We spoke to Chris Calcutt from Novation at Gear Fest 2023, where he introduced the FL Key 49, an expansion of Novation's FL Key range. The FL Key 49 offers more keys and additional features compared to the previous models, addressing the demand for larger keyboard options.
It provides a comprehensive level of control over FL Studio, with dedicated hardware access to the channel rack, sequencer, and various functions. Chris demonstrated the seamless integration between the FL Key 49 and FL Studio, highlighting the advantages of hands-on control and the elimination of reliance on the mouse.
