Novation FLkey 2 37 | 37-key full-size MIDI keyboard controller built for FL Studio
A 37-key MIDI keyboard controller that condenses the FL Studio workflow onto your desktop
The Novation FLkey 2 37 is a 37-key MIDI keyboard controller from Novation, designed for FL Studio controller needs. It features a full-size 37-key synth-action keyboard, 16 velocity-sensitive RGB pads with polyphonic aftertouch, and 8 encoders, plus USB-C bus power, 5-pin MIDI output, and a sustain pedal interface.
Compared with traditional general-purpose MIDI keyboards that require extensive manual mapping, the Novation FLkey 2 37 uses integrated control tailored for FL Studio, along with Scale mode, Fixed Chord mode, and Chord Map mode, making composition keyboard work, drum input, chord generation, and mixing operations more direct. Compared with portable controllers in the same price range, its advantages are the three-octave full-size keyboard, clear DAW-focused integration, and bidirectional communication with NKS-compatible software.

Who is the Novation FLkey 2 37 for?
適合誰購買
Creators who mainly use FL Studio as their DAW and want a physical controller for faster composition, rhythm input, and chord ideas
Home producers with limited desk space who still want the feel of a full-size keyboard and need both playability and control integration
Beginners learning keyboard composition who want Scale, Fixed Chord, and Chord Map to lower the theory barrier
Mobile musicians who need both computer and external MIDI hardware control, and value a three-octave layout and fast setup
誰不適合購買
Users who are already used to a larger range of 49 keys or more and mainly play with both hands
People who mainly use other DAWs and do not need deep FL Studio integration; a general-purpose controller may offer better value
Users who already own a high-end general-purpose controller and rarely use chord modes, pads, or DAW shortcut control, where the upgrade may feel limited
Novation FLkey 2 37 core technology and features
Deep FL Studio integration: Built for FL Studio workflows, it can directly handle performance, beat arrangement, volume adjustment, effects control, and project operations, reducing back-and-forth between mouse and keyboard.
37-key full-size synth-action keyboard: The three-octave full-size keyboard balances playability and desktop footprint, making it suitable for melody sketches, bass lines, chord input, and everyday composition.
16 velocity-sensitive RGB pads: Useful for sample triggering, finger drumming, step sequencing, and control mapping, with polyphonic aftertouch for more expressive performance and live control.
8 encoders for real-time parameter control: Quickly adjust mixing, plugin parameters, filters, effects, and internal FL Studio functions for a more intuitive composing and sound-design experience.
OLED display: Shows key information and workflow status, and works with transport controls such as play, stop, loop, and record for clearer feedback.
Scale mode: Helps correct notes and reduces the chance of wrong notes, especially useful for non-keyboard players who want to quickly create melodies and chords.
Fixed Chord mode: Supports one-touch chord triggering, making chord progressions, pad layering, and pop arrangement more efficient.
Chord Map mode: Provides chord progression generation, ideal for inspiration, quickly building a song skeleton, and EDM / Pop production workflows.
Pitch and modulation wheels: Offer a more traditional and intuitive way to perform bends and modulation, ideal for creators who need expressive real-time performance control.
NKS bidirectional communication support: Enables two-way interaction with Native Instruments and NKS-compatible software, improving sound browsing, control mapping, and overall integration.
Mackie HUI support: Can switch between FL Studio and other HUI-supported DAWs, increasing workflow flexibility across platforms.
External control expansion: Built-in 5-pin MIDI output and sustain pedal interface allow it to handle not only software control but also external MIDI devices and performance control needs.
USB-C bus power: Operates without an additional power adapter, enabling fast setup and making it suitable for mobile production, dorm rooms, home recording, and compact desktop workstations.
Cross-device compatibility: Supports recent macOS, Windows, and iOS devices for easy integration into different creative environments.
FL Studio dedicated workflow control
From instrument performance and beat production to bass line arrangement and mixing parameter adjustment, everything can be handled more intuitively through the physical controller.
Workflow buttons support core commands such as Play, Stop, Loop, Record, Metronome, Score Log/Quantize, Pattern/Song, and Undo/Redo.
The OLED display shows key control information in real time, reducing the time spent switching windows and checking parameters.
37-key full-size keyboard and performance input design
The three-octave full-size synth-action keyboard is better suited than a mini keyboard for two-hand chords, melody sketching, and everyday composition input.
Pitch and modulation wheels provide familiar expressive performance control, suitable for Lead, Bass, Pad, and synthesizer sounds.
It balances portability and practical range without significantly increasing desktop footprint, making it a well-rounded choice for desktop production and mobile creation.
16 pads and polyphonic aftertouch control
The 16 velocity-sensitive RGB pads can be used for Channel Rack sample triggering, finger drumming, step sequencing, and Mixer Inserts control.
Polyphonic aftertouch enables more nuanced pad performance and real-time control, enhancing expressive playing and sound-shaping freedom.
They can also map to FL Studio, plugins, and external hardware, improving multitasking efficiency on a single controller.
Scale, Fixed Chord, and Chord Map creative assist modes
Scale mode helps correct notes and reduces the chance of wrong notes, especially useful for non-keyboard players or when sketching melodies quickly.
Fixed Chord mode lets you trigger chords with a single key, making chord layering, rhythmic harmony, and pop arrangement more efficient.
Chord Map mode quickly builds chord progressions and song skeletons, making it practical for EDM, Hip-Hop, Pop, and scoring workflows.
NKS bidirectional communication and cross-DAW control flexibility
Supports Native Kontrol Standard (NKS) bidirectional communication for deeper integration with Native Instruments and NKS-compatible software.
Enables more efficient sound browsing, parameter control, and workflow switching, reducing the time spent on manual remapping.
Supports Mackie HUI, allowing switching between FL Studio and other compatible DAWs for greater flexibility in hybrid work environments.
USB-C and external MIDI hardware integration
Uses USB-C bus power and is ready to go as soon as it is connected to a computer, making it ideal for desktop workstations, dorm rooms, and mobile production.
The unit provides a 5-pin MIDI output for direct control of compatible external synthesizers, sound modules, and other MIDI devices.
It also includes a sustain pedal interface, giving piano, electric piano, and chord performance input a more complete feel and expanding expressive playing.
