Novation Launchkey 25 MK3
The Novation Launchkey 25 MK3 is an upgraded version of the MK2, designed to improve workflow and enhance creativity. It features a large MIDI keyboard with a high-quality keybed, performance pads, and transport controls for seamless integration with Ableton and other DAWs. The velocity-sensitive pads have been redesigned for improved expression, while the rotary encoders are perfect for controlling automation and tweaking virtual instruments. Additionally, the Launchkey 25 MK3 offers three chord modes and an onboard arpeggiator for exploring new ways to make music. Its sleek and compact design makes it ideal for any studio space, and it comes with a comprehensive software bundle including Ableton Live Lite and a range of powerful virtual instruments.

The Launchkey 25 MK3 provides maximum expression with its velocity-sensitive keys and pads. The keys react to the force of your touch, allowing you to translate emotion into sound. The performance pads have been upgraded to provide a larger and more expressive design, and they also respond to the force of your touch for more dynamic performances. These backlit pads are perfect for finger-drumming, triggering samples, creating melodies, and more.

The Launchkey MK3 introduces new ways to create melodies and chords. It offers three chord modes that allow you to trigger chords by hitting a single note. This feature is not only useful for music creation but also for live performances. The three chord modes consist of fixed scale, user-defined, and scale modes. The scale modes allow you to transpose both the keybed and pads to trigger notes in a selected scale, making it easier to create melodies that fit together harmonically. The versatile arpeggiator allows you to create rhythmic melodic pieces with ease.

In addition to the expressive keybed and pads, the Launchkey MK3 includes a range of transport controls and encoders for maximum control of your music software and virtual instruments. The encoders are perfect for controlling automation and tweaking parameters within instruments and effects. The deep integration with Ableton further enhances the transport controls, minimizing the need to switch between your computer and controller.

The Launchkey MK3 comes complete with a jam-packed software bundle that allows you to start producing and making music right away. It includes Ableton Live Lite, a powerful DAW, as well as a wide range of virtual instruments and effects such as Spitfire Audio LABS, XLN Addictive Keys, Klevgrand R0Verb, DAW Cassette, and AAS Session Bundle.

The Launchkey 25 MK3 is designed for Ableton Live, providing immediate access to all the controls you need for seamless integration. Its velocity-sensitive keyboard and 16 velocity-sensitive pads enable expressive and dynamic performances. The three chord modes, scale modes, and arpeggiator offer new creative possibilities for creating melodies and chords. The five-pin MIDI output allows you to connect to any MIDI-compatible device, and the easy-to-read screen provides clear visibility of what you’re controlling or selecting. The Launchkey MK3 also comes with a 3-year warranty from Novation.
