New to the series, the Launchkey 37 MK3 is the perfect sized MIDI kyeboard controller for small to medium sized studios.

If you want a MIDI keyboard controller that can bring all your favourite DAW functionality right to your fingertips, then the Novation Launchkey 37 MK3 is here for you. Featuring a redesigned layout that promotes deep integration with Ableton Live, you will hardly need to touch your computer. Activate the capture MIDI function so when your jamming you never miss out on any melodies or chords to use in your compositions.

The Novation Launchkey 37 is a new addition to the series bridging the gap between those who require more octaves for instant playability. A great middle-ground between the 25 and 49 key models. With this MIDI keyboard controller, you are also unlocking some useful features that are not found on your everyday controllers. The eight scale modes allow you to select your root note and scale and you will be able to play perfect melodies specific to that scale. Great for those without a strong music theory background. You can then activate chord mode to explore even more musical potential. These genius features let people without any music training create melodies and chords and structure songs

By including hardware controls for quantising, capture MIDI, click, and loop functions within Ableton, you will find yourself using your computer mouse and keyboard a lot less. In the long run, this lets you navigate your sessions much faster, which is great for when your formulating ideas and want to minimise distractions. Although the Launchkey series is optimised for seamless integration within Ableton, it does provide deep support for Logic and Reason users. If you are a Cubase, ProTools, Studio One or Reaper user, then there is also out of the box support for you as well.

Novation has gone one step further to ensure all Launchkey 37 users are not stuck for inspiration. Included with your keyboard is a large selection of software instruments and samples—some of which for exclusive to Novation customers. XLN Audio has included its Addictive Keys piano instrument, which is renowned for its sonic quality. Spitfire Audio are experts in the field of orchestral sample instruments. Having worked with esteemed composers such as Hans Zimmer, you can be assured of their quality. For the first time only they are including one of their LABS instruments, called Expressive Strings, for free and exclusive to Novation Launchkey customers. Additionally, Serato Sample LE, Klevgrand R0Verb and DAW Cassette, AAS Session Bundle, and a free two-month subscription to Splice Sounds is also included.

The Launchkey series comes with their best and most responsive keybed to date. The build quality has been vastly improved to be able to handle high-pressure environments. If you want to go on tour with a controller that will hold-up under stage and lighting effects, then this is the one for you. Additionally, this will sit perfectly within any music studio setup - especially Ableton, Logic, and Reason users.

Introducing the new Strum Mode included with the v1.1 update, a useful tool to aid your production and unlock your true creative potential. Users can hold down and play specific notes using the relative mod strip/mod wheel. Use Strum Mode in conjunction with other arpeggiator modes to create an entirely new style and feel to your music, let your imagination run wild.
