Novation FLkey 61 MIDI Keyboard Controller for FL Studio | Demo and Overview with Bonnie McIntosh

collapse expand iconDescription

The Novation FLkey 61 full-size MIDI keyboard controller gives you the ultimate hands-on music production workflow in FL Studio. With controls for FL Studio’s Sequencer, Channel Rack and Mixer, as well as creative Scale and Chord modes, FLkey 61 lets you play freely so you can make more of your music.

Stay in the Groove

Sequencer Mode maps FLkey 61’s pads to FL Studio’s step sequencer for programming beats fast. Use the pads to change or create new patterns without switching back to your computer. Give your rhythms real human feel and get off the grid: play straight into the Channel Rack or FPC, and trigger slices in SliceX. Need some crisp hi-hat rolls? Note Repeat makes it easy every single time.

Mix, Create and Automate

Bring FL Studio’s Mixer and Channel Rack controls off the screen, into your hands—use the eight pots and nine faders to tweak your volumes or pans and record automation on the fly. Essential transport buttons give you access to your score log, and you can undo, redo, quantize and trigger metronome in an instant. Browse presets in your Image Line plug-ins to change up instruments and sounds fast, with no mouse needed.

Connect With Your Music

In Scale mode you always hit the right note, keeping the music flowing. Three Chord modes let you play a range of chords with one finger, unlocking big harmonies and new sounds instantly. Combine FLkey 61’s musical tools to unlock new creative boundaries and find ideas you never knew you had. FLkey 61 comes with a bundle of instruments and effects from our friends at AAS, Spitfire Audio, XLN Audio and Klevgrand. Throw all this content into your existing FL Studio projects or have a go with an included six-month free trial of FL Studio Producer Edition.
