64 programmable keys with an embedded T-bar fader and standard jog & shuttle wheel. Perfect for creating a cost-effective slow motion replay controller or for any system requiring linear input control.
Features
The XKE-64 Jog T-bar offers a smooth, accurate, and reliable T-bar control with 64 keys to create the perfect control panel for any application. Single units stand readily available for experimentation and prototyping. We support every customer from initial purchase and prototyping through implementation of multiple control consoles.
Prototyping
The XKE-64 Jog T-Bar ships fully populated with 64 relegendable keys - perfect for testing multiple layout options. Add optional large keys and key blockers to refine the layout. Using an established hardware platform saves time moving from prototype to production.
Production
When it comes time to reproduce your finished prototype, select options ranging from printed key legends to acrylic printed ABS keys to double-shot molded keycaps. We offer custom brand labeling, assembly, programming, and testing to provide a delivered plug-and-play solution. We specialize in 10-100 unit custom control solutions with the capability to step up to thousands of units for large-scale deployment.
