Novation FLkey 61 MIDI Keyboard Controller for FL Studio | Demo and Overview with Bonnie McIntosh

Novation

Description

The Novation FLkey 61 full-size MIDI keyboard controller delivers an immersive, hands-on production workflow built specifically for FL Studio. With extended key range and dedicated control over FL Studio’s Sequencer, Channel Rack, and Mixer, FLkey 61 keeps you focused on creating instead of managing your screen. Expressive keys, responsive pads and creative tools like Scale and Chord modes make it easy to play freely, build arrangements faster and bring ideas to life with confidence.

Stay in the Groove With Fast Beat Programming

Sequencer Mode maps the FLkey 61’s pads directly to FL Studio’s step sequencer, allowing you to program beats, create patterns and refine grooves without touching your mouse. Play rhythms live into the Channel Rack or FPC for a more natural feel, trigger slices in SliceX for creative manipulation, and use Note Repeat to lock in consistent hi-hat rolls and rapid rhythmic patterns.

Hands-on Mixer and Plug-in Control

Bring FL Studio’s Mixer and Channel Rack controls off the screen and into your hands using FLkey 61’s nine faders and eight rotary knobs. Adjust levels, pans and parameters in real time while recording automation as you play. Dedicated transport and workflow controls give you instant access to undo, redo, quantize and metronome functions, while direct preset browsing lets you load and swap Image Line plug-ins quickly with no mouse required.

Creative Modes and Included Software Bundle

Scale Mode keeps every note in key for effortless melodic improvisation, while three Chord Modes let you trigger rich harmonies using a single finger. FLkey 61 also includes a curated software bundle to expand your sound palette, featuring GForce Novation Bass Station, XLN Audio Addictive Keys, the AAS Session Bundle, Spitfire Audio Expressive Strings and Klevgrand DAW Cassette and Roverb. A six-month trial of FL Studio Producer Edition completes the package, giving you everything you need to start producing polished tracks right out of the box.
