The Creative Controller
Made for creative music makers, the new Launchkey puts deep DAW control, Ableton Live sequencing, and a generative arpeggiator at your fingertips — with chord and scale tools, a pro-grade software bundle, and a re-engineered design that feels like an instrument.
Play music. Get creative:
Control your software and unlock new musical ideas with the new Launchkey. Play instinctively with Scale, Fixed Chord, and Chord Map, shape evolving rhythms with the arpeggiator, and take hands-on control of your DAW to turn inspiration into tracks.
- Powerful DAW integration
Launchkey offers custom integration with Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, FL Studio, Reason, Bitwig, and Ardour. - Built-in creative tools
Powerful built-in Arpeggiator and three Chord Modes make it easy to create musical progressions, ensuring you're never waiting for inspiration. - Our best ever pads
Take control with 16 velocity-sensitive pads with polyphonic aftertouch, perfect for launching clips, playing chords, and expressive drumming.
16 Launchpad-style pads
For finger-drummers, Launchkey 49 White features our patented, velocity-sensitive FSR pads with polyphonic aftertouch. Each pad uses a unique radial sensor for greater sensitivity and consistency, delivering tighter, more expressive performances. They can also be set to trigger chords or individual notes with polyphonic aftertouch.
49 semi-weighted keys
49 semi-weighted, piano-style keys with a sleek grey and white finish offer the power of a software-based workflow combined with the feel of a premium hardware instrument. Split the keyboard into two zones or Layer two MIDI channels across all keys.
Faders and encoders
Eight encoders and nine faders provide flexible, hands-on control over DAW mixers, virtual instruments, and effects. Store up to four Custom Modes for faders and encoders, and recall them instantly to shape sounds, balance tracks, or send notes, MIDI CCs, or program changes.
Seamless DAW integration
Stay focused with hands-on DAW control. Instantly switch between plugin, mixer, sends, and transport modes to keep sessions moving. In Ableton Live, access built-in Sequencer, Drum Rack, and Clip modes, so you can build and launch ideas without reaching for the mouse.
Workflow and navigation
Workflow buttons provide instant access to key DAW functions, speeding up production. Capture MIDI records any performance, even if you missed the record button. Toggle the metronome, quantise clips, or undo/redo with ease. The transport buttons mirror your DAW’s controls for play, stop, record, and loop, keeping your workflow seamless.
Powerful creative tools:
- Always in key
Lock your keyboard to one of 30 scales with Scale Mode to avoid wrong notes. Chord Detector displays your chord visually on the OLED display. - Move with the melody
Effortlessly create and mutate sequences with the latest generative arpeggiator. Use the 8-step editor with tie, accent, and ratchet controls for expression. - Overcome creative blocks
Play chords from curated sets with Chord Map, save progressions in User Chord mode, and transpose them easily using Fixed Chord mode. - NKS-ready hardware
We've partnered with Native Instruments to bring NKS compatibility to Launchkey, offering seamless integration between NI software and Novation hardware. - Create your own control surfaces
Map MIDI parameters to any pad, encoder, or fader using Novation's easy-to-use Components software.
