Novation Launchkey Mini 37 MK4 (White)

USB MIDI Keyboard Controller (White, 37 Mini Keys)

Add inspiration and convenient control to your setup with the Novation Launckey Mini 37 MK4, a highly compact DAW controller with 37 mini-size, synth-action keys in three octaves. With 16 flexible FSR RGB backlit pads, eight programmable encoders, pitch/bend controls, and a new crisp OLED display, Launchkey Mini 37 is a portable powerhouse.

Further control features include buttons for pad page, scene launch, function, encoder page, capture MIDI, undo, quantize, and metronome, octave up and down, and full transport controls. View what chord you’re playing in real time with the OLED display, lock the notes on your keyboard into a specific musical key, activate three chord modes (Fixed Chord, User Chord, and Chord Maps), and utilize the powerful and programmable internal arpeggiator. Versatile connectivity lets you connect to MIDI gear via 5-pin DIN, computers, and smart devices via USB-C, and sustain pedals via 1/4″. Like all Launchkey products, Launchkey Mini 37 includes a suite of powerful software to facilitate creation right out of the box.

Enhanced DAW Integration

Launchkey supports all major DAWs right out the box, with seamless, custom integration for Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, Reason Studios, Reaper, FL Studio, and Ardour. With these, you get a hardware-powered workflow that gives you full control of transport functions, timeline navigation, mixing, and EQ, clip launching, and instrument and effect parameters. And when using Ableton Live’s Session View or Logic’s Live Loops, the 16 drum pads double as Launchpad-style clip launchers with RGB backlights that perfectly match what you see onscreen.

More Powerful Creative Tools

Launchkey Mini 37’s creative tools are built into the hardware itself, so they work the same way in your DAW, with your hardware synths, or on your mobile devices. Scale Modes now allow you to lock your keyboard to one of 30 different scales to eliminate wrong notes, and you can even map everything to just the white keys.

Fixed Chord mode triggers full chords from a single key, and new Chord Maps take things further, allowing you to craft emotive progressions from Launchkey’s pads. The latest iteration of Novation’s much-loved arpeggiator makes it easier than ever to twist and mutate your sequences for endless inspiration.

Highly Responsive Keybed and FSR Pads

The 37-note synth-style mini keyboard is expressive, musical, and a joy to play. For finger-drummers, Launchkey now sports Novation’s 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 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.

Go Beyond the Computer

Launchkey Mini 37’s DIN 5-pin MIDI output makes it easy to hook up your hardware synthesizer, no DAW required. Together with Components and custom mappings, you can take control of all its most important functions directly from your keyboard. Launchkey is also USB-powered and class compliant, so it’s fully compatible with countless music-making apps for iPhone and iPad, including the free Novation Launchpad app.

All You Need to Create

Launchkey Mini 37 comes with everything you need to plug in and start making music right away. Included Ableton Live 12 Lite gives you the ability to record and perform with up to eight tracks of MIDI or audio, and with a suite of instruments, effects, and creative tools—it all works perfectly with Launchkey. You also get a selection of additional studio-grade effects and sounds from Novation and Focusrite.
