Launchkey is our intuitive and fully integrated MIDI controller keyboard for creating tracks in Ableton Live and with your external devices. Launchkey is aimed at musicians of all kinds and all abilities. With Launchkey, regardless of your level of experience, you can create and perform music like never before. With its various functions for creating music, all of which can be used independently, Launchkey overcomes creative barriers and expands the musical vocabulary of even the most talented keyboard players. Eight scale modes open up new musical areas for you by transposing the keys you play to notes on the selected scale. To do this, you simply choose a keynote and your preferred key and start playing. Three chord modes transform the keys and pads into an interactive surface for musical exploration, on which every note played is tonally and harmoniously linked. The arpeggiator lets you quickly explore new melodies and find ideas, while the mutate function transforms your patterns into exciting new shapes. User-defined modes simplify the interaction between the controller and software and offer more performance than ever before. With the user-defined modes, which can be programmed via the browser-based software Novation Components, you can configure the behavior of your Launchkey, including control assignments, MIDI routing, pad color and much more. Launchkey 37 [MK3] is equipped with a regular 5-pin MIDI output, which allows you to easily connect to the universe of new and old MIDI devices. In connection with its considerable possibilities in standalone operation, the Launchkey is now the heart of your live or studio setup with or without a computer. Our Launchkey products have always been about flexibility. The MK3 models keep this mantra. Improved, larger velocity sensitive pads provide better control over dynamics. Eight robust knobs bring your software to life. The integration with Ableton Live is wonderfully seamless, with a dedicated button to activate the Capture MIDI function as well as track arm, quantization, click and loop controls to help you move through your session faster than ever before.

The COBALT8X by MODAL Electronics is an 8-voice polyphonic virtual-analog synthesizer with 64 oscillators (8 per voice), a morphable 4-pole ladder filter and a tonal palette that stretches from classic analog sounds to previously unheard soundscapes . If desired, the well-known and popular waveforms from legendary analog synthesizers can be modulated by 40 different algorithms such as crossmodulation, PWM, morphing, bit crushing, etc., and thus transform them into completely new sounds. The sounds produced in this way can be played particularly expressively via its 61 velocity-sensitive keys with aftertouch. Provided a corresponding, optional controller, the COBALT8X also supports MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) for even more expressive performances. The resonant multimode filter offers four different characteristics to choose from and, in the proven MODAL tradition, can be continuously morphed back and forth between different modes. On the modulation side, the COBALT8X offers three envelopes (amp, mod and filter) and 3 LFOs (2 x polyphonic, 1 x global), which can be managed together with all other modulation sources in 8 freely assignable slots and another 4 preset slots. The sounds generated in this way can be animated with 64 steps or 512 notes using the programmable arpeggiator or the polyphonic sequencer. To round off the sounds perfectly, there is also an extensive effects section, in which up to 3 high-quality effects can be used simultaneously. The free MODALapp, which is available for PC, Mac, iOS and Android as well as in the plug-in formats VST3 and AU, enables the convenient editing and management of the sounds on the screen.
