    Hi there, wow that is what alot of the videos i've seen about the novation launchpads don't show. An in depth look in the components page. I'm sure maybe the manual would explain it but I havent seen a video about the components page settings until I saw this video. Awesome video by the way.

    Looking for touch sensitive pad controller to trigger samples in Kontakt for a Kiosk set up. Simple Q but with the Launchpad X could I send all pads on the same midi channel but say customize each row left to right with its own color? To encourage a visual connection with the type of sound it is triggering in my Kontakt samples. Bottom row 1, drums, blue, next row up, bells, green, etc...

    Me and many others thought the LP Pro was very heavy to trigger notes with. How does the LPx's trigger sensitivity compare to the LP Pro's trigger sensitivity?

      You can map Groove Agent pads to the Launchpad or any controller with pads easy - it works very well as a sample playing combination. Outside of the Ableton environment the Launchpad default setting is MIDI note.

  • @davidlynch4338
    @davidlynch4338 4 года назад

    Annnnnd since the Ableton 10.1.3 update (support for LPX and LPMM3) Launchpad MK2 doesn't work anymore. Only as a generic controller for midi channel 1....

    • @beuniqueb

    Gaz ! You win the Interwebz for today !!!
    08:42 That's the best explanation of the Novation pad Keyboard Layout that I've found so far.
    Having dipped a toe into 'modern controllers' with the Sensel Morph, I was looking to possibly expand the bridge of the Holy Starship Karnak (the Enterprise was taken) with another device.
    This Launchpad X may well fit the bill, the Pro being a bit pricey for what I'm after; still reeling from the Morph ...

    • @KozmykJ
      @KozmykJ 3 года назад

      Yup , you made a sale Gaz. 🖖
      Launchpad X
      See Novation for your commision ...
      Also added an AKAI LPD-8 to add some knob controllers without breaking the bank.
      (👍 to Rachel K Collier for that tip)
      I might have gone for the Launchkey Mini 3 but I already have a Keystep (aftertouch) and there's a bit too much overlap ... maybe later if I run out of CC knobs 😉

  • @fincorrigan7139

    Why are there not 8 user config slots for midi mapping? Because when they release the Pro version you'll get 8 or 16 or 32 :) Gotta leave room for the upsell Gaz!!

      They will release a launch pad pro 2..but novation are generally good at not selling you a mk2 rather than giving updates.

    • @fincorrigan7139
      @fincorrigan7139 4 года назад +2

      @@InkyDaCaT Don't get me wrong, they are top notch at firmware updates for some products (Circuit and Bass Station II in particular) but when it comes to controllers they have very carefully defined thresholds where they add additional features. For example the LaunchKey Mk II's firmware will never be upgraded so you can assign midi CC to the faders and knobs - you have to go up a notch to the Impulse range to get that. Ford have been doing it for 100 years.

    Is the customizer software to make your own custom settings an on line/browser based/website based application? Can one customize the launchpad X with just the iPad Pro? No desktop needed?
    I really hope the X can be customized with out a desktop for use iPad Pro users who have divorced themselves from desktop machines. Or at least is there an iOS app for iPad Pro musicians? If either is he case, at $200, Im sold!
