Novation, a renowned British music equipment manufacturer known for its synthesizers, MIDI controllers, and audio interfaces. Founded in 1992, Novation gained early recognition with the release of the Bass Station synthesizer, which offered a versatile analogue mono synth experience. Over the years, Novation has continued to innovate, producing popular instruments such as the Supernova series, which became staples of electronic music production in the late 1990s and early 2000s due to their lush, polyphonic sound and powerful modulation capabilities.

Today, Novation is particularly well-known for its Launchpad series of grid-based controllers, which revolutionized live electronic music performance and production workflows by offering a hands-on interface for triggering clips and samples in software like Ableton Live. The company’s Launchkey MIDI keyboards and Circuit groove-boxes also provide versatile tools for musicians and producers, combining deep integration with DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations) and standalone capabilities for on-the-go creativity. Novation’s commitment to user-friendly design, affordability, and innovation has cemented its place as a key player in the electronic music world.

Controller

This product functions as a MIDI controller, designed to give you hands-on control over your digital audio workstation (DAW) and virtual instruments. With features like velocity-sensitive keys, customisable pads, knobs, and sliders, this controller allows for expressive performance and precise control, making it a versatile tool for studio production or live performances.

Keyboard

A music keyboard is a versatile musical instrument consisting of a set of keys or buttons that produce different pitches when pressed. Keyboards come in various forms, including acoustic pianos, electric pianos, synthesizers, and MIDI controllers. They allow musicians to play melodies, harmonies, and chords with ease, making them fundamental tools in a wide range of musical genres and settings. Keyboards often feature additional controls such as knobs, sliders, and buttons for manipulating sound parameters, and they can be connected to other devices like computers or sound modules for expanded functionality. Whether used for classical, pop, jazz, or electronic music, the keyboard’s intuitive layout and expressive capabilities make it an essential component of modern music production and performance.

Launchkey

The Launchkey is a series of MIDI controller keyboards developed by Novation, aimed at enhancing music production and live performance. Designed to integrate seamlessly with major DAWs like Ableton Live, the series offers various sizes ranging from 25 to 88 keys. It features velocity-sensitive keys, allowing for expressive playing, and a set of RGB backlit pads, perfect for triggering clips or beats. In addition, the Launchkey includes a range of assignable knobs, faders, and transport controls, providing tactile access to critical parameters within the DAW.

One standout feature is the integrated arpeggiator, which offers versatile rhythmic patterns, along with a Scale Mode that locks the keys to a chosen scale, simplifying the process of playing in key. Launchkeys are particularly known for their user-friendly layout and portability, making them a favourite among musicians, producers, and live performers. Whether in a studio or on stage, the Launchkey series delivers a flexible and powerful solution for MIDI control.

Midi

MIDI, which stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a technical standard that enables electronic musical instruments, computers, and other devices to communicate with each other. It allows for the transmission of musical data such as note messages, control signals, and synchronization commands between compatible devices. MIDI data does not contain actual audio; instead, it contains instructions for generating sound, controlling parameters, and sequencing musical events. This versatile protocol has revolutionized music production by facilitating seamless integration between different hardware and software components, enabling musicians, producers, and composers to create, manipulate, and perform music with unprecedented flexibility and precision
