Novation Launchkey 49 MK2

The Novation Launchkey 49 MK2 is a quick and easy solution for producing and performing electronic music with Ableton Live. But even if you want to use a different DAW, you'll appreciate the Launchkey's ergonomic layout and ease of use. Just plug it into the computer's USB port, and the buttons, faders, knobs and velocity-sensitive RGB pads give you complete control over Ableton's Session View, instruments, effects and mixer.

Launch clips, control effects, play beats and more with the 16 pads on the Launchkey. They are powered by colored RGB LEDs to match the color of your clips, and their sensitivity lets you play drum sets with the naturalness you need.
