novation Launchkey Mini MK3

With the new version of Launchkey Mini, Novation has made its extremely popular handy 25-button MIDI keyboard controller for Ableton Live more versatile, adaptable and playable than ever. Now you can record tracks anywhere with Launchkey Mini's new arpeggiator, fixed-chord mode, dedicated MIDI capture button, 16 large RGB pads, transport controls, and more. With our best, fastest reacting mini keyboard, all-new pitch and modulation touchstrips, a sustain pedal input and 16 new backlit RGB pads, Launchkey Mini is the perfect platform for expressive performance and color-matched clip starts. The new Fixed Chord Mode and Arpeggiator help you steer your melodic and harmonic ideas into new creative directions by allowing you to extract chords from individual notes and transform held chords into riffs, melodies and sequences. Thanks to the MIDI capture MIDI key, you will never lose a single note, even if you forget to start recording.

Launchkey Mini's comprehensive and intuitive integration with Live lets you keep your eyes on the screen and feel the beats. Start and stop playback and recording using the special transport buttons, control the mixer's mute, solo, volume, pan and send controls, and control device macros directly with eight knobs. Now you can connect even deeper to your music and navigate and mix your projects even more easily than with a mouse and computer keyboard. Launchkey Mini comes with everything you need: sounds, virtual instruments and plug-in effects from AAS, Softube, Spitfire Audio, XLN Audio and Klevgrand. Plus access to Novation Sound Collective, which gives you free new content every few months from our plug-in partners. It also has a MIDI output for connection to hardware synthesizers and grooveboxes. And if Live isn't your only production environment, the included mapping templates make Launchkey Mini the ideal solution for mobile control of Logic, Cubase, Reason or any other HUI-compatible DAW.
