Novation Launchkey Mini 37 MK4 MIDI Keyboard Controller
Find inspiration anywhere with Launchkey Mini 37 – a portable, all-in-one DAW controller with two octaves of synth-action minikeys and 16 patented FSR pads for finger drumming, clip launching, and more.
The next generation of Launchkey also gives you new ways to get creative in your DAW, with hardware synths, or on iPhone and iPad. Chord, Scale, and Arpeggio Modes have each been expanded to help you stay in key and perform in even more expressive ways – all with detailed feedback from the crisp, new OLED display.
Enhanced DAW Integration
Launchkey supports all major DAWs right out the box, with seamless, custom integration for: Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, Reason Studios, Reaper, FL Studio, and Ardour. With these, you get a hardware-powered workflow that gives you full control of transport functions, timeline navigation, mixing and EQ, clip launching, and instrument and effect parameters.
When using Ableton Live’s Session View or Logic’s Live Loops, the 16 drum pads double as Launchpad-style clip launchers with RGB backlights that perfectly match what you see on screen.
More Powerful Creative Tools
Launchkey Mini 37’s creative tools are built into the hardware itself – so they work the same way in your DAW, with your hardware synths, or on your mobile devices. Scale Modes now 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, and new Chord Maps take things further, allowing you to craft emotive progressions from Launchkey’s pads. And the latest iteration of our much-loved arpeggiator makes it easier than ever to twist and mutate your sequences for endless inspiration.
Super-Responsive FSR Pads
For finger-drummers, Launchkey now sports our patented, velocity-sensitive FSR drum pads with polyphonic aftertouch. Unlike standard pads, each one features a unique, radial sensor that increases sensitivity and improves consistency for even tighter performances. They can also be set to trigger chords or individual notes with polyphonic aftertouch.
Play Your Way With Custom Modes
Launchkey’s controls aren’t limited to their default assignments. Load up the free Components software in your browser, and configure them to behave exactly the way you want. You can store up to four custom mappings for both Launchkey’s pads and its encoders. Afterwards, recall them instantly from the hardware to send your chosen notes, MIDI CCs, or program changes.
Go Beyond The Computer with Launchkey Mini 37
Using Launchkey Mini 2’s 3.5 mm MIDI output, it’s easy to hook up your hardware synthesizer via a simple adapter. Together with Components and custom mappings, you can take control of all its most important functions directly from your keyboard. Launchkey is also class compliant, and fully compatible with countless music-making apps for iPhone and iPad. This includes the free Novation Launchpad app.
All You Need To Create
Launchkey Mini 37 comes with everything you need to plug in and start making music right away. The included Ableton Live 12 Lite gives you the ability to record and perform with up to eight tracks.
