The NAMM Show, Anaheim, CA, January 24, 2019 – Novation (booth 10506), a leading brand of innovative tools for electronic music-makers, is exhibiting its recently introduced SL MkIII, a MIDI and CV-equipped keyboard controller with eight-track sequencer.  
              SL MkIII is far from a typical keyboard controller. It acts as a hub for all of your music-making tools – a centerpiece to connect, control and create with your entire setup, computer or not. Create quickly and easily with your MIDI hardware and CV/Gate synths, and build your tracks in the eight-track polyphonic sequencer – everything in time, everything in key, and with every control at your fingertips. 
              Novation worked with Ableton® to create an unprecedented integration with Live, truly pulling your sessions out of the box. The full-color LCD screens give you full visibility of your parameters, while the pads, buttons, eight faders and eight knobs get you hands-on with your music – and in any major music software, using InControl. Deep integrations with Logic® and Reason – plus HUI compatibility with Cubase, Pro Tools® and Reason – mean SL MkIII can follow you away from Ableton, too. 
              SL MkIII boasts Novation's finest, most playable and expressive synth-style semi-weighted keybed, with a sprung action and Novation's highest scan rate, all tuned to the needs of the experienced player.
