However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Now, millions of producers and performers can experience seamless hardware-software integration with partner controllers, all while accessing NI’s legendary sounds. Every compatible controller will include a Komplete 15 Select voucher, giving users instant access to a powerful sound library.

The Firmware 1.2 update for the Novation Launchkey series introduces a trio of enhancements that significantly boost its functionality and ease of use. First, it brings a vital improvement for those using external gear like sequencers and grooveboxes; the Play and Stop buttons now transmit Start/Stop messages over USB and MIDI outside a DAW environment, with Launchkey Mini featuring a straightforward Play to Start/Stop functionality. Secondly, the update enhances visual feedback—controls light up in response to matching incoming MIDI messages, providing a clear visual indication of their state, available for both Pads and Fader buttons across various models. Lastly, users gain the ability to preset their preferred Fader, Pad, and Port modes for immediate access upon startup, although this feature excludes the Launchkey Mini model. This update, accessible through Components, marks a significant step towards a more intuitive and efficient workflow for Launchkey users.
Translate emotion into sound with the highly expressive keybed. The velocity-sensitive keys react to the force of your touch. For example, striking the key hard will result in a more brash and in-your-face sound; subtly pressing the key will result in a softer tone ideal for adding nuances to your performance.
The onboard performance pads have been upgraded from the MK2, with a larger and more expressive design. The pads also react to the force of your touch, resulting in more dynamic performances. The backlit pads are perfect for finger-drumming, triggering samples, creating melodies and much more.
The Launchkey 88 MK3 employs multiple new ways to interact with sounds and new ways to create melodies. The new three chord modes allow you to trigger chords from hitting a single note. This is highly useful not only when creating music but also for live performances. The three chord modes are comprised of fixed, scale and user, with the latter allowing you to dictate your own chord patterns.
The new scale modes also allow you to transpose both the keybed and pads to trigger notes in a selected scale. This is ideal for creating melodies, allowing you to hit any key and create something coherent and in key. The versatile arpeggiator allows you to create rhythmic melodic pieces with ease.
In addition to expressive keybed and pads, the Launchkey 88 MK3 employs a range of transport controls, encoders and faders for maximum control of your music software and virtual instruments. The encoders and faders are perfect for controlling automation and tweaking parameters within instruments and effects. The deep integration with Ableton takes the transport controls to the next level, minimising the need to switch computer and controller.
Getting started with music doesn't need to be difficult. The Launchkey 88 includes a huge range of virtual instruments, plug-ins and DAWs to get started with music creation instantly. First and foremost, Launchkey 88 comes with Ableton Live Lite, a powerful and flexible DAW that boasts deep integration with your new keyboard. Ideal for electronic music creators, DJ's and producers, Ableton offers unrivalled customisation, onboard sounds and creativity-enhancing tools to supercharge your workflow.
Outside of the sounds available to you inside of Ableton Live Lite, Launchkey 88 also comes with XLN Audio Addictive Keys, AAS Session Bundle and Spitfire Audio Expression Strings. Some of the biggest names in the industry, this collection of virtual instruments spans everything from immaculate pianos, modern and quirky synths, electric guitar models and classic strings. Eclectic musicians will take full advantage of the uniques presented, ensuring you can create the most high-quality, realistic and authentic music as possible.
Processing your new virtual instruments is made simple with the inclusion of Klevgrand DAW Cassette and Reverb. DAW Cassette is a quick and easy way to add analog character and vintage tape sounds to your recordings whilst Reverb places your music in a unique space, adding depth and ambience.
