Novation Launchkey Mini MK3 USB MIDI Controller

Made to move. Launchkey Mini is Novation's most compact and portable 25-mini-key MIDI keyboard controller.

It gives you everything you need to start creating in Ableton Live – and it'll fit in your bag. Make tracks anywhere with Launchkey Mini's deep, intuitive Ableton control, arpeggiator, fixed chord mode, MIDI out, and tons of sounds in the box.

Create new melodies, rhythms and sounds with Launchkey Mini's easy yet powerful arpeggiator. Take ideas further with a customisable fixed chord shape that follows you up the keyboard in Fixed Chord mode. Add dynamic, expressive rhythms with 16 super-sensitive pads for drumming and clip launch.

Transport, device and mixer controls mean fewer mouse clicks. Device macros and mixer controls mean more hands-on control of your music. Sounds, instruments and effects from AAS, Softube, Spitfire Audio, XLN Audio and Klevgrand mean you have everything you need to get started. Throw all this content into the included copy of Ableton Live Lite, or use Launchkey Mini's integrations with Logic, Reason or any HUI compatible DAW.

Firmware Update v1.1
The firmware v1.1 update introduces the Strum Mode feature. Users can hold down notes and trigger Strum Mode by using the mod strip on the Launchkey Mini [MK3]. Strum Mode can also be used alongside other arpeggiator modes to really ramp up your musical imagination.

Other v1.1 firmware updates include adjustable pad brightness, toggled pad velocity and toggled MIDI clock output, as well as double tap control of the Shift, Arp, Transpose and Fixed chord buttons for one-handed operation.

You'll also benefit from a three-year warranty with award-winning customer support.
