Novation Launchkey Mini 25 MK4 Black Midiklaviatuur

Novation Launchkey Mini 25 MK4 — Compact DAW Controller With Built-In Creative Tools

The Novation Launchkey Mini 25 MK4 is a 25-mini-key USB MIDI controller built for producers who want deep DAW control in a portable footprint. At 338.5 mm wide and 0.78 kg, it slips into a backpack yet delivers the keybed, pads, encoders, and OLED screen needed to arrange without reaching for the mouse. Custom DAW scripts cover Ableton Live 11+, Logic, Cubase, Reason, FL Studio, and Ardour, with HUI support for any other DAW. USB bus powering means a single USB-C cable handles data and power on the road.

Built-In Arpeggiator, Scale Mode, and Chord Tools

Unlike most mini controllers, the Launchkey Mini 25 MK4 ships with a generative arpeggiator, 30-scale Scale Mode, and three Chord modes (Chord Map, Fixed Chord, User Chord) running on the hardware. The 16 RGB pads use patented FSR sensors with polyphonic aftertouch for finger drumming, clip launching, and Ableton step sequencing. NKS-ready compatibility pairs the unit with Native Instruments software.
