Novation Launchkey 61 MK4 Keyboard Controller

The Novation Launchkey 61 MK4 USB MIDI keyboard controller gives intuitive, hands-on control of DAW's mixer, instruments and effects. With 61 semi-weighted keys, 16 velocity-sensitive drum pads and an array of knobs and faders, the Launchkey 61 MK4 lets shape sound and unlock creativity. Designed for Ableton Live and other major DAWs, it comes packed with powerful creative tools to help compose and perform. Fluid DAW Integration The Launchkey 61 MK4 provides seamless control of transport, mixing and plugin parameters in Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase and more. Eight encoders and nine faders give instant access to DAW's most important controls. The 16 velocity-sensitive drum pads launch clips and finger drum with polyphonic aftertouch. As work in DAW, detailed visual feedback appears on the Launchkey 61 MK4's crisp OLED display. Premium Keyboard Action With 61 semi-weighted keys, the Launchkey 61 MK4 keyboard controller delivers a premium playing experience for composing melodies, chords and basslines. The keys have a balanced, responsive feel across the octaves. For split keyboard parts, can divide the Launchkey 61 into two independent zones and play different MIDI channels with each hand. Built-in Creative Tools Launchkey 61’s creative tools are built into the hardware itself, so they work the same way in DAW, with hardware synths, or on mobile devices. Scale Modes now allow to lock keyboard to one of 30 different scales to eliminate wrong notes, or even map everything to just the white keys. Fixed Chord mode triggers full chords from a single key, and new Chord Maps take things further, allowing to craft emotive progressions from Launchkey’s pads. And the latest iteration of our much-loved arpeggiator makes it easier than ever to twist and mutate sequences for endless inspiration. Expandable Setup In addition to controlling DAW, the Launchkey 61 MK4 works great with iOS music apps and external MIDI gear. Its MIDI out connects directly to synths and other hardware. Powered by USB, it's a portable, all-in-one music production hub. To get started, it includes Ableton Live Lite and a pro bundle of virtual instruments from Novation, GForce, Klevgrand, Orchestral Tools and Melodics.
