Novation FLkey 61 – Full-Size Creative Control for FL Studio
The Novation FLkey 61 is a full-size MIDI keyboard controller built for deep, hands-on music production in FL Studio. With seamless integration and a suite of intuitive controls, it bridges the gap between your ideas and your music—no mouse required.
Equipped with eight rotary knobs and nine faders, the FLkey 61 lets you fine-tune volume, panning, and automation directly from the keyboard. Pattern Pad mode allows you to select and edit patterns effortlessly, while Sequencer Mode maps the pads to FL Studio’s step sequencer—ideal for building beats with speed and feel. Want more expression? Use the pads to trigger FPC and SliceX, or activate Note Repeat for precise rhythmic effects.
Stay Inspired with Scale & Chord Modes
Creative features like Scale Mode help keep your melodies on point, ensuring every note fits your chosen key. With three Chord Modes, you can play full harmonies with a single finger—perfect for quickly sketching progressions or exploring new musical textures.
