The motorized fader is also everything you want it to be: works great for touch and latch automation. Panorama does ALL of that smoothly and easily. I can also customize the 12 pads to control key switches for the performance (to select different articulations on the fly). With that done, I can go into Logic and use Mixer mode or Transport mode to drive Logic around, and then when I'm ready to record a performance for a symphonic part, I record arm the track in Mixer mode and then switch to Internal mode to perform. So I go to Internal mode, check the EastWest docs for CC numbers, and quickly and easily set up my performance controls on the P6 faders, and then save that preset. I want to choose which performance parameters (e.g., vibrato amount and portamento time, etc.) are mapped to which faders on the P6. Let me elaborate slightly: I'm using EastWest Symphonic Library in Logic Pro X.
2017 CUBASE 9 PRO NEKTAR PANORAMA AND SOFTWARE
Not only is this controller very powerful in Internal mode, it is also much easier to configure custom control setups right from the keyboard (no need to run some software and import/export controller maps, etc.), and the BEST BEST thing is you can switch back and forth between your customized Internal mode setup and the auto-mapped DAW controller modes as much as you want. Perhaps my favorite thing about this controller is the Internal mode, which is a mode where it's just a generic MIDI controller. I like the fact that the faders are on the left which means I can be making real-time parameter changes with my left hand while performing with my right hand.
You do have to go through a few software installs and firmware upgrades, but those went smoothly and then I was in business! The display is perfect for keeping you aware of what you're doing - it's big and bright and very readable and laid out logically. Logic Pro X integration is tight and easy.
But I'm happy to report that in this case, it works as advertised! So I was understandably skeptical about the Nektar Panorama concept. For some reason, it really wasn't that integrated, and changing or customizing the controls was difficult. When I bought it, I didn't look too deeply into it, I just assumed it would map all parameters well and control software effectively and be effortless - the software I wanted to control was made by the same company as the controller! It didn't work out so well.
