Advice on midi controllers, a walk in the park with your dad, and drone video? This is definitely a multi-dimensional video. Love it! Go your own way.
LOVE the amount of effort put into this video, thanks Taetro!!
Appreciate that acknowledgment camlee 😁😁😁
this is really awesome. I think you helped me solidify the size I want for my home studio. I really like the scale feature (can't wait for you to do more on that) . Awesome work!!
OMGosh, dude, you're amazing. Thank you so much for these videos. I feel blessed finding your channel. You share all the info I need to survive this pandemic at home alone. All the best to you! :)
This is a great keyboard! I got the 37 key model and it's been doing wonders for me so far. I needed something to replace a keyboard that wouldn't work with Pro Tools, and this did just that and so so so so so so much more! I'm in love with the pads on top along with the familiar and extended amount of keys.
I will say as a warning, for windows users with McAfee, if the driver and Novation Components app aren't in your excluded files in Real Time Scanning, your computer will restart once the keyboard is disconnected, or, in my case, as soon as you plug it in. Once you get past that, you'll be in MIDI heaven.
Overall, it's an absolutely awesome budget keyboard with a slue of included software! I'd recommend it for starters like me
your reviews are so smooth and calming. 😌
You and the loopop video convincing me that this is a solid choice for my first midi controller thanks
Been debating which keyboard controller to get for awhile and this seems dope. The scale mode selection basically being straight off the Circuit is super smart and LOVE that they put a screen on there so you can actually see/confirm selections. Great video and glad to see your studio is coming along!
yes this would be a greeeeat choice. and thanks! New vlog on Monday to see how this progress came along
I'm learning a lot from your videos. Thank you. You're unassuming, yet very knowledgeable and a great teacher.
I own a MK3 37 key one myself. I love it, and the size is perfect for my needs. The larger ones are not as portable, and the smaller ones are too compact for how I like to use it.
thank you Ara!
Man, I kinda forget how much I like your stuff til I'm watching it! 😄 Keep up the great work!
Hey Taetro! I've been watching your videos for a while on how to produce music! And because of it i decided to get my own midi controller and I'm getting the launchkey mini mk3 in a week or two👌🏻😩
TAETRO, thanks for this review, is very helpful for me since i just bought this and it's coming in on tuesday! Now i know for sure what im getting with this nice vid!
Man. I don't know that I'd take that much gear out there, but I've been here for more than 15 years. I'm glad you got out with no issues. Welcome to town.
Thanks Tony! You think it’s a safety issue?
that beat at the end was phenomenal
Just bought one. This was really helpful. Cheers
Cool review, sweet beat and great video directing! You are doing it all. Impressive!! Keep going and sharing.
much appreciated Flavien!
Was thinking of buying this and this is the perfect info video for me. Thanks, love the way you set up the video and more importantly the launch key! Keep up the vids, you just got a new sub my friend. ❤
Bah! I was already excited for mine to come and this video now has me stoked! Thanks, bro.
woooo thank you aweston!
You are by far my favorite Lo- Fi Artist!!!Amazing location and Cool Vibe on the Keys 🎹-Nice!!!!
Great video production quality! The outside scenes are beautiful. I bought the Mini MK III on your recommendation and using it with Ableton now. Really loving it.
Thank you Maurice! Stoked that your having fun with the LK mini!
Love your videos. I have zero music experience and bought an Mk3 mini to learn off of thanks to you.
Amazing. Excited for your journey
This video helped me make my buying decision. Stoked to get this controller. Thanks boss 🙏
Just got one, very happy with it. This review helped me taking the decision. Thanks!
awesome Jorge - happy music making!
I’m getting one too!
Hi Taetro, I just bough one today, I am just new to your video collections, I was searching for tutorials on Launchkey37 on internet, search results led me to your video collections, nice to meet you, really you are cool, loooooooooooks like I am starting to become a fan of you....
just bought a 37 version. thx for the videos. 🤗
Another awesome video. Super informative. Thanks Taetro.
Thanks Nick!!!
Loving the vlog format you've had going on.
I’ve been experimenting a bit. Thanks for noticing!
Just got mine and I have a lot to learn. This is very inspiring. I need a tutor.
Love your work bro! Wondering if you would be able to do a mid price 49 key keyboard comparison like the launchkey 49, Arturia essential 49, and native instruments a49 :)
Awesome vids dude very informative, keep them coming
Glad you like them!
Back after 2 years to say thanks for the vid definitely was the right choice
Great video ! Helped me a lot !!! Thanks and hello from Paris.
Glad it helped!
That's amazing... Good luck with the controller Nick
Thank you Gabu!
Hi hope you are well. There is a lot to learn and enjoy. Thank you.
Appreciate this great review!! Placing an order today!
Have fun!
it's fantastic!
I'm so glad I didn't get mk2 back then; now I'm definitely getting this one
Yessss good patience
@@Taetro I was waiting for this to como out to !! On the other hand fhanks for your videos! I have learned a lot from them.
This would be the one I gonna buy. I like how to works with Ableton, which I want to learn, and other DAWs too.
yo thanks for making this! Definitely helped me make my decision to buy the 37 launchkey mk3. Using it with ableton is so easy control! Cheers
Epic! Happy music making
The new studio is 🔥🔥🔥🔥love the background display with all the controllers!
Thank youuu!
Hi, great video ! I have a couple of questions:
1. How does this stack up against the keystep 37, in terms of keys ?
2. Can I control a MIDI instrument with the pads instead of the keys ?
3. Do the knobs also send information via the MIDI out ?
Great video! Thank you
Please make a follow up to this video! Love your breakdowns
Dope vid. Great shots.
You make it look so easy! I just love your videos. Would you say this is a good controller for beginners? Also is there a video for your set up when taking out side?
Thanks a lot for this video, quite informative :)
14:50 bro the video quality is so smooth
thank you Philip!! Much appreciated!
Really good show. Thanks very much.
this is a very nice review man
Loved the video! I was hesitant to get the MKII 49 key back in Feb in hopes they would update it. Did not expect to have a 37 key option and I'm thrilled! I'm looking at getting this for my first keyboard but also interested in the Launchkey Mini MKIII. Which would you recommend?
Awesome video as always, and I really look forward to seeing what else this thing can do!
It depends if you like full size keys or if you prefer a keyboard that fits in your bag!
I just got the 49. It really is a great keyboard. If it had aftertouch, it'd be perfect!
Hey Taetro, ended up getting the Novation 49 mk3. 👍🏻
I love the new Studio!!!!
Thanks Manuel!!
So cool! Thank you!🌹
Thanx so much and great your alien ring!
Hey thanks for the great video and review! I’m considering buying my first midi keyboard and I want some portability. 37 keys sounds like a sweet spot to me. How does the quality of the Keybed compare to that of Arturia MiniLab Mk2? Any comment would be helpful. Thanks!
Can't Wait I Gonna Buy This 37 🙄🤩🤩
Such a useful video. I've had an Akai mpk mini on order for 2 months, but this has got me thinking! As a piano player, I'm attracted to the idea of 37 keys instead of 25. Plus I use Ableton. 🤔
It would seem, with the added octave, you could set it up so it plays 2 octaves on the "lower octaves", thus getting full chords while maintaining portability.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!!
thank you Diane!
I think i'm going for the 25 MK3 version. Looks awesome and worth the extra bucks compared with the Mini.
Great video as always! I was religiously waiting for launchkey news since the launckey 61s were out of stock, i waited so long that i bought an arturia essentials 61 and it came yesterday! Knew i shouldve waited longer!
Send it back and take this.
the Arturia will still get you far! Work with what you’ve got and maybe get a launchpad to add in the missing functionality 🤔
@@LukezyM I actually just did lol
Wow thanks for a great video, this Launchkey seems fantastic, I was about to buy the Mini 25 but this one really worth the price, I like the Midi Output in the back as it goes great on my Motu M2 interface.
thanks Javier. Sounds perfect for you!
Wow! Terrific spot for performing. I did really enjoy this video ;) regards from London
thanks so much Lino!
Sick production
Fantastic video
Thanks for mentioning the “less waste and good for the environment” benefits
Thanks a lot man! The video from zoo/nature is inspirating!
just got mine because of this video. thank you very much! :D
Awesome. Happy beat making!
@@Taetro thanks! and hey i have a question about live looping in session view, How do you auto-arm the tracks as you scroll through them? i saw others asking the same but without any answer, i know that you might be busy, so i would really appreciate it if you could help me out
KUBBO.MUSIC go to this video: czcams.com/video/iAaxuEl_X8Y/video.html and you’ll find 2 links in the description about how to do it
I think il get this! Thanks for the superb information...hoping to see more soon😊
sweeeet. Thanks for watching!
@@Taetro i wanna buy this and an ipad as im on a budget. What about the registration process bro? Do i have to do it on a mac/pc or on the ipad itself. Im very new to these and it can be quite confusing for me. Thanks alot man!🙌🙏
Nice video I'd love to know what samples you where using to make those beats? Also, your brave man walking around LA with your gear in the open like that bro! Awesome vids, im a fan thanks!
Thank you 🙏
Nice vid bro! Looks a nice controller
Thanks! And it is 😁
Hey taetro, do u have any backpack recommendations that will fit this keyboard? Thanks for this vid btw!
Great video and track thanks 👌
Thank you Sliviz!
Man... this video was in my recommended feed. I was about to get pissed that there was a new Launchkey out, since I just bought one yesterday. But then I noticed the video is 3 years old :P
More performance only videos please! Even if you get less views man they’re great.
New studio? Nice video as always
thank you Jeremia! yeah I’ve been vlogging about setting it up. New vlog every Monday!
Thank you very much; you earned my sub kind soul!! 💜
Thanks for subbing!
Can you plz demonstrate how well can we control and configure this Launchkey with NKS plugins of Native Instruments. What feature would we be missing? It would be amazing coz I am torn between the two. NI has amazing sound design plugins and integration but Launchkey is amazing for learning, pads and Ableton. If we can control most of NKS compatible plugins through Launchkey then it would be just amazing. Hope they also add endless encoders in the next update.
Feel like midi controllers are the one thing that it's worth to get the newest version. I have the 49 key mk2. Love having the rgb pads on the mk2 but the built in functions have improved so much in the newest gen controllers. Can't wait to see how they keep changing! Hope the new apartment is becoming home!!
thank you anthony!
yes as long as they continue to improve the products!
@@Taetro Yes, definitely! No problem, can't wait to see the new vlog!
Nice video! What brand and model is that mic you're using? Sounds very nice.
This is the best keyboard at this price point. If it had endless encoders it would have been a clear winner.
Hey Taetro, video incredible as always! 👏🏼Is this product not available yet? I clicked the link in the description but can’t find the launch key 37 anywhere 🤔
Thanks very much Cultivar - new products usually take a bit to hit all online retailers, I also think it sold out on Novations site 😅
So many people making videos similar to T.’s but the vibe here is just dope..🔥🔥🔥 enjoying this Channel. I’m a Musician at heart but Truck Driving is how I make a living for now which I also enjoy, what can anyone recommend for making music on the move since I live in a very small space, just wondering if y’all had any suggestions. Thanks 🙏🏽..
If you have a laptop you can take on the road, I'd recommend the Launchkey Mini MK3 controller to get you started! That's like the little brother to the controllers in this video. Great price (~$110 USD), amazing functionality (pads, keys, function buttons, etc.), small form factor (great for travel), and it comes with Ableton Live Lite, which is a free (but very capable) music production software. I think you'll be able to get some pretty good mileage (sorry, couldn't resist the pun) with just those few things! Cheers and good luck 👍
Slightly off topic but that synth patch is fire 💯
As a newbie in the keyboard world, I was looking into this one. And since I don't know much about these overall, I was wondering if it would play nice with Reaper?
Cool controller. Also sick beat.
thank you Sammy!
I saw your ADSR course for launchkey. Great stuff. Can you share your beat repeat ableton custom plugin that you used on the master channel? Or do a video on how to make our own?
Can you do a video comparing the 37 and 25 key versions with the mini? I'm not fully sure what these bigger ones can do that the mini can't.
Main differences of non-mini keyboards:
- more dedicated buttons ( so less use of shift key needed)
- lcd display
- scale modes
- scale chords
- pitch /modulation wheels
Nice review sir, by the way you were lucky to not have any safety issues in that "park". Man that is L.A. take care bud.
Great vid. Can you use these functions with GarageBand?
I'm in the market for a 49-key right now, and I had just made my mind up on the Alesis Vi49, because I previously owned the Vi25, and I liked the semi-weighted keys and the 4x4 drum pad layout.
But.. I was comparing it against the older launchkey model. The Mk3 49 looks really nice! I'm torn now, because I like my semi-weighted keys and pads laid out in a 4x4 square for drumming. But this looks better in every other way..
Help? XD
If you’re an Ableton user the workflow features alone make it worth it, however if semi weighted keys are important - figure out HOW important that is to you
This is a good 37, neither too wide or short tho. Perfect indeed.
Yes!
Great video. Can i do incremental program change with the buttons? i m aware that i can map each pad to send one program change. but this doesnt allow me to scroll all the presets in synths with hundreds of presets. i dont want to use a knob to scroll through presets. not precise.
i love your blade runner shirt
Thanks.
Great video.. Just bought this 37.. Now stuck with the assign midi for knob area.. Would love if you do tutorial for I using studio one, 4✌️
I don’t use studio one unfortunately 😔 but maybe you could try the Ableton Live trial?
Do you have or could you possibly do a video for the launchkey 61 mk3 setup in FL Studio?? I’m sure the 37 key setup would be similar but I can’t figure out how to control the transport functions (like play, stop, etc) through the pads. My old MK2 could seamlessly control all those functions no problems
Thanks for this video.
Do you know some controler like this to play live without computer, just controler direct to a speaker?
Thanks.
Can you assign externally pre-recorded sound samples to the MIDI keys and play them at different pitches across the keys?
Thanks :)
