video upload by sonicstate

"At NAMM 2025, we caught up with Tim from NeKtar, who introduced us to the new Impact LXP+ MK3 series. Building on the success of its predecessor, the LXP+ MK3 boasts expanded Cubase integration while retaining all its original DAW capabilities. One of the standout additions is the scale and chord feature, allowing for more dynamic musical exploration.

Nectar has significantly improved user convenience with timeline control, making loop-based recording more intuitive. The introduction of a loop record button enables seamless looping and editing. The MK3 now features endless rotaries with high resolution, replacing the older pots, allowing for smoother controls. Additionally, the MK3 offers NKS compatibility through a partnership with Native Instruments, enabling integration with their complete control system.

The series is available in several key sizes, including a 25-key version. It's offered at competitive prices, notably $199 for the 49-key variant."

NAMM 2025: U-he Shows the Zebra 3 Alpha

video upload by sonicstate

"Nick had a chat with Urs Heckmann from U-he, who was showing a sneak peek of the current Zebra 3 alpha version.

While it's still quite a long way from the final product, it's clear that Zebra 3 comes with a host of new and innovative features.

Urs highlighted that the inclusion of vector synthesis and a refined UI aims to push boundaries beyond what Zebra 2 offered. Zebra 3 allows you to mix four lanes into one, includes novel modules like the modal resonator, and features workflow improvements such as group selections and an integrated modulation matrix.

Zebra 3 also introduced new filter responses and pitch sources, offering flexibility to emulate various sound architectures. Urs explained that despite its alpha status, their focus is on refining sound design tools before rolling out other features, like an arpeggiator."
