Streamline your creative process

Every facet of Novation’s FLkey controller is purpose-built to streamline your creative process in FL Studio, from the velocity-sensitive keys to the built-in plug-in browsing directly from your keyboard. As much as we love the immense power of modern software’s music-making tools at Sweetwater, it’s hard to match the sheer versatility and immediacy of a physical keyboard, pads, faders, and knobs — the FLkey’s seamless integration into FL Studio’s architecture is sure to unlock your creative potential!

Scale Mode for creative freedom

One of the controller’s most exciting features is its onboard Scale Modes. We all use modes, whether we realize it or not. With the FLkey at your service, you can lay down a smokin’ Mixolydian bass line or rock out a sweet Dorian mode solo without getting bogged down in music theory. (Of course, knowing a little theory never hurt any musician!) Scale Modes transpose the keys you play into notes of the scale you’ve chosen. Just select your root note and the scale you want, and then play. No matter how accomplished a keyboardist you are, the FLkey will expand your musical vocabulary.

Connect your external gear

While the FLkey might be designed for use with FL Studio, it also offers a versatile control service for your external gear with a 5-pin MIDI DIN connection. Hardware synths and other devices are a perfect fit for the FLkey’s smooth key action and assignable controls, allowing you to facilitate everything from either your computer or a standalone setup.
