Launchkey 61 is now available in white

Brighten up your studio with a powerful MIDI keyboard controller that looks as good as it feels. 

The latest addition to our Launchkey range combines a crisp, white-and-grey aesthetic with enough semi-weighted keys for your most expansive musical ideas.

Available to order now, Launchkey 61 White joins the Launchkey Mini 37 White and Launchkey 49 White we revealed last year and inherits all of the range’s most powerful features — including a bank of nine precision faders and the MK4’s new, semi-weighted key mechanism.

You also get Novation Play, an exclusive software instrument packed with presets and designed for 1:1 integration with Launchkey’s controls for an inspiring, hardware-like workflow.
