Expanded Chord, Scale, and Arpeggio Modes help you stay in key and perform expressively, with detailed feedback from the clear, new OLED display.

Seamless DAW Integration

Launchkey supports all major DAWs out of the box, including Ableton Live, Logic, 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 instrument and effect parameters. In Ableton Lives Session View or Logics Live Loops, the 16 drum pads double as Launchpad-style clip launchers with RGB backlights that match your screen.

The upgraded keybed of Launchkey 49 MK4 is designed for sensitivity and durability. With 49 semi-weighted, waterfall-style keys, it offers the feel of a premium hardware instrument.

Scale Modes allow you to lock your keyboard to one of 30 scales to eliminate wrong notes or map everything to the white keys. Fixed Chord mode triggers full chords from a single key, and new Chord Maps let you craft emotive progressions from the pads. The latest arpeggiator iteration makes it easier to twist and mutate sequences for endless inspiration.

You can now split Launchkey 49s keyboard into two zones to play one with each hand or layer two MIDI channels across all 49 ke
