The Novation Launchkey 25 MK4 keyboard controller gives you seamless control over your favorite DAW. With its 25 synth-action keys and 16 drum pads, it lets you shape your music with precision and expression. Scale Mode locks the keyboard to a variety of scales so you stay in key, while the Arpeggiator creates intricate rhythmic patterns with just one note. The Launchkey 25 MK4 works with all major DAWs including Ableton Live, Logic Pro and FL Studio with no setup required. Perform and produce with this powerful yet compact controller.

Express Yourself With Responsive Keys and Pads

The 25-note keyboard feels natural and responsive under your fingers, allowing nuanced playing. Sixteen velocity-sensitive drum pads with polyphonic aftertouch give you tight control over percussion and clip launching. The pads' radial sensors increase sensitivity for consistent response. Set the pads to trigger chords, notes or other parameters with aftertouch for added expression.

Stay in Key With Innovative Creative Tools

Scale Mode locks the keyboard to scales you select for mistake-free playing. Choose from 30 options like major, minor and modal scales. Fixed Chord mode triggers full chords from single keys, while Chord Maps help you craft progressions. The Arpeggiator twists your notes into rhythmic sequences with adjustable speed, direction and octave range. Save and recall four Custom Modes to send MIDI data of your choice to software or hardware.

Take Control of Your DAW and Synths

The Launchkey 25 MK4 maps seamlessly to transport, navigation, mixing and instrument functions in Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio and more. Eight encoders provide hands-on control over your DAW with no mapping required. Create custom mappings for the encoders and pads using Components software. A full-size MIDI out port connects the Launchkey 25 MK4 to your hardware synths. Power the controller over USB and use it to control synths and apps on your iPhone or iPad.
