Novation - Launchkey Mini 37 MK4 White
Novation's Launchkey Mini 37 MK4 White is a compact 37-key velocity-sensitive master keyboard designed for producers, composers, musicians and others who want complete control of their DAW from a single device. It combines expressiveness, ergonomics and an impeccable sense of aesthetics thanks to its white finish that makes any desk look like a creative laboratory. This MIDI controller connects to all the major STANs and offers an arsenal of functions for composing, mixing and triggering your clips without leaving your desk chair (or sofa). Polyphonic aftertouch-sensitive pads, a built-in arpeggiator, assignable encoders and Chord & Scale modes let you experiment without ever descending into cacophony. Designed to work just as well with your computer as with your hardware synths or iOS devices, this Launchkey adapts effortlessly to all styles of production. A true white chameleon that plays arpeggios and more. With your Novation Launchkey Mini 37 MK4 White, you'll also get Ableton Live 12 Lite and Cubase 14 LE to enrich your musical creation palette.
Presentation
Compatibility is one of the Launchkey Mini 37 MK4 White's greatest assets. Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, Bitwig, FL Studio, Reason... it talks to everyone. And when it's not talking, it's blinking pads. Thanks to its transport controls, you can manage your STAN with your fingertips, without having to search for the mouse between two brilliant ideas.
The Chord and Scale modes are there to save you from a cold sweat in the middle of a session. You don't need a PhD in harmony: you choose a scale, and Launchkey literally prevents you from playing a wrong note. Add to that a customisable arpeggiator and a Chord Map mode, and you've got a harmonic idea box that works even when you're out of inspiration.
Novation hasn't forgotten about physical synth fans either. Thanks to its mini-jack MIDI output, the Launchkey Mini 37 White can be connected to your machines without the need for a computer. It's almost vintage, but much more practical, especially when you're composing between trains.
And then there are the pads. Velocity-sensitive and with polyphonic aftertouch, they're responsive enough for intense finger drumming, but also precise enough to trigger chords gently.
Bonus: you can customise everything via the Components software, to make the Launchkey your own flagship of MIDI control.
By adding Ableton Live 12 Lite and Cubase 14 LE to your Launchkey Mini 37 MK4 White, Novation lets you combine two complementary approaches to music creation. Live 12 Lite immerses you in a fluid, performance-oriented environment, ideal for improvising, arranging and mixing in real time. Cubase 14 LE, meanwhile, opens the door to a complete production space with 24 MIDI tracks, 16 audio tracks and up to 96 kHz resolution.
With the stage ergonomics of Ableton and the editing power of Cubase, you've got a duo that's just as good at capturing inspiration as it is at fine-tuning your compositions.
