What can you do with FLkey?
-
Lay down beats
FLkey’s 16 RGB pads are perfect for step sequencing in the Channel Rack and finger drumming with FPC, Slicex, or Fruity Slicer. -
Find inspiration fast
Easily lay down melodies, progressions, and patterns with built-in Scale and Chord modes, plus a powerful arpeggiator — no chord packs needed. -
Sequence ideas
Select and trigger samples in the Channel Rack directly from FLkey 49’s pads. They're colour coded to make it clear which instrument you're controlling. -
Build tracks with Patterns
Create and duplicate Patterns with a dedicated layout on FLkey 49’s colour-coded pads. -
Mix and finish tracks
Fine-tune levels, sweep filters, dial in effects, and more. Everything is mapped to the eight knobs and nine precision faders. -
Go beyond FL Studio
Connect synths and other MIDI hardware via the full-size MIDI Out port, craft custom layouts with Components, or control other DAWs with Mackie HUI support. -
Control NKS plugins
Native Kontrol Standard creates a two-way connection between FLkey and plugins from Native Instruments and hundreds of other brands.
Semi-weighted keys
FLkey 49’s four octaves of great-feeling, velocity-sensitive keys give you all the space you need to capture ideas faster, and with more feeling, than ever before. You can even split or layer the keyboard to play two instruments at once.
Responsive RGB pads
FLkey 49’s two rows of pads illuminate to show sequences, match FL Studio plugin interfaces, and more. And with velocity sensitivity, they're ideal for finger drumming or playing expressive melodies and chords.
All the controls you need
Skip the setup with automatically mapped control over FL Studio’s mixer, Channel Rack, and plugins from nine precision faders and eight endless encoders that pick up exactly where you left off.
Everything you need, where you need it
FLkey 49 features dedicated buttons that place essential FL Studio functions directly on your keyboard: control playback and recording, access the Score Log, undo/redo actions, and switch between Pattern and Song mode. And the crisp OLED display offers visual feedback in the same place.
