For finger-drummers, Launchkey 49 features our patented, velocity-sensitive FSR pads with polyphonic aftertouch. Each pad uses a unique radial sensor for greater sensitivity and consistency, delivering tighter, more expressive performances. They can also be set to trigger chords or individual notes with polyphonic aftertouch.
Lock your keyboard to one of 30 scales with Scale Mode to avoid wrong notes. Chord Detector displays your chord visually on the OLED display.
Effortlessly create and mutate sequences with the latest generative arpeggiator. Use the 8-step editor with tie, accent, and ratchet controls for expression.
Overcome creative blocks
Play chords from curated sets with Chord Map, save progressions in User Chord mode, and transpose them easily using Fixed Chord mode.
