Description
Launchkey 49 is a powerful DAW controller with four octaves of semi-weighted, waterfall-style keys, eight continuous encoders, nine faders and 16 velocity sensitive pads for playing drums and instruments and launching clips. Creative Chord and Scale modes are built right in and work with the OLED display to make staying in key effortless.
Key Features
- Chord and Scale modes
- Powerful integration with all major DAWs
- Eight endless rotary encoders
- Nine faders and buttons
- 49 semi-weighted keys
- 16 velocity-sensitive pads
- Pro-grade software bundle included
16 Launchpad-style pads
For finger-drummers, Launchkey 49 features our patented, velocity-sensitive FSR pads with polyphonic aftertouch. Each pad uses a unique radial sensor for greater sensitivity and consistency, delivering tighter, more expressive performances. They can also be set to trigger chords or individual notes with polyphonic aftertouch.
49 semi-weighted keys
Launchkey's four octaves of semi-weighted, piano-style keys offer the power of a software-based workflow combined with the feel of a premium hardware instrument. Split the keyboard into two zones or Layer two MIDI channels across all keys.
Faders and encoders
Eight encoders and nine faders provide flexible, hands-on control over DAW mixers, virtual instruments, and effects. Store up to four Custom Modes for faders and encoders, and recall them instantly to shape sounds, balance tracks, or send notes, MIDI CCs, or program changes.
Seamless DAW integration
Stay focused with hands-on DAW control. Instantly switch between plugin, mixer, sends, and transport modes to keep sessions moving. In Ableton Live, access built-in Sequencer, Drum Rack, and Clip modes, so you can build and launch ideas without reaching for the mouse.
Workflow and navigation
Workflow buttons provide instant access to key DAW functions, speeding up production. Capture MIDI records any performance, even if you missed the record button. Toggle the metronome, quantise clips, or undo/redo with ease. The transport buttons mirror your DAW’s controls for play, stop, record, and loop, keeping your workflow seamless.
