Novation Launchkey 61 MK4 White MIDI Keyboard & Controller

Sleek White 61-Key DAW Controller With Faders, Encoders & Built-In Chord, Scale & Arpeggiator Tools For Effortless Music Creation – Novation Launchkey 61 MK4 White.

The Novation Launchkey 61 MK4 White brings a sleek, modern look to a powerful DAW controller, combining 61 semi-weighted white and grey waterfall-style keys with eight endless rotary encoders, nine faders and 16 velocity-sensitive pads for playing drums, instruments and launching clips. Re-engineered to feel like a genuine instrument, it puts deep DAW control, Ableton Live sequencing and a generative arpeggiator directly at your fingertips. Built-in Chord and Scale modes work hand-in-hand with the OLED display to make staying in key effortless — play instinctively with Scale mode, Fixed Chord and Chord Map, and shape evolving rhythms with the powerful built-in arpeggiator and step editor.

The five octaves of semi-weighted keys can be split into two zones or layered across two MIDI channels for added performance flexibility, and the nine faders alongside eight encoders provide extensive hands-on control over DAW mixers, virtual instruments and effects, with up to four Custom Modes stored and recalled instantly. Custom DAW integration with Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, FL Studio, Reason, Bitwig and Ardour delivers deep and seamless control, with built-in Sequencer, Drum Rack and Clip modes in Ableton Live allowing ideas to be built and launched without reaching for the mouse. The 16 patented velocity-sensitive FSR pads with polyphonic aftertouch use a unique radial sensor for tighter, more expressive finger drumming, and the package includes a generous pro-grade software bundle: Ableton Live Lite, Cubase LE, Novation Play, GForce heritage synth emulations, Klevgrand Slammer, the Orchestral Tools Parallel Orchestra bundle, Klevgrand R0Verb and Luxe effects, and Melodics lessons.

61 Semi-Weighted Keys With A Sleek White Finish

The 61 semi-weighted, waterfall-style keys feature a sleek grey and white finish that brings a fresh, modern look to the studio or stage while combining the feel of a premium hardware instrument with the power of a software-based workflow. Parts A and B zones allow the keyboard to be split into two independent sections or layered across two MIDI channels simultaneously — ideal for playing a bass sound with the left hand and a lead or pad sound with the right, or triggering two instruments at once for richer performances.

Faders, Encoders & Chord/Scale Tools

Eight endless encoders and nine faders provide extensive hands-on control over DAW mixers, virtual instruments and effects, with up to four Custom Modes stored for instant recall to shape sounds, balance tracks or send notes, MIDI CCs and program changes. Scale mode offers 30 built-in scales to keep every note perfectly in key, while Chord Map, Fixed Chord and User Chord modes make it easy to play rich progressions instantly, and the built-in arpeggiator with step editor shapes evolving rhythms directly from the keyboard.

Seamless DAW Integration & Workflow Controls

Custom DAW scripts deliver deep integration with Ableton Live 11 or later, Logic X and 11, Cubase 11 and 12, Reason Studios, FL Studio and Ardour, with HUI compatibility covering all other DAWs. In Ableton Live, built-in Sequencer, Drum Rack and Clip modes allow tracks to be built and launched directly from the controller, and workflow buttons including Capture MIDI, undo, quantise and metronome toggle keep production moving quickly and intuitively. The 16 patented FSR pads with polyphonic aftertouch can be set to trigger chords or individual notes for expressive finger drumming performances.
