Novation is thrilled to announce its newest additions to the FLkey range: the FLkey 49 and FLkey 61. Specially designed to provide a rich, hands-on music production experience for FL Studio users, these models build upon the success of the award-winning FLkey Mini and FLkey 37.
The new offerings provide larger key counts and added features to meet the increasing needs of the FL Studio user community. Collaboratively developed with Image-Line, creators of FL Studio, the FLkey 49 and FLkey 61 enable seamless integration, allowing musicians to maintain their creative flow without reverting to their computers.
What The FLkey 49 and 61 Can Do
Senior Product Manager at Novation, Sam Counihan, shares the excitement, “We’re proud to present the FLkey 49 and FLkey 61. These extensions to our FLkey line provide FL Studio musicians with a broader canvas for their creativity, enhancing their musical journey.” The FLkey 49 and FLkey 61 promise a hands-on music production experience, offering control over FL Studio’s Sequencer, Channel Rack, and Mixer.
The controllers come equipped with Scale and Chord modes for creative play, Sequencer Mode for quick beat programming, and essential buttons for easy access to transport, score log, undo, redo, quantize, and metronome triggers.
Key features of the FLkey 49 and 61 include seamless integration with FL Studio, Mixer and Channel Rack control, step sequencer, pattern pad mode, and instrument control among others. Presets can be browsed directly from the controllers in Image-Line plugins. Furthermore, the controllers are bundled with a range of software from AAS, Spitfire Audio, XLN Audio, Klevgrand, and a 6-month FL Studio Producer Edition trial.
