Novation Launchpad - New controller for Ableton Live

http://www.ableton.com/launchpad

Launchpad is a dedicated controller for Ableton Live, co-developed by Novation and Ableton. Perfect for DJing, performing live or working in the studio, Launchpad features a multi-color, 64-button grid, control modes for the Session View and Live's mixer, two fully-programmable User Modes and dedicated scene-launch/function buttons. Despite the big grid, Launchpad is neat, compact and portable: 239 x 239 mm with a slim 24 mm profile and weighing only 717 g.

Buttons will NEVER DIE. Fuck touchscreens.

@technicalerr0r Thanks!

[technicalerr0r]

@CHRHN turn launch quantisation off. or turn it down to 1/16

Can anyone help me with this? I can only play a clip each second in Ableton Live. It pisses me off and makes me unable to do a lot of things. How do I turn it off, whatever it is?

@FRB1420 It's not. To pull this off, you need a solid understanding of how Ableton works. Otherwise, it's like a non-artist staring at a blank canvas, trying to draw anything other than a stick figure.

Plus, Live Suite will set you back a good $700, and the launchpad another $125. It's always nice to learn how to use the software before dropping close to a grand on it.

@Sol7KJR I agree. As an owner of the APC40, I feel like it's really great for playback and FX rack management, whereas the portability and 8x8 grid of the launchpad is perfect for 'freestyling' ideas.

[Sol7KJR]

get the apc40 first, makes songs easier to make, this is just for freestyle and ideas

[FranzzInLove]

Madeon uses this like a pro.

[tbopne]
