Novation Launchkey 61 MK4 MIDI Keyboard Controller with 61 Keys

Unleash your musical creativity with the Novation Launchkey 61 MK4, a powerful and versatile MIDI keyboard controller designed to elevate your studio setup and live performances. Featuring 61 velocity-sensitive keys, this full-size controller offers a comprehensive range of hands-on controls for expressive play and precise sound shaping. Whether you’re a producer, performer, or studio musician, the Launchkey 61 delivers seamless integration with major digital audio workstations (DAWs) and an intuitive interface that streamlines your creative workflow.

Built with a robust and ergonomic layout, the Launchkey 61 includes 16 velocity-sensitive RGB backlit pads, eight assignable knobs, and dedicated transport and automation controls. Its innovative Scale and Chord Modes let you play in key and create complex harmonies with ease, while the built-in arpeggiator helps generate new melodic ideas. With tight integration with Ableton Live and compatibility across all major DAWs, the Launchkey 61 MK4 is an essential tool for modern music creation — equally at home in the studio or on stage.

More Powerful Creative Tools

Launchkey 61’s creative tools are built directly into the hardware, so they work seamlessly in your DAW, with your hardware synths, or on your mobile devices. Scale Modes allow you to lock your 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, while new Chord Maps take things further, letting you craft expressive progressions from Launchkey’s pads. The latest version of the arpeggiator makes it easy to twist, evolve, and reshape your sequences for endless inspiration.
