  1. Kimberly Dale

    I absolutely love my Novation Launchpad Pro MIDI keyboard! As an architect here in Stockton, I’ve always been interested in incorporating music and technology into my work, and this keyboard has been a game-changer for me.

    First of all, the black color is sleek and modern, and it looks great sitting on my desk. But more importantly, the Launchpad Pro is incredibly easy to use and incredibly versatile. There are so many different functions and settings to explore, and I’ve been able to create some really unique sounds and musical sequences with this keyboard.

    Compared to other MIDI keyboards I’ve used in the past, the Launchpad Pro definitely stands out for how intuitive it is. The buttons are responsive and the touch-sensitive controls make it easy to experiment with new sounds and effects. It’s also incredibly portable, which is great for when I’m traveling for work.

    Finally, I have to give a shoutout to the delivery of this keyboard to Stockton. It arrived quickly and was well-packaged, which was a relief because I was worried about it being damaged during shipping. Overall, I would rate the Novation Launchpad Pro a solid 5 out of 5 and would highly recommend it to any musician or music enthusiast looking for a high-quality MIDI keyboard.

How do I configure MIDI routing and programming for advanced performance capabilities on the Novation Launchpad Pro?

To configure MIDI routing and programming for advanced performance capabilities on the Novation Launchpad Pro, follow these steps:

1. Connect your Launchpad Pro to your computer using a USB cable or over MIDI via a MIDI interface. Open your preferred DAW (digital audio workstation) software and create a new project. In the DAW, select the Launchpad Pro as your MIDI input and output device. Load a soft synth or virtual instrument into your DAW that supports MIDI Learn functionality. Press the MIDI Learn button on the Launchpad Pro (located in the top left corner of the grid) to enter MIDI Learn mode. Press and hold the shift key on the Launchpad Pro, then press a pad or knob that you want to assign a function to. In your DAW, select the parameter you want to map to the Launchpad Pro pad or knob. Release both the MIDI Learn button and the shift key on the Launchpad Pro. Repeat steps 6-8 for each pad or knob you want to map. To configure MIDI routing, go to your DAW's MIDI settings and select the Launchpad Pro as your output device. In the Launchpad Pro's MIDI settings (accessed through the Novation Automap utility), select the soft synth or virtual instrument you loaded in step 4 as the input device. To program advanced performance capabilities, such as creating custom chord progressions, loading sampler patches, or triggering sequences, use your DAW's automation and sequencing features in conjunction with the Launchpad Pro's pads and knobs. By following these steps, you should be able to configure MIDI routing and programming for advanced performance capabilities on the Novation Launchpad Pro.
