Review: Really impressive - Seamless Ableton Integration! - I've just set up the Novation Launchkey 49 MK 3, and I can't get over how great it is! I upgraded from my M-Audio Oxygen 49. My old MIDI keyboard was a faff to get integrated with Ableton, so I wasn't really making use of the features outside the actual piano keys. The difference is like night & day, this really feels like an upgrade. Firstly, the Launchkey is class-compliant, which means you can truly plug & play. Ableton automatically detected the Launchkey and set it up, so no fiddling around in Ableton's settings. The first thing I did was register on the Novation website and watch a couple of tutorials. These explained how to make the most of your Launchkey. How the different menu functions work, the pads and the faders, how to use the pads for launching in session view, how to drum with the pads and to record MIDI musical parts. For me, the menu system will take some getting used to, but I can tell that when I've got my workflow sorted, it will become pretty easy. There are a few features for those who aren't skilled piano/keyboard players. From within the Launchkey, you can select a type of scale (F Minor for instance), and the keyboard will 'help' your playing so that you don't play any wrong notes. Great for a novice like me. There are also chord and arp functions, which are especially handy for those making electronic or house music. The product itself feels good quality, looks professional, and has so many features that I'm sure I'll still be learning new stuff in a month. If you buy this I really recommend watching the tutorials on the Novation website to get used to it, and you can really unlock the power of this keyboard. The Launchkey will work with other DAWs such as FL Studio, Cubase, etc, but I have not tested it on those so I could not comment on how well it integrates. But it is important to note that the Launchkey was designed for use with Ableton. I'm fairly sure you can map it to any DAW, as is usual these days, but it won't be as quick to use out of the box. Two Thumbs Fresh! System Requirements: Windows 10 or higher Ableton 10 or higher (Intro, Standard or Suite)
Review: Best 3-Octave Full-Size Keys Keyboard I've Ever Played. - I bought this keyboard because my long-time Roland PC-150, though it still works, is a pain to tie into a modern USB-driven MIDI world. The Launchkey 37 mk3 is small enough to fit happily on my desk/workstation, being one octave shorter than the Roland, and only a small amount deeper (back to front) to house drum pads, pitch/mod wheels, rotary pots (fixed range, not infinite encoders) and some other buttons for assorted purposes. Main thing is, it plugged in and worked first time with Windows 10, without needing any additional drivers. I'm using it for note entry into notation software (Finale 2005, and soon-to-be, Dorico Pro 4). So I am not currently using or needing some of the DAW automation buttons. Having said which, once I learn how to set this up, I will be assigning them direct access to much needed features in my scoring software. I've bought, hated, and ultimately thrown away (literally!!) several "short" MIDI keyboards over the years. This one is the FIRST of them all, that I actually feel (as a trained pianist and organist) I can PLAY. Textured black keys, a firmly but evenly sprung action, and even a pivot point (SO important) slightly behind the "fall", so keys can be played along their entire length. In short, this is QUALITY. Could even be tempted to buy one of the longer ones (61 note?) for rehearsals and gigging. Good work Novation, this is one lovely controller!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you use it with GarageBand ? X**
A: Yes, the Launchkey 49 is compatible with Garageband.

Best Regards,

**Q: Do the sliders / buttons assign with fl studio, this is the only reason i want this keyboard so i can control vst synths within fl studio. thanks**
A: Hi,

Our Launchkey MK3 range does have some integration beyond being a standard MIDI controller within FL Studio, but the integration doesn't include plug-in control. There is an article on the Novation help centre with detail on the extent of the integration and steps to set this up in FL Studio.

Saying this, you can use the Custom Modes on Launchkey 61 MK3 to map to parameters within FL Studio by using the Global Links mapping setting so certain parameters in the DAW will be controlled by the hardware faders/pots/pads for example. 

Our FLkey keyboards do include further integration with FL Studio compared with Launchkey MK3. More information on this can be found on the Novation website.

Best regards,
Jay // Novation Technical Support Engineer

**Q: Will the launchkey take power from a kronos via usb? i'm thinking of using the launchkey partly as a second keyboard onstage and there's no psu.**
A: The launch key can take power over USB, id recommend checking the Kronos specifications to see if it supplies enough power out of their USB ports to power the launch key.

Best Regards,

Kieron // Novation Technical Support

**Q: Does this work with Reason?**
A: Yes you can use the Launchkey MK3 range with Reason.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not only a keyboard but so much nore
*by C***C on 18 January 2025*

This is a very good keyboard and MIDI controller it is well built and very conveniently sized and hardly takes any room up on my desktop it is powered by the USB socket on your PC so no extra cables needed to power it and you get quite a lot of software included in the purchase and the controller is immediately recognised by the DAW software that is supplied so is easy to play and record music the drum pads feel very nice to use and they can be assigned to a number of your own presets as can the 8 rotary knobs very reasonable price for what you get I would stress that you take a look at the user manual as this keyboard has many surprises that you will want no know about
