The Launchkey MK3’s keybed and pads offer maximum expression with velocity-sensitive keys and pads. The keys react to the force of your touch, allowing you to translate emotion into sound. Whether you strike the keys hard for a more brash sound or subtly press them for a softer tone, you can add nuances to your performance. The performance pads have also been upgraded for a larger and more expressive design. They too respond to the force of your touch, resulting in more dynamic performances. These backlit pads are perfect for finger-drumming, triggering samples, creating melodies, and much more.
The Launchkey MK3 introduces new ways to create melodies and chords. With its three chord modes, you can trigger chords from hitting a single note. This is not only useful for music creation but also for live performances. The three chord modes include fixed scale, user-defined chord patterns, and scales that allow you to transpose both the keybed and pads. This feature ensures that you can hit any key and create something coherent and in key. The versatile arpeggiator enables you to create rhythmic and melodic pieces with ease.
In addition to the expressive keybed and pads, the Launchkey MK3 offers a range of transport controls, encoders, and faders for maximum control of your music software and virtual instruments. The encoders and faders are perfect for controlling automation and tweaking parameters. The deep integration with Ableton takes the transport controls to the next level, minimizing the need to switch between computer and controller.
The Launchkey MK3 comes complete with a jam-packed music software bundle, allowing you to start producing and making music straight out of the box. The bundle includes Ableton Live Lite, which is a powerful DAW, along with a wide range of virtual instruments and effects. Some of the included virtual instruments and effects are Spitfire Audio LABS, XLN Addictive Keys, Klevgrand R0Verb, DAW Cassette, and AAS Session Bundle.
The Launchkey MK3 is designed for Ableton Live, providing immediate access to all the controls you need. Its velocity-sensitive keyboard and 16 velocity-sensitive pads enable expressive and dynamic performance. The three chord modes and scale modes ensure that you never hit a wrong note and allow you to create chords with one finger. The powerful arpeggiator opens up new melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic possibilities. The Launchkey MK3 also has a five-pin MIDI output for compatibility with any MIDI-compatible device.
With its easy-to-read screen, you can easily see the state of what you’re controlling or selecting. The Launchkey MK3 comes with free software, including Ableton Live 10 Lite, virtual instruments, plugins, and sample packs, allowing you to start creating immediately. It also features eight rotary encoders and nine 45mm faders for tweaking instruments and effects to perfection.
