I just bought the mk3, and it turns out that the full integration (i.e. transport controls) only works with live 10. Kind of a bummer for anyone using an older version...
i thnk i will get me a mk3 and start learning how to make beats with fruity loops... can u recomend any good video to learn the basics for music , i know a few things but i would love to know a few more things about sampling ?
Hello, great vid, actually helped me to choose which keyboard to buy. I went for the mk3. But I am a bit lost, what goes instead of the incontrol button of the mk2. It was helpful for the chanel rack change and other things in FLS but now...it seems the option is no longer available
would u recommend learning Ableton live for a beginner? thinking of purchasing NOVATION LAUNCHKEY MINI MK3 opposed to Akai MPK. only messed with FL 15 years ago with no controler...
Hey John, GREAT video! I just have a quick question. I’m really thinking of getting the MK3. And I wanted to see if I can assign chord triggers to each pad (I’ve done that to other midi controllers) when ever I set a chord trigger on each pad, it plays the chord and it doesn’t sustain how I want it to. Of course I would use a sustain pedal that has the option to switch polarity but I don’t want to carry the sustain pedal. Is there any way the MK3 can sustain or like latch the drum pads to hold the notes while playing keys? This is the dealer breaker for me! (Using MainStage 3)
Interesting...yea it doesn’t have a hold or sustain button like some micro controllers have...the only real way to accomplish it is to use a sustain pedal like you mentioned
@@Johnmike Hi, I'm about to get launchkey mini mk2 for 68 dollars (new and with warranty), and launchpad mini mk3 for 129 dollars (new and with warranty) Is it worth the price difference? I am eager for my first midi keyboard to work in ableton, so I want to be sure to make a good purchase. The budget gives me to stretch to the launchpad mini mk3, but I want to see if the price difference is worth it. Regards!
a.k.a Doctor Chvrly-D that’s a great price on the MK2! If you can stretch and get the MK3 I would definitely grab it...but if the chord mode and arp don’t impress you and you don’t need a pitch bend and mod wheel...then get the MK2
I’m just wondering if it’s worth it to get the Mark III if I don’t use Ableton. Also, do you know if this can be powered directly by the iPad without a power supply? Thanks for the video. Very thorough
Well I'd hope the drum pads were better. I have the Launchkey 49 Mk2 and they're unusable for drums (in my opinion). I'm going to buy a Maschine Mikro Mk3 tonight because I really want to finger-drum.
akai mini supposedy better pads. i bnought this one, but there are many still who prefers akai mini for some reason and I like akai's design more too, but yeah I bought launchkey due to all reviews, but they are probably sponsored, plus I prefer garageband, because ableton interface is not appealing and it's confusing
Cheers mate, sleek vid. Did you manage to figure out how to send a midi program change messages from this. There’s no mention in the manual and Novation are dragging their feet responding. There’s a clear grey label on the unit that would indicate it should be pressed in combo with shift but I’m not getting anything. Cheers
@@Johnmike thanks. I've just worked it out. It doesn't work great for me as it sends pc messages only sequentially so if you want to send pc 1 and then PC 4 you're stuffed because it will trigger all of the messages in between. Which sucks big time. I hope there's another way of doing it.
Hey John, I'm trying to find the difference between the Mk2 and mk3 for the Launchkey 49 keyboards but not having any luck. Are you able to shed any light on this for me? Cheers mate!
интересно в мк3 педы тоже будут срабатывать те которые не нажимались? в мк2 такая проблема была изза глупой технологии сборки этих самых педов.... ruclips.net/video/NOBg5SNlbyw/видео.html
I guess that plant really like listen about midi controlers
thesamuraicode yup lol
Great, straightforward comparison! Will be sure to check out your MK2 vid, I'm definitely still learning mine after I got it as a gift
I love that Novation but the modulation and the pitch wheel on a small controller like this
I just bought the mk3, and it turns out that the full integration (i.e. transport controls) only works with live 10. Kind of a bummer for anyone using an older version...
so do mk2 midi controlllers work with ableton 10?
Thanks man! Perfect info I was looking for
i thnk i will get me a mk3 and start learning how to make beats with fruity loops... can u recomend any good video to learn the basics for music , i know a few things but i would love to know a few more things about sampling ?
Great comparison @John Mike mk3 is just great addition for someone on the go or just wanting a small footprint ....keep up the great reviews!
Thanks!
UR awsome , but i dont know if the pistch/reverb...moduladors work on FL Studio. does?
You need one more flower on the left side...great comparison. If there was aftertouch I'd get mk3 in a heartbeat
Lol!! Someone told me in another video that the flower is more educated on midi controllers than most people on RUclips! 🤣
Is the novation mini mk3 better then the Akai mini mk3?
I agree if I had to choose it would be the latchkey mini mk3

Just got the mk2 49 key.. but I am probably gonna grab the mini mk3 for on the go!
@lazarro skinny I got it and I love it!
would u recommend learning Ableton live for a beginner? thinking of purchasing NOVATION LAUNCHKEY MINI MK3 opposed to Akai MPK. only messed with FL 15 years ago with no controler...
If going with Ableton I suggest going with the launch key
Does pitch bend /modulation only work in ablton? Thanks mj.
No it works on any daw
thank you very much! I am buying in three month the mk3.
Thank you so much bro. 👍🏽👊🏽 this video helped a lot!
So, is the mk3 better than the mk2? I am trying to decide between those two, but I don’t know.
It is

Thought the differences was just cosmetic that's A LOT of differences
lol exactly it's DrAstically different in features
What kind of camera do you use?
I actually just use my iPhone X
@@Johnmike
Hi. Please tell me Launchkey Mini MK2 which is the latest version of Ableton Live compatible with, or is there no limitation?
Did you have it already ? Is out of the stockworld wide
great vid brudda i need one for my ipad when i go to the coffee shop
Shazamm the iPad Producer cornball
Can you use this in FL studio?
Yes
Thanks ✌🏾

amazing set up and im getting the mk3 but get a stand or stabilizer for your camera bc it shakes every time you move
It’s not the camera....it’s the table...

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN: NOVATION LAUNCHKEY Mk3 25, MK3 37 and Lounchkey MINI mk3?????
Size and number of keys
you need more subscribers, this is so professional
Midi out is real nice new feature on the MK3. I think the Arturia keystep has some new competition.
why not akai mini
thank u for this video♥

I’ll have an MK3 soon to compare with
TY
Yes!

Nice comparison vid. Just please say "mark" instead of Mk. That's what it is abbreviated for. ...British thing
Ha ha...absolutely
