Alesis Vortex Wireless 2 USB MIDI Controller (Returned)

Ready to Rock

Vortex Wireless 2 is a dynamic keytar controller with wireless USB MIDI transmission for controlling virtual instruments, plug-ins and DAWs.

A keytar breaks down the barriers you’ve faced as a keyboard player and lets you rock any stage in the world. Vortex Wireless 2 features 37 velocity-sensitive keys with aftertouch, eight illuminated RGB drum pads and eight assignable faders. So you’re

fully equipped for your stage performance.

The controller is worn around the neck, much like a guitar, and offers you maximum freedom of expression. A built-in tilt sensor reacts to your movements, whilst you can make further adjustments via a touchstrip on the left-hand side. Use it to create exciting pitch bends, volume swells, vibratos, filter sweeps and more.  

Unlimited freedom

Vortex Wireless 2 is a controller for performers who want to move freely on stage. An included USB receiver connects to a Mac or PC and establishes a wireless USB/MIDI connection with the Vortex Wireless 2. This also works, of course, with all other instruments featuring a USB host port. Other MIDI devices such as synthesizers or samplers can be connected via a standard MIDI output (5-pin). Power is supplied via batteries or USB.

Everything you need

Vortex Wireless 2 comes with a comprehensive accessory pack. So you have everything you need in one package. With Hybrid 3, Loom 2, Vacuum Pro and Xpand!2 from AIR Music Technology, as well as TimewARP 2600 from Way Out Ware, you get a comprehensive sound package. A full version of Ableton Live Lite allows you to arrange complete songs. A strap and cable holder are also included. However, you can also use any other guitar strap of your choice. With the included Vortex Wireless 2 software, you can easily edit the controller’s MIDI parameters. You can also save and recall various presets for different tours and setups.
