Novation Launchkey 61 MK3
The Novation Launchkey 61 [MK3] is a 61-key USB MIDI keyboard controller built for deep, hands-on integration with Ableton Live and many other DAWs. It blends an expressive keybed with creative tools that help ideas flow whether or not a computer is connected.
A synth-action velocity-sensitive keybed sits alongside 16 RGB velocity-sensitive pads, eight rotary knobs and nine 45 mm faders with transport controls for full mixer and instrument command. Scale and Chord modes keep you in key and let you trigger chords with one finger, a powerful arpeggiator and Strum mode get melodies moving, and a 16x2 screen plus Capture MIDI keep workflow fast. A full-size five-pin MIDI output drives external synths, and it runs standalone over USB power.
It ships with full Ableton Live and Logic integration plus a free software bundle. DjLab supplies genuine Novation in Lebanon with USD pricing, warranty handled locally, and fast delivery.
