Novation FLkey Mini (opened)

Novation is proving every moment that it is one of the world's leaders in the development of MIDI controllers and synthesizers. Now it is sure to please all music producers and studio sound engineers who compose and record in FL Studio software. The FLkey series MIDI keys are the first in the world to be designed specifically for this intuitive and increasingly popular DAW software. It is based on the popular Novation Launchkey MIDI keys and is available in 25 and 37 key versions.

The Launchkey Mini has won the hearts of customers especially with its compact size, light weight, simple design and intuitive operation, and the same is true for the FLkey Mini. So you can take the keys with you wherever you go and create or record music right on your long journeys or while relaxing in the countryside. The first generation has added features in the form of an Arpeggiator, new controls for transport or mixing, and last but not least, touch-sensitive Pitch and Modulation faders. The rear panel then offers a MIDI output in the form of a small Jack for additional synths, drum machines, or MIDI devices, and an output for a Sustain pedal for an even more authentic feel.

The keys are fully compatible with FL Studio software, which you get for 6 months absolutely free. FLkey Mini also works completely plug & play, so just connect them via USB cable to your device and you can start creating your new recordings. You control the software via eight rotary potentiometers and other controls that allow you to navigate the program without a single mouse movement. Also colour-coordinated with FL Studio are the 16 touch pads, which are highly responsive and backlit with RGB LEDs for better visibility, giving you good visibility especially during nighttime live performance and studio sessions. Included in the package is a six-month TRIAL version of FL Studio and a USB cable to connect to your device.

Get creative
Create new melodies, rhythms, sounds, run your fingers over the keys and don't let anything or anyone distract you. FLkey Mini also features a powerful arpeggiator, and you can now create busy dynamic beats with sixteen super-sensitive pads.

Your song, your way
Step away from the computer screen and focus solely on your playing and composing. Intuitive keyboard controls take you away from your computer mouse, monitor and laptop keyboard. You can control the entire software using the FLkey Mini control panel, so the keys behave almost like an analog synthesizer, bringing a whole new direction to the world of MIDI devices.

It's an instrument, it wants you to play it
MIDI instruments are no longer just intermediaries between you and your computer, over decades of development they have evolved into a regular and respected musical instrument that can handle live performance in addition to studio production. Despite its small size, the FLkey Mini packs a myriad of features, options and, when combined with the software, a myriad of sounds that will enhance your songs and beats.
