NovationLaunchkey 37 [MK3] MIDI Keyboard Controller — Seamless Ableton Live Integration. Chord Mode, Scale Mode, and Arpeggiator. All the software you need for Music Production.

Quite sturdy and has lots of features for the price. Integrates very well with Ableton Live, but definitely give the user guide a good read beforehand, as the various options are not overly obvious at a glance. Note that it ships with a USB-B to USB-A cable, so if using on a recent Mac you'll need to purchase a separate USB-B to USB-C cable as well. Overall, very happy with this item.

This is little midi is quality in a compact form. Its easy to use and connects automatically with Ableton and Reason. The keys and pads are velocity touched sensative so will have to apply a little pressure for a deep or sharp sound and plays in real time. Worth the money for a professional experience towards music production, plus you can find tons of tutorials on YouTube about the performance of this controller.

Out of the box it looks great. Full size synth style keys, nice action on pitch?modulation wheels and the pots and sliders have a nice amount of resistance when operating them. I use Arturia synth plugins in the main and was able to use the Learn function on them to assign either pots or sliders ( can't use both on Arturia) to controls of your choice. When using it with a DAW you really need to download the very small control program from Novation site for you OS to enable the functionality of the keyboard within it. Other than a bit of a learning curve (intuition pays off if you're used to using other MIDI controllers) I think this is excellent for home users like me.

Slight difficulty registering for free programmes, but the keyboard itself is great quality for the price and really good for beginners and middle learners alike.

Partner loves making electronic music and already has an Ableton, this works with it really well and he was very happy to receive it. Really compact so easy to pop in a backpack. Brilliant!

I already own a Novation SL MkII so I'm familiar with the make but when a key stopped working and AutoMap became dodgy on Logic X, I decided to replace it with the Launchkey. I had a setting up issue which actually was nothing do with the keyboard. I rang the Novation technical helpline and their technician was amazing - really helpful and resolved the issue. I needed transport controls particularly and a straightforward but versatile range of functions. For me, this is pretty much ideal. The feel of the keys is good (not maybe as good as the Roland A49 or the Korg Taktile) but others may well disagree - it's about personal taste. So, I'm very pleased and would definitely recommend.

I'm a long-time rock guitarist but very much a beginner when it comes to home recording. I'm currently learning how to use Ableton and a bunch of plugins such as EZ Drummer. While I'm pleased with the results I'm getting so far, I wanted to start adding some drum patterns of my own. After some research it seemed that the Launchkey Mini should fit the bill and also allow me to add some keyboard sounds too. Still early days, but I was massively impressed that with Ableton, there's no setting up at all. I just plugged it in, brought up my EZ Drummer and it was on the pads already. Same with the Addictive Keys plugin that was part of the software bundle. I know that most people who purchase the Launchkey Mini will be using it in a very different way, but for my purposes, it works brilliantly.

I don't understand Ableton one bit, but this has been interesting as a direct MIDI controller, with the easy-scales feature being particularly of note. Not sure what all of the features are. It's quite sturdy and well made, and the pads have a good response, if anything slightly better than others I have used, as I hate having to hit anything too hard.

Was much better quality than anticipated for the low cost! Was well pleased with the sound quality and capability of product.

Lo conseguí a MSI y en menos de $4800. Siento que vale un poquito más.Sólo puedo opinar en su relación con Ableton 11.Se conecta y está listo para usarse. Si se requiere personalizar, hay un programa que se llama Components que abre las posibilidades de lo que se puede controlar.Lo necesitaba para liberarme del mouse y poder tocar y controlar Ableton usando éste controlador y un apc mini. Aunque todavía uso el mouse, me ayudó mucho. Quizás un Push 2 (en lugar del apc) sería la clave para poder estar completamente libre de mouse y teclado al producir.Lo vale.

Lots of functionality for a very reasonable price.

Teclas muito boas, funcionalidades ótimas e práticas, com certeza da faixa de preço para quem usa a DAW Ableton Live vale e muito o investimento, sou tecladista, e esse foi o meu primeiro teclado comprado para mim, já experimentei muitos outros de amigos, e nenhum nessa categoria é melhor.

1000% Satisfeito e muito obrigado para todos os envolvidos!!!!
