Carbon (Fluocarbon fishing line or PVDF), or a mix of them. It is a plastic compound of three different components

Compared to Nylon, the New Nylgut® produces a better sound and stays in tune better because the moisture absorption is less of .1% against the 2.0% of Nylon normally employed for the musical strings (i.e. Du Pont Tynex® polyammide 6-12).

Due to the higher density, similar to that of pure gut (1.30 gr/cm3), the New Nylgut® produces a better sound than Nylon and it is not so metallic like those of the so- called ‘Carbon’ (Fluorocarbon) PVDF strings. The manufacturer believes the New Nylgut® is probably the first genuine synthetic gut in the world. The New Nylgut® assures:

1. A better sound than Nylon or PVDF, similar to genuine gut strings;
2. A more accurate fret intonation due to the well gauged material;
3. A very stable intonation under moisture changes.

Aquila’s Red® strings produce a lower-pitched note by changing the weight of the material rather than increasing its gauge.

By keeping the gauge thinner and more consistent, Red® strings sound brighter and more powerful, and are more responsive across the entire fretboard.

This also helps them stay in tune longer than thicker strings.

The textured brown/red Red® strings have a very rich tone with a very loud projection.

Lava® strings were inspired by volcanos, a Hawaiian symbol of life, and are Aquila’s respectful homage to the Hawaiian people who helped make the ukulele famous worldwide.

The sandy-textured Lava® strings maintain the same mechanical and sound properties as the Super Nylgut® strings, but are a gray/black color instead of pearl white.

Ultra-responsive USB MIDI keyboard controller, with assignable knobs and buttons.

Novation's ultra-responsive, highly expressive MIDI keyboard hosts a comprehensive array of fully assignable controls, integrates seamlessly with Ableton Live, Apple Logic Pro, Avid Pro Tools and other major music software, and is built to be a true player's instrument.

Novation’s Most Expressive Keyboard

In designing Impulse keyboards, Novation went all-out to create a supremely expressive performance keyboard. Ultra-responsive with semi-weighted action and aftertouch, its full-size piano style keys adapt beautifully to virtual organs, synths and pianos. Novation's High Rate Scan (HRS) technology 'reads' the keyboard 10,000 times per second, capturing every nuance and detail of your performance to an incredible degree of precision.

Produce Better Music

Take control of your mix and sculpt your sounds with Impulse's endless smooth-action knobs, low-profile 45mm faders, plentiful buttons and LCD screen. Each control can be manually mapped to any DAW or plug-in parameter via MIDI, or automatically assigned using Novation's famous Automap software.

Do More with Your Drum Pads Impulse's eight pressure-sensitive, backlit pads are perfect for playing and recording drum and percussion tracks, with Roll mode making light work of automatic note repeats.

Going beyond beats, Arp mode uses the pads for real-time arpeggio design, while in Ableton Live, they can even be assigned as multi-coloured clip launchers – yellow for a loaded clip, green for a playing clip, or red for a recording clip.

Connect To Just About Anything Being class-compliant and USB bus-powered, Impulse keyboard only has to be plugged into a Mac or PC to get up and running – no power supply required. It's gig-ready, too, with a 5-pin DIN MIDI Out port enabling connection to hardware synths and sound modules.
