novation Launchkey 37 MK3

Scale and chord modes expand your musical vocabulary. Velocity-sensitive pads and buttons give you the expressive control you need.

Launchkey is the intuitive and fully integrated MIDI controller keyboard for creating tracks in Ableton Live and with your external devices. Launchkey is designed for musicians of all types and abilities. With Launchkey, regardless of your experience, you can create and perform music like never before. With multiple music creation features that can all be used independently, Launchkey overcomes creative barriers and expands the musical vocabulary of even the most talented keyboardists.

Eight scale modes open up musical realms by transposing the keys you play to notes in the selected scale. Simply select a root note and your preferred key and start playing. Three chord modes transform the keys and pads into an interactive surface for musical exploration, where every note played is tonally and harmonically linked. The arpeggiator lets you quickly explore melodies and find ideas, while the mutate function transforms your patterns into exciting shapes.

Custom modes simplify the interaction between controller and software while offering more power than ever before. Custom modes, which can be programmed via the browser-based Novation Components software, let you configure your Launchkey's behaviour, controlling control assignments, MIDI routing, pad colour and more.

Launchkey 37 [MK3] is equipped with a regular 5-pin MIDI output, allowing you to easily connect to the universe of MIDI devices. Combined with its considerable standalone capabilities, Launchkey is now the heart of your live or studio setup - with or without a computer.

Launchkey products have always been about flexibility. The MK3 models maintain this mantra. Improved, larger velocity-sensitive pads offer greater control over dynamics. Eight robust knobs bring your software to life. Integration with Ableton Live is gloriously seamless, with a dedicated button to activate the Capture MIDI function, as well as Track Arm, Quantize, Click and Loop controls that let you move through your session faster than ever before.

Not an Ableton Live user yet? No problem, Launchkey also offers full integration with Logic and Reason, and has out-of-the-box functionality with other DAWs via the HUI protocol - from Studio One and Cubase to Pro Tools.
