CME UF7

The CME UF7 is a 76-key MIDI controller that features a full-sized keyboard action, but it does not include aftertouch. It is designed with a robust construction and a wooden finish for a classic aesthetic. You can easily connect it to your computer or audio interface via its integrated USB and MIDI ports.

The CME UF7 connects via standard USB, making it universally class-compliant with most modern Mac and Windows computers without needing special drivers. However, because it is an older model, you might need to manually download legacy drivers depending on your specific OS version. It works seamlessly with major DAWs like Ableton Live and FL Studio.

While the CME UF7 can be powered directly via USB from your computer, it also includes an input for a 9V DC external power supply if you are using it with hardware MIDI gear. Using the external power adapter ensures stable performance when driving multiple external MIDI devices. This dual-power option makes it highly flexible for both studio and live setups.

The CME UF7 features built-in transport controls and assignable faders to help manage your digital audio workstation. In terms of software, older units originally shipped with a lite version of Cakewalk or similar DAW software, but you will likely need to supply your own VST instruments today. It maps easily to standard MIDI continuous controllers (CC) in modern software.
