The Launchkey 88 is a creative MIDI keyboard featuring a semi-weighted waterfall keyboard spanning over 7 octaves and 16 FSR pads (patented Force Sensitive Resistors Pads) ideal for finger drumming and clip launching. With 9 faders and 8 endless encoders, it allows for mixing, plugin control, and creative performance that accelerates music production.

Redesigned from the ground up with a minimalist design, the next-generation Launchkey supports new music production methods using DAWs, hardware synthesizers, and iPhones/iPads. Enhanced chord, scale, and arpeggio modes allow for more expressive performances while maintaining melody. Chord names are clearly displayed on the newly integrated OLED display.

Expressive drum and instrument performance
Expressive drum and instrument performance with 16 polyphonic, aftertouch-enabled velocity-sensitive pads. Clip launching and grid control are also possible with this single unit.

Easily Create Chords and Compose Music Quickly
Equipped with an arpeggiator and three chord modes (fixed chords, user chords, and chord maps), intuitive composition is possible even without knowledge of music theory.
