Many thanks! It seems like all the Launchpad videos out there are either 7 hour marathons with a bunch of extraneous detail, or someone composing a song without offering any didactic value. This was super helpful!
That's right. In order to access the controls for instruments and plug-ins added to a track from Session/Arrangement view, the track must first be clicked or 'in focus'.
hi! I am a high school teacher, I want to use launchpad to record my voice with a few effects (very few), and give students commands like: Be silent!, Seat down, Open your chromebooks, attention to the attendance... etc.. also i want to allow a designated button to my NINJA students... (that means the best students..) I have NOOOOOO IDEIA how to set all that up! HELLLPPP!!!!! HAHAHA
This is possible, but will require a Mac or Windows PC in order to run Ableton Live, that you can connect Launchpad to. Launchpad is purely a software controller. Our Support Team can explain how you can set this up - bit.ly/NovationSupport
I got it to do something at least 😅 still it's a way over complicated beat machine I would recommend getting something that has sounds preloaded into it that you can just hook up to your DJ booth
You just need to double-click to create a clip first then ensure that you have set up a count-in, as shown here. Then navigate to Options and ensure that 'MIDI Arrangement Overdub' is selected. Now, when you press Record, you can record quantised notes into the Clip and have it loop, as shown here. Alternatively you can leave 'MIDI Arrangement Overdub' unselected and use the Session Record button rather than Record to achieve the same result.
Ive tried everything that you explaind and even more, still cant find the way to get light feedback in user mode. Ive tried every channel, different preferences, yet the issue goes on. I have a Novation Launchpad Mini MK3

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-No5stDnSuSU.html Heyyo i cant see why i select channel 6.? is this because of where the drum rack is located, or is it a command for lights? will it always be channel 6, or just for this demo?
I have a problem with mine it doesn't make sound I have followed everything you said and it not making anything sound except for a phew keys on the launchpad. Also it seemed to be sync but no sound at all.
Sorry to hear that you're having problems. Have you discussed this with our tech support team yet? They will be able to help you get set up: bit.ly/NovationSupport
