Novation Launchkey Mini 25 Keyboard Controller

Launchkey Mini 25 Launchkey Mini 25 is an all-in-one portable DAW controller with two octave synth-action mini buttons and 16 patented FSR pads for finger drumming, clip launching and more, so you can find inspiration anywhere. The next generation Launchkey also gives you new ways to get creative with your DAW, hardware synthesiser or iPhone or iPad. Expanded chord, scale and arpeggio modes help you stay in key and be more expressive, all with detailed feedback from a crisp new OLED display. Enhanced DAW integration Launchkey supports all major DAWs out of the box, and offers seamless custom integration for Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, Reason Studios, Reaper, FL Studio and Ardor. This gives you a hardware-assisted workflow, giving you full control over transport functions, timeline navigation, mixing and EQ, clip starting, instrument and effect parameters. And if you're using Ableton Live's Session View or Logic's Live Loops, the 16 drum pads also double as Launchpad-style clip launchers with RGB backlighting that perfectly matches what's displayed on-screen. More powerful creative tools Launchkey Mini 25's creative tools are built into the hardware itself, so they work equally well in your DAW, on a hardware synth, or on your mobile device. Scale mode lets you set the keyboard to one of 30 different scales to avoid false notes, or you can map everything to white keys only. Fixed Chord mode lets you trigger full chords from a single key, and new Chord Maps let you go a step further and create emotive progressions from Launchkey's pads. And with the latest version of our popular arpeggiator, it's easier than ever to tweak and manipulate your sequences to find 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; just load up the free Components software in your browser, and configure them to behave exactly the way you want with your software or hardware. You can store up to four custom mappings for both Launchkey’s pads and its encoders, then recall them instantly from the hardware to send your chosen notes, MIDI CCs, or program changes.
