Professional MIDI Control for FL Studio Producers

The Novation FLkey 49 MIDI Keyboard Controller is a full-sized powerhouse built for producers who demand complete control in FL Studio. Designed to integrate seamlessly with Image-Line’s flagship DAW, this 49-key controller gives you hands-on access to your most essential tools—from the Mixer and Step Sequencer to plug-in controls and transport functions. Whether you’re programming drums, mixing tracks, or recording melodies, FLkey 49 delivers a workflow that’s fast, intuitive, and deeply connected to your music production process.

Seamless Integration with FL Studio for Streamlined Workflow

FLkey 49 is built to work perfectly with FL Studio’s core features, providing direct access to your Sequencer, Channel Rack, and Mixer without the need for a mouse. Every control is intelligently mapped, allowing producers to tweak parameters, browse presets, and record automation naturally. From adjusting volume faders to switching patterns, the FLkey 49 makes production more efficient by putting every vital command at your fingertips, saving time and keeping creativity uninterrupted.

Full Control of Beats, Patterns, and Rhythms

With 16 velocity-sensitive RGB pads, FLkey 49 turns drum programming into a hands-on experience. Its Step Sequencer mode lets you design beats quickly and visually, while Pad mode allows live performance of samples, triggering loops and percussion directly in the Channel Rack. Note Repeat ensures perfect timing for hi-hats and fills, while the dual Pad modes offer flexibility between precision sequencing and expressive playing. These features make FLkey 49 an ideal choice for producers focused on hip-hop, electronic, and dance music.

Enhanced Mixing and Automation in Real Time

FLkey 49 gives you hardware-based control of FL Studio’s Mixer with nine 45mm faders and eight assignable knobs. You can adjust track levels, balance panning, and automate plug-in parameters directly from the controller, keeping your workflow smooth and efficient. Essential transport buttons allow for instant access to recording, playback, undo, redo, and quantize—all designed to let you stay in the flow while maintaining precision in every step of your production.

Powerful Creative Tools with Scale and Chord Modes

Writing melodies and harmonies is made effortless with Scale and Chord modes. Scale mode ensures that every note you play fits perfectly within your selected key, eliminating errors and maintaining musical consistency. Three Chord modes let you build complex harmonies with a single key press, helping you write full chord progressions faster. These performance tools open creative pathways for both beginners and professional producers looking to streamline songwriting and composition in FL Studio.

Comprehensive Software Suite for Complete Music Production

The Novation FLkey 49 includes a robust software bundle featuring a six-month trial of FL Studio Producer Edition and professional-grade plug-ins from industry leaders like GForce, XLN Audio, AAS, Spitfire Audio, and Klevgrand. With access to rich piano tones, analog synth emulations, expressive strings, and creative effects, you can build professional-quality productions right out of the box. Whether you’re starting a new track or enhancing an existing one, these tools expand your sonic capabilities and complement FLkey 49’s hardware integration.
