Studiologic SL 88 Grand + Statyw

The Power of Simplicity.
The SL88 Grand is nothing less than the reinvention of the high-end keyboard controller.

True innovation.
More than 30 years’ experience in exclusive keybeds meets an all-new, powerful, operating system. Perfect for you to control your hardware and virtual instruments. All provided in a powerful new refreshing way. Working together with musicians we have created a user interface which is perfect for quick navigation and setup, but also gives you excellent in-depth control. The SL88 Grand is ready to be at the very heart of your system.

A Great Keyboard for a Grand Touch.
The SL88 Grand uses the best-graded hammer action keybed with Ivory Touch and wooden keys, to give you the natural feel of a well balanced grand piano. Each of the keys provides 3 contacts for superior performance. The results of this combination are simply amazing. From the slightest pianissimo up to the strongest fortissimo, the keys translate every nuance of your performance in an inspiring and truly superb way.

Form follows perfomance.
With its compact profile, the SL88 Grand is an extremely portable professional controller. Even with its high-end graded hammer action / wooden keyboard, it weighs less than 21 kilograms. The SL88 Grand is studio and stage ready with a rugged full metal casing. Sculptured endcaps made of a highly resistant synthetic material help to shield the premium TP40 wood keybed perfectly and provide a safe grip when handling and transporting.

Total access with total ease.
Located in the center of the instrument is a razor-sharp TFT color display. In combination with the high quality six-way controller knob, you can navigate through all SL88 Grand functions fast and with ease. Functions such as switching through the four zones are achieved by moving the controller, and then by clicking and turning the same knob again, you can select and adjust the desired parameter. Simple, intuitive and fast! Additionally, the three pushbuttons to the right of the control knob bring you back to the top-level from any location in the system with just one push.

Real-time control.
The SL88 Grand offers three X/Y stick controllers, not just for performance but also for direct control and manipulation of any desired sound parameter. Stick one is spring-loaded for both X/Y directions. The typical use for this stick is pitch and modulation control. Stick 2 is spring-loaded in X direction only. Stick 3 is free in X and Y directions, ideal for panning, cross fading and parameter control. All sticks feature an elegant, aluminum control shaft which feels perfectly balanced and expressive between your fingertips.

Magnetic rail system.
With the innovative Magnetic Rail System at the rear of the SL88 Grand you can easily adapt a note stand or an extension plate to hold your written notes, music, laptop or tablet. It works as brilliantly easy as it looks. Just click the brackets into the backrail to match the position you need for your accessory items.

Setup, backup, perform.
The powerful new software editor helps you to easily setup your virtual keyboard rig. Mirroring the basic functional scheme of the SL operating system, its clear and ergonomic user interface makes creating and editing Splits and Layers a quick and easy job.

Mirroring the system.
Ease your setup.
The SL Editor provides a clear and comfortable user interface, which resembles the instrument’s editing structure, expanding and integrating the simple and complete screens.
Each parameter can be easily edited and all changes are synchronized in real time.

Organize your music.
The software Editor allows you to maintain and organize your projects; it works as a database and a perfect backup system for your SL controller. Organize your band and studio setups by dragging and dropping programs, groups or even entire content packages in a safe and fast way.

Shape your touch.
Use the SL Touch button to change, load or modify the internal Velocity Curves, according to your setup and playing preferences. Soft, Medium and Hard are the default Velocity Curves designed by Studiologic. In addition, you can draw your personal Velocity Curves, inserting points and connecting them with lines, controlling the relation between key speed and output value in all details. You can start from zero or import a curve, adapt it to your style and instrument and save it in one of the 6 user’s memories.

Balance each key.
Feel the difference.
With the powerful and unique Key-Balance function, you can change the response of each key, draw new balance curves or balance the black/white keys with a single control, with the help of a MIDI Meter visual feedback.
Drag and drop single keys to the desired value on the Balance Line. Or draw a whole new curve, by keeping the click pressed while moving the cursor all over the Balance area.
The result will be simultaneous on your SL88 unit.
