The Novation Launchkey 61 Mk4 USB MIDI keyboard controller gives you intuitive, hands-on control of your DAW's mixer, instruments and effects. With 61 semi-weighted keys, 16 velocity-sensitive drum pads and an array of knobs and faders, the Launchkey 61 Mk4 lets you shape your sound and unlock your creativity. Designed for Ableton Live and other major DAWs, it comes packed with powerful creative tools to help you compose and perform.

Fluid DAW Integration

The Launchkey 61 Mk4 provides seamless control of transport, mixing and plugin parameters in Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase and more. Eight encoders and nine faders give you instant access to your DAW's most important controls. The 16 velocity-sensitive drum pads launch clips and finger drum with polyphonic aftertouch. As you work in your DAW, detailed visual feedback appears on the Launchkey 61 Mk4's crisp OLED display.

Premium Keyboard Action

With 61 semi-weighted keys, the Launchkey 61 Mk4 keyboard controller delivers a premium playing experience for composing melodies, chords and basslines. The keys have a balanced, responsive feel across the octaves. For split keyboard parts, you can divide the Launchkey 61 into two independent zones and play different MIDI channels with each hand.

Built-in Creative Tools

The Launchkey 61 Mk4 features an arpeggiator, chord modes and a scale mode to spark your creativity. The arpeggiator generates rhythmic patterns from the notes you play. Chord modes trigger full chords from single notes. Scale mode locks the keyboard to notes in a chosen scale, helping you discover harmonic ideas. Use the components app to customize how the Launchkey 61 Mk4's controls interact with your synths and plugins.

Expandable Setup

In addition to controlling your DAW, the Launchkey 61 Mk4 works great with iOS music apps and external MIDI gear. Its MIDI out connects directly to synths and other hardware. Powered by USB, it's a portable, all-in-one music production hub. To get started, it includes Ableton Live Lite and a pro bundle of virtual instruments from Novation, GForce, Klevgrand, Orchestral Tools and Melodics.
