Enhanced DAW Integration
The Launchkey Mini 37 provides seamless integration with all major DAWs right out of the box, including Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, Reason Studios, Reaper, FL Studio, and Ardour. Enjoy a hardware-powered workflow that gives you full control over transport functions, timeline navigation, mixing, EQ, clip launching, and more. In Ableton Live’s Session View or Logic’s Live Loops, the 16 drum pads double as Launchpad-style clip launchers with RGB backlighting that mirrors your DAW.
More Powerful Creative Tools
Launchkey Mini 37’s creative tools are built into the hardware, ensuring a consistent experience whether you’re using your DAW, hardware synths, or mobile devices. Scale Modes allow you to lock your keyboard to one of 30 different scales, eliminating wrong notes and even mapping everything to just the white keys. Fixed Chord mode triggers full chords from a single key, while Chord Maps enable you to craft emotive progressions using the pads. The advanced arpeggiator offers endless ways to twist and mutate your sequences, sparking new ideas and inspiration.
Super-Responsive FSR Pads
For finger drummers, the Launchkey Mini 37 is equipped with patented, velocity-sensitive FSR drum pads featuring polyphonic aftertouch. Unlike standard pads, each one has a unique radial sensor that increases sensitivity and improves consistency, delivering tighter performances. These pads can also trigger chords or individual notes with polyphonic aftertouch.
Play Your Way with Custom Modes
Launchkey’s controls are fully customizable. Using the free Components software, you can configure the pads and encoders to behave exactly how you want with your software or hardware. Store up to four custom mappings and recall them instantly to control notes, MIDI CCs, or program changes.
Go Beyond the Computer
With a 3.5 mm MIDI output, the Launchkey Mini 37 makes it easy to connect to your hardware synthesizer via a simple adapter—no DAW required. Combined with Components and custom mappings, you can control all the key functions directly from your keyboard. Launchkey Mini 37 is USB-powered and class-compliant, fully compatible with a wide range of music-making apps for iPhone and iPad, including the free Novation Launchpad app.
