Novation Launchkey Mini MK3 MIDI keyboard met software

General

The Launchkey Mini MK3 is the most compact MIDI keyboard ever included in the Novation range. In addition to 25 mini keys, you get 16 touch-sensitive RGB backlit pads and eight rotary controls. The touch strips for pitch and modulation are an endlessly useful little upgrade over its its older siblings and round the back, there's a connection for a sustain pedal, increasing ease of use so you can add more expression to your production. This little monster comes complete with a substantial software package, including Ableton Live Lite, giving you everything you need!

Fixed Chord Mode & Arpeggiator

In fixed chord mode, an entire chord can be played with just one finger and by assigning a specific key, it's automatically transposed as you move over the keyboard. The creative arpeggiator is an easy to use yet thorough addition with which the rhythm, pattern, octave and the gate (among others) can be tweaked. Using the MIDI Out, the arps or other programs can be sent to other synths or wherever else you might want. The potential of this controller-come-MIDI-keyboard is so big, it really should be bursting at its little seams.

The Launchkey Mini MK3: Ableton Live Integration

This Novation MIDI keyboard works brilliantly with most DAWs but the integration with Ableton Live is particularly sweet. The Ableton integration gives complete control over track select, record, capture MIDI, clip and scene launch, stop / mute / solo, volume, pans and sends (to name but a few). Since the Launchkey 3 Mini MK3 is USB powered, you can literally use it any time, anywhere, just as long as your laptop has enough juice.

• Please note:
  • A power supply does not come included.
  • If you already have Ableton Live (Lite) it must be version 10 or greater to be compatible with Launchkey Mini. Launchkey Mini will also work as a standard MIDI controller.
  • As of the 1st of March, 2022, a two month subscription to Splice is no longer part of the included software package.
