The Novation Launchkey Mini MK3 is a portable, take-anywhere 25-mini-key controller, designed for seamless music production with Ableton Live or any music software.

Deep and Intuitive Control on the Move

Novation's Launchkey Mini made its debut in 2014, and has since been the pace-setter in terms of Ableton Live portable MIDI keyboard controllers. With the new MK3 version, Novation have included a whole host of incredible new features - including an on-board Arpeggiator and fixed Chord Mode - which open up more creative melodic work and beatmaking on the move. The MK3 also features a MIDI Out connection, which make it perfect for a home studio setup used in conjunction with hardware synths or a groovebox.

Novation's seamless integration with Ableton Live make it a no-brainer for Ableton users on the move, whilst offering a myriad of MIDI control for any DAW software.

From fuzzy synths to building a rock drum kit, the Launchkey Mini MK3 takes you one step closer to creating your next hit.
