The keyboard is bus-powered over USB, through which you can connect to recording software and virtual instruments, and can also be used to trigger external hardware via its 5-pin MIDI out.
It also has dedicated pitch and modulation wheels and an assignable volume fader to add expression to your performances. As no drivers are required and it is USB class compliant the Hammer 88 is compatible with Mac, PC and iOS devices.
