4 Nektar Aura Owner‘s Manual www.nektartech.com
A big thank you for buying Aura - the Nektarine Beat Composer. Aura is a great pad instrument developed with beat creation in mind. It fea-
tures a drum machine style step sequencer which allows you to program a pattern for every pad and trigger them at any time, in any com-
bination. Aura can be used in this way as part of a stand-alone MIDI system. Combined with the included Nektarine VST/VST3/AU and AAX
plugin, the Aura system in addition becomes a powerful plugin control system where you can combine sounds from your favorite plugins
with send and insert effects. With Aura hooked up to your DAW, Nektar DAW integration helps capture pad performances or Aura sequencer
for a complete beat composing experience. We designed Aura with the aim to make beat creation simpler, more transparent and most of all
fun. If Aura inspires you to create new and exciting grooves, we’ve succeeded in what we set out to achieve. Enjoy!.
