LP Pro has quickly become the centre of my setup....I have been busy migrating tunes to it...and running this setup from it. The iPad is running the LP app, which I use for audio loops and one shots, it is also providing clock to sync the two.
And in the rack which is hidden behind the drum stool...under the circuits.
@Aud_iOS Hey I can't seem to get my launchpad pro mk3 into ghost mode. I followed what you said above.. am I missing something in the steps?
hello, I don t know how to sync the novation with ableton (as tempo novation is at 120 or Ableton is drived by the Ipad to an other tempo) . Thanks in advance.
Sometimes it syncs and often stop playing...
I’ve been trying to get the same thing out of the pads on my Launchkey 25 Mk2.
Not sure about the previous models but the MK3 has 4 custom pad layouts that you can assign with MIDI widgets via Novation’s Components website.
So assigning MIDI CC to the pads would be possible on latest Launchkey.
I even managed to assign some buttons to CCs 98 & 99, One of the knobs to CC6 and used these to send NRPNs to the Novation PEAK and control its mod matrix from the Launchkey
Ordered a LP Pro Mk 3 today from Amazon. They definitely dropped in price since launch now £264 in UK with shipping.
New Firmware just in.
Looking good.. The MidiSTEPs Seq. performance features looks great...$349?
@RajahP I picked one up on Amazon £260 in UK
Here is a video of the update pretty cool.
Yep, was looking at it, tempting.. Thanks
Still 499$ CAD on Amazon.ca
Is it possible to sequence CC datas with the new Launchpad Mk 3?
Not to my knowledge. Maybe with a custom script.
This is exactly what I am trying to do… Any tips?
I just picked up the Launchpad X since it now interfaces well with LogicPro X 10.5/6, (as I'm not an Ableton user).
I've been hoping to also use it with my iPad Pro, and it interfaces seamlessly with the Ampify Launchpad app for playback fun. But for more creativity and production, I'm thinking that Garageband may be the best fit with its Live Loops capability. I have GB, Auria Pro, Cubasis 3, Nanostudio 2 as well as AUM etc.
Any other suggestions re the Launchpad X usage with iPad would be welcome!
Having the ability to create 'Custom layouts' means the LPX can be configured to work with pretty much any app in one way or another.
If you're keen on messing with midi scripts in StreamByter or Mozaic then I find these pair amazingly well with the LPX for complex midi control.
I've not tried yet but it would likely pair well with ChordPolyPad too.
@SpookyZoo Yeah, I'm not averse to "getting under the hood" so to speak and I've been exploring the mode customization with Novation's Components and the MIDISynthControl app. I'm more looking at advice as to what iOS app folks are recommending as being able to offer the best "playground" to then customize the LPx for? I've seen some videos and threads about setting it up with BM3, which although I have it, I'm really not into it at all.
Workflow-wise, I love NS2, but without audio, it's incomplete, hence my leaning toward Cubasis 3 et al. Garageband seems offer the closest workflow to what I can do with the LPx on Logic Pro's Live Loops, but I'd like more feedback before I dive headlong into customization. I know very little about the Imaginado LK AUV3 because I've never used Ableton Live and don't really want to learn that program/workflow. Cheers!
LK works out of the box with the session mode of the launchpads which is great. I don’t know of any other app (apart from Ampifys of course) that you can use session mode in. LK is pretty much like the Ampify Launchpad app just for MIDI. What I use it for is sending single MIDI notes to EG Pulse to trigger audio loops, which makes that setup practically a highly customizable version of the Launchpad app. This process requires quite some setup and using LK for MIDI also has a slight learning curve. Maybe that helps you decide if it’s for you.
Here’s how I use the custom pages so far. Mind that I have the Launchpad Pro, so I have 8 custom pages.
I think it’s about time to finally take the plunge jump off the fence and get that CPP app... as it will never be on sale... ever
Oh, I have the app, it’s great. I’ve just not hooked it up with CPP lately. I remember now that I did in fact do so when first getting the LPX though and they paired really well. I set up a ‘SoundPrism’ style layout with CPP providing the scale chords on leftmost pad of each row.
Check out Quantum Composer by @soundtemple. It's an awesome suite of Mozaic plugins for sequencing and control. It comes with a Launchpad mini mk3 template that loads perfectly on a Launchpad X via components. It's designed to work alongside a controller with encoders, specifically a Midi Fighter Twister, but I've just found joyful integration with a much cheaper Behringer x-touch mini. Good anyway with just the Launchpad.

WOW! That is some major piece of work! It looks amazing, but to be honest, at going on 72, I’m never going to have the time and patience to figure out a reasonable workflow. I’m more of a traditional DAW-lover rather than with the AUM concept of so working. Appreciate the feedback though… cheers!
I totally forgot, that I wrote Novation a few weeks ago. Here is their reply:
It sure sounds like they want to be bombarded with requests for components on iOS. Audiobus army you know what to do 😎
Novation really is one of the few „big“ companies that I really love. Their user support is awesome and their products are innovative and of good quality. 👍🏼
So I joined the LPP party today. Man this thing is cool! I’ve only really just scratched the surface but it’s capable of way more stuff than I was expecting.
I really hope they add more tracks to the sequencer. It’s such a fun way to make music and takes me out of my usual iOS mindset which is good sometimes.
With LK it’s awesome. Can’t wait to try with the imminent atom 2 as integration looks super tight.
It’s gonna be music making heaven on iOS this year.
I’ve just joined the party as well!
I’ve had mine for a couple days. I have a vision of how I’d like to use it, and I know it’s possible, but like you, I’ve still only barely scratched the surface. I spent the first day just looking at the thing and trying to figure out how to wire everything up, which I’m still working on. Trying to figure out the best place for it on my desk etc.
I’m also challenging myself to learn something new, and this is definitely new to me. I’m an old school guitar guy (51) who’s who’s gotten himself into synthesizers over the years. A “grid style controller” is something I never would have even considered only a couple years ago, but with all these amazing apps, and everything I’ve learned about synthesis, MIDI, audio loops, clip launching, grooveboxes, etc., the Launchpad just makes sense now!
I’m determined to learn the “language” of this thing. No, not that language (as in the coding language) no, I mean the workflow of the Launchpad interface. I’m slooooooowly figuring out how to navigate this thing... the GF thinks it’s ridiculous “for a 51 year old man to sit and play with little colored squares”, but I don’t care.. she doesn’t know what I know....
I have a Pro mk3 I thought I would use it with Logic and now with Atom 2 but I would rather focus on my Linnstrument. PM me if you’re in Denmark/Europe and interested 😉
Here’s my setup. Feel the need for some faders...
Question for Launchpad Pro Mk3 owners....
In the sequencer, can you record into a chain of patterns?
The idea is: from the Patterns page, I chain two empty patterns, hit record, then live play 64 steps continuously. These 64 steps are then spread across two chained patterns.
I think I saw it in a YT video, but I'm not finding the answer, including in the manual.
[edit: here's the video (at 9:45... the vid time didn't come through on the link for some reason)... it seems as if he's recording a 128 step bassline in 4 patterns...]
