Novation SL MkII 49 key USB MIDI controller keyboard - ONE KEY not working!! - Fresh Stock Dated February 2026

Description

RELISTED -- PLEASE READ - ONE KEY NOT WORKING, MINOR SCRATCHES:
Return policy: SOLD AS-IS.  No RETURNS FOR NON-WORKING features.  20% handling fee for returns otherwise.
This is a returned item.  Below listing is still all true, EXCEPT, due to age (as this received less than an hour of use), the bottommost D key (second white key from the bottom) does not seem to be responding.  Firmware is up to date.  Keyboard is in mint condition otherwise, EXCEPT for the minor scratches on bottom, SEE PICTURES (there are a few, one is under from chin, others are in middle).  There is also a very small aberration in the paint on the top left panel, but I doubt most would see it (I had to zoom in a lot to even capture it).  These defects occurred in the return process, not due to usage.  As you will see, overall, the unit looks untouched.
So, I am lowering the price due to the one key not working and the slight marks (again, those that are noticeable are on the underside).  The key had been working just months ago.  I am not sure what would be needed to fix it.  Channel aftertouch still works on that key, but not the key on/off sensor.  It is possible by opening it up, cleaning or deoxidizing might fix it, but no promises.  I don't really have time to investigate it further.  Since it's at the bottom of the keyboard, hopefully it can still find a home for someone who doesn't mind the one D key not being operational.
Also note that box is in rougher shape - I added a picture to show the tear in the box (was originally shipped out in carton, but then sent without it - no damage was caused by that though - I will pack it in another box again to ship it out to you).

ORIGINAL LISTING:
Novation SL MkII 49 key USB MIDI controller keyboard.  Like New condition.  I bought this for a second studio, but then closed down the second studio - only used keyboard for a one hour session, at most!  Very high quality synth action; probably the best I've ever tried, to be honest.  Not willing to accept offers.
Description from company listing:
--------------------------------------------
SL Mk II has been designed to give you complete control over your music making software. We have worked with each of the main DAW manufacturers to make sure each of the 56 knobs, faders and buttons control the things in your software that you need them to control. However, the really clever bit is that SL MkII can directly control your plug-in instruments and FX (you also get an Italian made, semi-weighted keyboard mechanism).
Automap is a piece of software that comes with all Novation controllers. It has been designed to make the job of assigning your hardware controls to various software parameters quick and easy.
Automap enables knobs, faders and buttons to instantly control plug-in instruments/FX, as well as your sequencer's mixer, transport controls and more
Open a plug-in instrument/FX, and you have instant access to all the plug-in parameters. This allows you to assign knobs, faders and buttons, by simply clicking on the software parameter, and touching the control!
High quality professional keyboard
Velocity-sensitive, semi-weighted action keyboard with assignable after-touch. Italian made keyboard mechanism plays like a musical instrument rather than a computer accessory
Illuminated controls provide instant visual feedback
Brightly lit LED rings around the eight smooth encoders, and backlit buttons provide instant visual feedback
Giant 144-character LCD screen
Long LCD screen is large enough to show the name and value of entire rows of knobs, faders or buttons, instantly displaying what each control is assigned to
Huge array of touch-sensitive controls
Touch any knob or fader and all information (name and value of whatever it is controlling) will appear on the LCD screen above it
Automap 3 PRO Control Software
SL Mk II comes with Automap software which enables you to instantly map software parameters to faders, buttons, knobs (encoders and pots) and other controllers.
