Download Nektar Driver
Create a file nektar.list in /etc/apt/sources.list.d with the appropriate URL from the Table 1 below. Ensure the non-free component is available for your main Debian repository in /etc/apt/source.list. In fact, ALL Nektar controllers now have DAW integration for Studio One, from their smallest controller (the SE25), to Impact GX, Impact LX+, Pacer (!) and Panorama. The Panorama support is for version 4 and higher, all other products also support version 3 (with Panorama obviously having the most features also due to the displays.).
Nektar++ is available both as pre-compiled binaries for some operating systems and as source-code tarballs.
