Oh man, I loved FL Studio back in the day, back when I had time to learn and use it 😂 I would have been all over this
Thanks man, just got 37, it's awesome, no latency or issues at all, just plug it in and works amazing. Image line are awesome, and thanks heaps for this tutorial!!!
This is an excellent video - the best I have seen thus far!
Thank you 🤩 very helpful for the first steps
having a sustain pedal in combination with the scale chords on the pads is amazinggggg
what sustain pedal do you use? I've read that most are not compatible with the FLkey
Been four months since you posted a video. Hope all is well and have a safe and great Christmas & New Year’s!
This is an awesome video thanks mate!
awesome ,best vido about fl key37
Just waited 3 years to get a key, I found by accident in a random music store one FLKEY 37 today, Just Bought it !! Already love it.
I wish they made a bigger version of this keyboard
I was thinking this too. A 49 and 61 key. Those two models with 9 motorized faders.
Out now
They do . The 49 and 61 now😊
no u can buy it ,fl 49 and 61 are out lol
Good run down thanks heaps
I just picked up a 37. I will be referring to this A LOT
great tut
I was going to get the 25 key but it’s too small this the ideal size and thanks for the good demonstration.
Great 👍 tutorial
Thank you
Hello I bought FLKey 37 and I want to know how can I make switch presets buttons work on third party plugins, thank you
Thnks bro best ❤
Navigation Mode - ([...] Button) How do I use the navigation to browse samples and presets?
From the manual
The navigation keys are useful for stepping through samples in the Browser and pressing Enter (the
green pad) to load your sample to the Channel Rack.
Great video. You really help me with the functions of the step sequencer thankyou.
Good stuff man
Thank you, i just got this keyboard today and want to learn how to make music.
Any idea how to use the pads for performance mode???
Looks like the audio timing from pressing the pads and keys is accurate/instant for you, but with my setup the audio is delayed. Any ideas for fixing this? Thanks.
Good Look!
Hey guys I have a question if I wanted to buy one of you guys products do you do shipment to other countries other than UK?
How can I get the drum pads back to playing each individual sound instead of notes?
Stupid question: How do you make an arpeggio at 6:58 ? I couldn't get it to work... does it have to be a specific pack for this or does it work with any pack? When I hit the keyboard, it just plays the notes as usual...
some body knows whre can i find a tutorial for the custom pot section in novation components?
good lookin bro
can you use this to chop samples ??
Excellent video, I just picked up FL Keys 49 this weekend, after watching video. What's the glowing colorful glass vase, on your table called? Thanks for sharing...
Its called a lava lamp
Do I need an adapter of sorts to connect the FLkey37 to my MacBook Pro m1? The cord that comes with it is not compatible with the usb c ports on my MacBook. What do I need?
Does your modulation wheel go all the way down to 0 because mine doesnt
Anyone found a way to utilise this with serum? I’m thinking for serum I don’t use it that specifically but rather keep it for more general control
how do i stop samples on pads from overlapping each other when triggered... thanks im using the fl keys 37
1:17 this alone is mind blowing asf
Excellent overview video. It really helps me to understand the functions of my new FL Key 37, since the owners manual is not the best
Thank you for this excellent video 😀🎵
Great to hear it helped!
How well does the mini work with third party plugins? Can i at the very least take advantage of the pitch and velocity wheel and also play the notes out on the keys without any delay or worry?
Late reply here but yes, I use flkey with vital and it works great
Can you make one using the FL key mini? Many of the controls are a bit different so i wasnt able to apply much
I hope you guys will answer, cuz no 1 does..:(
How to make aftertouch working on fl keys? I know it has it cuz its in the settings of the midi.
My FL key channel rack doesn’t work when pressing shift. Is everyone on Version 0052? Do I need to update?
Hi, I have a question. For some reason if I hit record and then play, whatever I play does not get put into the channel rack. Am I doing something wrong?
When i try to do this, it doesn't place the notes I'm playing into the Channel Rack.
Wondering a few things-
1. What's the max number of keys you can use in the fixed/user chords. The manual doesn't say, but the example uses 3, and everyone I see showing this feature only does triads too. Can you do larger 2 handed chords with your own voicings?
2. Is it possible to control more than just the first 8 of whatever (channels, tracks, etc) with the knobs? Like can you shift it down/over to control the next block of 8 or something? I know it has buttons to move one by one through the channel rack or mixer track, but I'm guessing that by itself doesn't change what the knobs are mapped to. If you can only control the first 8 without diving into custom settings and having to manually switch between them etc it sounds cool but not that useful. A lot of times most of my first 8 channels/tracks will be mostly drums/perc stuff and I'm barely getting into the other sounds
Hey, I know its a little late, but incase you haven't found the answer yet.
1. I just tested it out, I pressed 10 different keys over 2 octaves and recorded all of them. So you can use this with a lot more than just triads.
2. Yes, you can control more than just the first 8. When using the mixer, you have the mixer left and right buttons at the top which allow you to scroll through the different tracks you have on your mixer. So if I were to press the mixer right button, I would go from controlling tracks 1-8 to controlling tracks 9-16. This works the same for the channel rack. Obviously, you can't control more than 8 tracks/channels at a time, but you are NOT limited to controlling only the first 8. This doesn't work for plugins though. In plugins you are limited only to the first 8. You also cant control 3rd party plugins like Serum or Massive unless you map them out yourself using the Custom pot mode.
Hope this helps :)
@@vangeltone8115helped tremendously.. Thanx
@@vangeltone8115yo you can use the plugin mode with 3rd party plugins without mapping them yourself, if someone else mapped them beforehand that is haha
there is a post in the image line forum where you can download a file with custom mappings for the FLkey for many well known plugins like 200 if i remember correctly
but might have to watch a youtube video where to put the file
I think the post was by rd3d2 and called something like "huzzah! complete support for third party plugins for flkey" something along those lines, you'll probably find it by searching for him
he also linked a youtube video where to put the file
WHEN I YOU GO INTO SCALE CHORD MODE, @4:58, IT'S JUST PLAYING THE SAME NOTE AND SOME PADS DON'T PLAY ANYTHING. AM I DOING SOMETHING WRONG?
Just received my FL Key 49 yesterday and it isn't working right at all. I follow along with you and the shift Channel rack isn't doing anything????
how did you do the arp on the piano keys like that? note repeat only works on pads for me, what am i doing wrong?
He is doing repeat settings with the keys, you can only repeat with pad I think. I can't otherwise too
Sir me ek chiz se parisan hu midi ko dhere se dabaya to kam sound jor se dabaya to jyada sound aata hai isko kaise thik kare plz batao sab barabar sound aana chahiye sir plz
Is this controller compatible with apple operating system mojave 10.14 ?
thus cuul
I am trying to figure out why when I use not repeat, it just randomly changes speed, like it follows no set pattern. I haveit at 1/16th,, but its more like .. .. ... .... .. ... ... .... . Like its not consistent at all
The FLKEY LED is divided into blue and pink, and no matter which key you press, the sound will only be the same.Why is that?When I plug in the drum in FLstudio, it is colorless and does not get colored.
Perfect demonstration. What’s the price tag on this machine?
200
@@UwU-se5vh Paid like $105 today at Guitar Center. (Omitting warranty.)
i paid 220€ in germany (from a german vendor)
I'd love this if it had endless encoders 😭
Yo no puedo poner shift y después colocar Drums me aparecen otros colores pero del otro lado y no dónde está en Chanel Rack
Anyone figure out how to play the FPC with the pads?
Want to know this too 🤙
What is better for fl studio the launchkey or flkey?
Fl key
Where are you guys..? My fav reviewers gone ghost….? Dat sux
❤️🎹
Are the pads and keys velocity sensitive?
Yes
@@JesseLaBatte Preciate you!
" Just because no track would be self respected without vocal over the top "........ whaaaaaaat ? Are you just a little in music production man ? Very good video and tutorial by the way i really enjoyed it and it helped me a lot.
Very sad that the knobs are not compatible with other plugins. E.g. link to controller... how can you not add such an important function
Can you not control third party VST with it?
Ok just got to that statement in the vid, was literally about a to order one of these before hearing that… I wonder if they’ll add it in later with an update!
@@Valliant2007 u can only shift and custom mode , and uc an learn to midi lol
For Note Repeat...I have to hold Note Repeat if I want to change rate from 1/4 to 1/8 etc...in the video he doesn't have to...I'm confused
bro, same. Have you fixed yours?
Found the issue hahaha. You just gotta record first then go nuts on the rate realtime. cheers, brother.
no uploads?
My shift button doesn’t work anymore. It only highlights scale chord, user chord and custom. And my play stop record doesn’t work anymore. Not sure what happened but it was working good before. Please help someone
Unfortunately, I have the same problem (since I connected another midi keyboard). I've been looking for a solution for hours now. Maybe you need to update FL Studio?!
@@Lord_K_Original I got in touch with someone from Novation, the only solution I had was to uninstall and reinstall FL studio. You won’t lose anything since everything already saved to the computer/SD.
I am so pissed off, i bought this keyboard used and nothing shows up like in the video. When i press shift i the channel rack doesnt light up and isnt selectable.
Did you ever figure this issue out? I’m having the same
Can I only use this in FL studio or does this also work in Logic Pro x?
you'd lose most of the features if you only use it in logic. only the midi keyboard would work but you could manually assign knobs etc
Imean this is a cool way to start projects but I couldn’t imaging trying to get detailed with this keyboard
Has anyone ever did a speed test between the keyboard 🎹 & the traditional way...🤔🤔🤔
First lesson of the guide, Press shift then channel rack. Doesn't light up XD
how tf you start recording ?
when I click metronome it doesn’t even do anything
131k from how much initial investment? 100k Maybe?
I had this in my cart and ready to go until I learn that it's only for FL studio and can't be used in other DAW's.
There's another version of Novation Launchkey that isn't for FL Studio. It's the exact same controller, just not configured for FL Studio
I bought the 37 key one ($200 at GuitarCenter) and did not realise you need at least the Fruity edition of FL ($99) for this to truly be plug & play. But if you want to record audio you need the Producer edition ($200)...so basically I would need twice as much as I had planned....
I will be returning mine not just cause of the added cost but moreso bc 37 keys is not enough for me personally. The construction and overall quality of the controller is very nice IMO, although this is the first midi controller I've ever purchased so take that for what it's worth.
Couple things worth noting.
While it *does* seemingly cost you twice as much, FL does come with free lifetime updates whereas other DAWs will require a new purchase every major update.
It IS designed for FL, but when you register it, it'll come with 6 months of the producer edition (the $200 version) for free..BUT
If you like the controller itself and would prefer Ableton etc as your DAW, there is the near same exact Novation Launchkey, but you might wanna check out the Arturia Keylab 49 as well in the price range.
@@AggroNoobs yep I exchanged it today for the Launchkey 61 which comes with Ableton Live Lite. So far I love having 61 vs 37 keys, but the sounds in Ableton Lite sound terrible. But I guess that's an easy fix of just finding another cheap DAW.
More comparisons:
The drum pads on the FLkey have a slight edge as they seem more premium and are slightly larger. I'm still learning all the different settings, but the FLkey had a note repeat button whereas the Launchkey has an arpeggiator (I guess it does the same thing more or less). Lastly of course the Launchkey has faders as well.
Update:
I take back what I said about the sounds being terrible, I just didn't know about all the different adjustments you could make to the tone, attack, dry/wet, etc you could do.
Also I see why ppl say they prefer controllers with infinite dials/pots bc when switching between instruments the mapped controls to effects and what not will snap to the current position of the pots that you had them in for the last track if you try to adjust them.
I bought the keyboard yesterday and couldn’t use it properly cus I only had FL studio 12.. So yea to upgrade will cost me more I will return mines tomorrow and stick with what I got already 🤷🏿
You get FREE LIFETIME UPDATES. just update your FL Studio.
Pay attention that “Scale Mode” is serious
"Press shift and then channel rack" - does nothing on my end.
did u figure out? i need help
@@Deal2Respect yeah in my case I hadn't updated FL to the newest version, and apparently it only works with the newest version.
@@macw.7686 it works with 20.9 and 21
They should also make a 61 keys version of this controller...
Broooo do any of you use this !!!! Quit teaching when you don’t know wtf is going on!!! U cannot just hit the red record button and it fills in!!!!!!!!!! There’s like 6 diff options ahead of this….. I’m really trying to learn bro
Do you know if you can load drum samples onto the Flkey37 to be used independently while disconnecting to FL Studio?
Very informative video, however, it would be a bit clearer if you spoke through your mouth rather than your nose.
