Product Overview

Expressive Control in a Compact Footprint

The Launchkey 25 MK4 is the latest evolution in the iconic Launchkey series, redesigned to look and play like a true instrument. It is perfect for producers who want a professional playing experience without taking up too much desk space. Whether you are performing live with Ableton Live or building complex arrangements in Logic Pro or FL Studio, the MK4 offers the tactile response and smart features needed to stay in the creative flow.

Product Description

Professional Keybed and Polyphonic Pads:

The MK4 features a premium semi-weighted keybed that offers a superior feel compared to standard synth-action controllers. Complementing the keys are 16 patented Launchpad-style FSR pads with polyphonic aftertouch. These pads are not only perfect for finger drumming and clip launching but also allow for nuanced expression on every individual note, bringing your virtual instruments to life.

Creative Tools and Smart Play:

Unlock new melodic and harmonic possibilities with the built-in Scale and Chord modes. You can choose from 30 different scales to stay perfectly in key, while the Chord Map and User Chord modes allow you to trigger complex harmonies with a single touch. The crisp OLED display provides instant feedback, including a Chord Detector that identifies the notes you are playing in real-time.

Advanced DAW Integration and Connectivity:

The Launchkey 25 MK4 offers seamless, deep integration with all major DAWs, including Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, and Reason. It features 8 continuous rotary encoders and dedicated transport controls for total command over your session. For hardware lovers, the 5-pin MIDI Out port lets you control external synths and drum machines, all while being powered via a modern USB-C connection.
