Novation Launchkey 49 MK2 Review & Recording 

This was so informative. Really cleared a lot of things I had in my mind. Great work!

Awesome review man. Simple, straight to the point. I love it and I can't wait for mine to come in the mail.

He's accent is actually Really pleasurable. I feel like I can understand Malaysian. Thanks for this video brother

Nice demo...I just purchased this and really like its flexibility and ease of use.

Came across this video while checking for looper, good review and thank you for sharing....I like the short music which makes easier to understand the device. Would love to see more of those music, very soothing. Thanks again Cheers!

Your review is always awesome. You go direct to what people need to see when deciding prior to a purchase. I’m in search of a new MIDI controller to replace my sickening M Audio Oxygen 49 Blue which keep doing phantom pitch bends, out of tune nonsense. Thanks for this review help me a lot in narrowing my choice.

Such a helpful video. I realise this is an older product, but I wanted to congratulate you on your video.

Cool. Finally, someone that attempts (and succeeds) at making music instead of noise, when explaining the basics. Thanks.

Really great video! Your presentation is spot on! You explain everything clearly. Thanks so much! I subscribed as well!

Really helped.... Watched a review saying u can't use the drum pads on Logic Pro x . But now I know that I can. Great review

Perfect this was the exact review I was looking for I know what I'm buying thank you.

Well explained! And your accent is really nice to hear

Very nice review! Concise and well presented, thank you! Timely as my old M-Audio Oxygen 49 decided to get very temperamental and lose some keys... Looked at several options, but the Novation seems to be continually at the top of my list.... Best, Steve

Dude! Music, Amazing really awesome, the melodys were all there keep striving beautiful

I ordered it just now, thanks for the review! I am pretty excited!

Ace review dude! Thanks for finally bringing my 6-month-long search for a new MIDI keyboard to an end ;L Subbed!

That's a beautiful tune. Especially when the strings came in....

got the launchkey mini and lauchkey 49 mk 2 love them both, great video

I’m sold. Well explained. I will get Launchkey49 because of this vid. Thanks.

thank for your well explained. im gonna buy it this week.

I play the piano and i'm looking for learning how to create music, I didn't know where to start to choose the midi keyboard i wanted, i think you definitely convinced me !

I use my Roland e09 with midi usb converter to play.. hopefully il get myself a controller one day.. i go through your videos, very nicely explained.. keep it up..👍

Cool video. Just bought the 49 key and I think I made the right choice. Thanks!

this was a nice review. I was planning on buying this keyboard, thanks for sharing your opinion on it. And I do prefer the 49 key version for the same reason as you.

Your voice is so easy to listen to! And then I read the comments saying the same thing and I'm like "Good, so I'm not alone" 😭 Great video!

I just love your lessons..and i also bought novation launchkey 49 ...i just loved it..❤️❤️ its awesome keyboard

Great video man. You have really great english as well. Lol You have a good lecturing accent. Thanks a lot.

Awesome thank you for the review & your time ! Cheers .

Thanks for the review bro this helps a lot 🔥🔥💫

Ordered one today, 49 key. I will use it with Logic Pro too. Hope to hear new videos on this keyboard controller soon.

Terrific review and video. Thanks!

A very informative review (he sold me!) by a wonderful person. Someone who'd make a good friend.

Very professional and educational review. Good job!

Thanks for the awesome review and demo!

Awesome ! Please make more tutorials on Novation Launchkey.

Awesome! Thanks for this.

Very informative video, thank you.

nice Review man, TKS for share!

Loved all the info. Thank you.

Awesome controller nice presentation big like!👍👍👍

It's a good looking box. Great line.

I bought a 49 key this weekend. I agree with you on your "desktop" comment. Probably the only downsides are that Ableton downloads were pretty slow (that could be due to holiday traffic volume) and the keys are spring loaded and unweighted. But, for the price, I didn't expect weighted keys.

Great review. Thank you.

I wish I could understand him better.He still explains things well though.I bought a launchkey 49 too, and I like it.

Awesome video! Thanks Reuben :)

thanks for the video brother , i liked the song you just made :D

Thanks man, I have the AKAI MPK mini mk2 and am thinking of upgrading to one of these for additional board range and great compatibility / ease of use with other music kit

the best review ... thanks Chng please keep it up for us

Cool & great video. Thax bro. I appreciate!

ur a man with grace ,,awesome,,god bless u brother

You're pretty cool. The little tune is still stuck in my short term memory.

what a good video thanks for the review

Thanks for the video bro, it really helped me a lot & does this keyboard has after touch option ? or else which midi controller I have to buy ?

This dude is so informative, can actually play and is handsome, subbed. btw what vst you used for strings?

Great video man!

Best review keep going man

Wonderful explained bro...

can you help me how to set up about the in put and out because i didn't understand about that . what suppose to be input and out put please .

excellent video.

Great presentation

please my sustain on novationa launchkey 49 is not working can you help..is there a speacial settings to get it working or no??thank you in advance..cheers

Very nice summary. I was hoping to learn how to CHANGE THE PITCH BEND from a whole step to an octave...Is that possible?

Hi bro, great review and video, can i ask which studio monitors do you have?

Well explained . Thanks.

Very cool! Thank you.

can the faders be modified to control expression, cut off filters and also vibrato for the strings?

Great Video! I'm just starting out with Midi and Daw and was wondering if this keyboard is sufficient enough for my needs as a new user? I've noticed that Novation have brought out the SL Mk3 which is tempting, but what will I really gain from spending an extra 300 pounds on the Mk3? Thanks. 👍

Great video, I just bought it and it’s working great with Ableton, although when I use it with Logic I’m having a little latency, do you know how to correct it?

hey nice video. really simple explanation which is what I needed. However, I notice that there are several midi controllers. Do you know the difference between this version and the novation impulse 49? I'm just like your video, play some synths, some bass lines, drums and my guitar to create a mix of indie pop/rock/electronic music (e.g. mix of the national and porter robinson to give you an example).

Thank you for this. Were you using a VST piano plugin or was that a standard piano sound from your DAW?

I don't have midi model name in module list and unable to add . can u help me ?

Just got the 61, honestly I don't have a clue how to use it with ablelton, I can connect it to it but can't play anything?

Nice video. I am now shopping for a 49/61 keys midi-controller. How does this compare with the M-Audio Oxygen 49 in terms of the key touch. Thank you.

Hello! Does anybody knows how is it possible to assign in my launchkey 49mk2 commands like "copy" "paste" to pads in Studio one 3? i have assigned buttons from 1 to 9 but assigning the pads would be great!

the ableton live lite which comes with the launchkey is the version which is only for 30 days?

Nice. Think I'm getting the 49 key. I use Studio One and assume that the protocol for mapping it isn't much more than what you've shown. Am I correct?

Hello thank you for your videos they are always very useful. I have a question for you and it would be super cool if you could answer me. I am an amateur in the field of electronic music, I just bought a launchkey 49 novation. I plugged it into my laptop dell e6410 with fl studio 20 demo for the moment. it lights up and the studio recognizes it in midi seting and it comes out well the sounds that I put in the pattern. my only problem is that I am forced to press very very hard on the keys of the keyboard so that the sound is loud enough to be heard, the less you hit the more the sound is weak and the more you hit the sound is strong and it's very annoying because it prevents me from playing because you have to really hard to type a sound "normal" (I have good speakers). my question; HOW TO MAKE THE SOUND ALWAYS THE SAME LEVEL TO NOT HAVE TO TAPER VERY STRONG ON THE KEYBOARD? OR MUST I SET THIS PARAMETER? I thank you in advance for your answer Tom

can you assign the faders to work with a B3 organ VSTi to control the drawbars?

Would this piano work for perfoming live without a computer and if no how much does the computer do/

I have been using this keyboard for 2 years. Recently midi sound in my daw goes very little. Even sound is not heard. Then i restart my pc and it sounds perfectly but suddenly the sound falls down. I use cubase 5 on windows 10. My sound card is also ok( focusrite). Can you help me?

Hello, can you show me detail in sustain port please? How did you connect it into your DAW?

The mk1 has orange on the bottom and the mk2 had teal on the bottom right?

thanks for this video your the man

is there any back side midi out/in providing by the novation lunchkey?

how did you connect the audio in to the amplifier?thanks..

I like your accent, it's still very understandable luckely! Good video :) Very good review, and I think the song was beautiful.

hi Reuben! cool video ! thanks for the review 🙏🏼 what's the name of the song you play in the video?

nice video

brother is it recomendet to learn to play with 49 keys keyboard... Or i need a 61 keys keyboard....waiting for your answer

I also buy novation launchkey 49 after see your video.

Can you actually change the color of the drum pad? In Logic Pro x

How does the key quality of this keyboard compare to the Novation Impulse keyboard? I'm not sure whether to buy this keyboard as it is cheaper, is it worth spending a bit extra for the Impulse? I am using FL Studio

Huh3. Just bought this exact controller to replace my annoying M Audio Oxygen 49. Got the Surface Controller set up and all ready to go! Really awesome piece of device. Reuben, how do you map the pads to Logic? Is there a website or tutorial on how to do that? My faders, knobs etc are all working. But I heard you said about mapping those drum pads for triggers etc. Thanks.

I recently bought one, nice review. (I wonder what a complicated looking box would look like)

Do macbook air with a very good audio interface produce the same quality of music as that of macbook pro

Yeah. Great! Thanks for the review! Like

Hi! any help on the below issue will be a great help. I have brought Novation Lunchkey61 MK2 almost a year ago, it was working completely fine, but recently I m facing issue with Ableton. The last key i.e 61st key in launchkey is not working with Ableton, Don't know why. However, when I use this keyboard with other music software like synthesia, other than ableton it works completely fine. That means keyboard is completely fine. Have some issue with Ableton. Any help on this please. I m getting frustrated, no other info available online.

Wich one is better: novation launchkey mkII or M audio Oxygen version 4? Is there really a difference between them? Thanks

Could I can play any type of tones in this midi...And how to do it pls bro... Reply to me

Thank you. You did good job .kib going .I ander stand you very much .and I'm Egyptian not even Malaysian .Thanks again . Kib going.
