Introducing the Novation Launchkey MK4 keyboard controller

Launchkey is a powerful and versatile DAW controller packed with essential creation tools that are designed to streamline your creative process. The 25 and 37 key models feature a synth-action keybed, while the 61 offers a premium semi-weighted keybed for a more expressive and dynamic playing experience. These keyboard controllers also have 16 responsive pads for playing drums, instruments, and launching clips. The well-organised control surface provides comprehensive DAW integration, allowing you to control your DAW’s mixer, devices, and effects with ease.

Additionally, these controllers include an editable Arpeggiator, three Chord Modes for rapid musical progression, a Scale Mode to keep you in key, and a Chord Detector that visually displays the current chord on the OLED screen.

Launchkey keyboards feature powerful integration with all major DAWs, including Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, Bitwig Studio, Reason, FL Studio, Ardour, and more. Plus, they come with a software bundle with Ableton Live 12 Lite, GForce synths, Orchestral Tools, Klevgrand plugins, and Melodics lessons for complete music creation and learning.

Get hands-on

Take control of your performance with 16 Launchpad-style, velocity-sensitive drum pads. Perfect for launching clips, playing chords, and drumming, these pads offer intuitive interaction and expressive control. With polyphonic aftertouch, each pad responds individually to varying amounts of pressure, enabling more expressive and dynamic playing.

Always in key

Scale Modes now allow you to lock your keyboard to one of 30 different scales to eliminate wrong notes, or even map everything to only the white keys with Easy Scale Mode. Chord Detector shows which chord is currently being played, with a visual representation on the crisp OLED display.

Focus on the melody

Effortlessly create and alter musical sequences with the eight-step editor, projecting expression through tie, accent, and ratchet controls.

Overcome creative blocks

Explore a wide range of handcrafted chords with dynamic performance modifiers through Chord Map, perfect for captivating live performances. Trigger chords from a single key using Fixed Chord mode, store chord progressions with User Chord Mode, then play them back on the 16 velocity-sensitive drum pads.
