Novation

Description

When inspiration strikes, the last thing you want is to slow down searching through menus or remapping controls. The Novation FLkey 2 37 MIDI keyboard controller is built to keep producers fully connected to the FL Studio workflow, combining 37 full-size synth-action keys, 16 RGB pads with polyphonic aftertouch and deep DAW integration into a streamlined creative environment. From step sequencing in the Channel Rack to controlling the Mixer, plugins and transport functions, everything is mapped and ready the moment the controller is connected. Built-in creative tools like Scale mode, Chord modes and an arpeggiator help accelerate songwriting and beat creation, while the OLED display provides clear real-time feedback throughout the production process.

Direct FL Studio Control With Streamlined Workflow

The FLkey 2 37 is purpose-built for FL Studio, providing immediate hands-on access to the software’s most important production tools without requiring manual setup. Trigger samples, sequence patterns and navigate projects directly from the RGB pads and dedicated controls, while eight endless encoders offer precise adjustment over mixer levels, effects and plugin parameters. Transport controls and workflow shortcuts help keep essential functions within reach, allowing sessions to move naturally without interrupting creativity. The result is a controller that feels tightly integrated with the DAW rather than separate from it.

Expressive Performance Tools for Songwriting and Beatmaking

With 37 responsive synth-action keys, the FLkey 2 37 offers a more expansive playing surface for melodies, chord progressions and basslines while remaining compact enough for modern studio setups. The RGB pads support polyphonic aftertouch for expressive finger drumming, clip triggering and dynamic performance control. Built-in Scale mode helps keep musical ideas in key, while Fixed Chord and Chord Map modes simplify harmony creation and progression building. An onboard arpeggiator adds movement and rhythmic variation, making it easier to develop ideas quickly and maintain creative momentum during production sessions.

Flexible Connectivity for Modern Production Setups

Designed to fit easily into a wide range of studio environments, the FLkey 2 37 includes USB-C connectivity for plug-and-play operation and a full-size MIDI output for controlling external hardware and synthesizers. Custom mapping through Novation Components allows producers to personalize controls for different workflows, while NKS compatibility supports deeper integration with compatible virtual instruments. Included software, including FL Studio Producer Edition along with a collection of instruments and effects, provides a complete production starting point right out of the box. Lightweight and bus-powered, the FLkey 2 37 is equally comfortable in permanent studio setups and portable production rigs.
