Launchkey Mini’s controls are non-assignable. This makes Launchkey Mini very simple to congure
and use.
1
Keyboard – 25-note synth-action mini-key keyboard.
2
8 x rotary controls, providing DAW/MIDI control.
3
16 x velocity-sensitive launch pads. These can be used to trigger sounds (e.g., drums) in
your music software and provide other functions in some DAWs and the Novation iPad apps.
4
2 x round buttons. These can be used for custom functions in the apps, or in your DAW.
5
InControl button; this switches the operating mode of the rotary controls and launch pads
between InControl and Basic Mapping Mode. It can also be used to set Launchkey Mini’s
MIDI channel. See page 13.
6
Octave + / – buttons – shift the keyboard ‘up’ or ‘down’ in octave steps. Pressing the two
buttons together cancels the octave shift.
7
Track I / H buttons – use these to change tracks in your music software or to switch
between Novation iPad apps (I switches to the Launchkey app, H to the Launchpad app).
8
K and J buttons - use these to select different rows of pads in the Novation Launchpad
app. They also provide various control functions in some DAWs.
9
USB port – Micro-B USB connector compatible with USB 1.1, 2.0 or 3.0. Connect
Launchkey Mini to a USB port on your computer or iPad using the USB cable supplied.
10
Kensington security slot – secure your Launchkey Mini to a convenient structural point
if desired. Please see http://www.kensington.com/kensington/us/us/s/1704/kensington-
