You also get a bank of nine faders and eight endless rotary encoders for mixing, controlling plugins, and performing with built-in creative tools.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBeyond overhauled hardware and a refreshed, minimalist design, the next generation of Launchkey gives you new ways to get creative in your DAW, with hardware synths, or on iPhone and iPad. Chord, Scale, and Arpeggio Modes have each been expanded to help you stay in key and perform in even more expressive ways - all with detailed feedback from the crisp, new OLED display.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEnhanced DAW integration\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaunchkey supports all major DAWs right out the box, with seamless, custom integration for: Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, Reason Studios, Reaper, FL Studio, and Ardour. With these, you get a hardware-powered workflow that gives you full control of transport functions, timeline navigation, mixing and EQ, clip launching, and instrument and effect parameters. And when using Ableton Live's Session View or Logic's Live Loops, the 16 drum pads double as Launchpad-style clip launchers with RGB backlights that perfectly match what you see on screen.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOur best-ever keys and pads\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaunchkey 61's upgraded keybed is sensitive enough for the most delicate passages, but it's also built to last. Now with 61 semi-weighted, waterfall-style keys, Launchkey gives you all the power of a software-based workflow with the feel of a premium hardware instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAnd for finger-drummers, Launchkey now sports our patented, velocity-sensitive FSR drum pads with polyphonic aftertouch. Unlike standard pads, each one features a unique, radial sensor that increases sensitivity and improves consistency for even tighter performances.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMore powerful creative tools\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaunchkey 61's creative tools are built into the hardware itself, so they work the same way in your DAW, with your hardware synths, or on your mobile devices. Scale Modes now allow you to lock your keyboard to one of 30 different scales to eliminate wrong notes, or even map everything to just the white keys. Fixed Chord mode triggers full chords from a single key, and new Chord Maps take things further, allowing you to craft emotive progressions from Launchkey's pads. And the latest iteration of our much-loved arpeggiator makes it easier than ever to twist and mutate your sequences for endless inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWant to control more than one instrument at a time? You can now split Launchkey 61's keyboard into two zones, and play one with each hand - or layer two MIDI channels across all 61 keys and send the same notes to both.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlay your way with Custom Modes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaunchkey's controls aren't limited to their default assignments; just load up the free Components software in your browser, and configure them to behave exactly the way you want with your software or hardware. You can store up to four custom mappings each for Launchkey's faders, pads, and encoders, and recall them instantly from the hardware to send your chosen notes, MIDI CCs, or program changes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGo beyond the computer\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLaunchkey 61's five-pin MIDI output makes it easy to hook up your hardware synthesizer - no DAW required.
