Novation // Launchpad Pro ft. Iain James

Meet the Professional Grid Instrument.
--

Launchpad Pro is the simplest and best way to create dynamic, expressive performances in Ableton Live, or any music software.

We've given our iconic Launchpad a total overhaul. Enhanced with RGB LED feedback, and velocity and pressure-sensitive pads, Launchpad Pro brings limitless expression and creativity to your music.

Enhance your performance: take hands-on control of your music with seamless Ableton Live integration.
Control just about anything: music software and external hardware.
Focus on your music: the RGB pads match the colour of your clips in Ableton Live, so you can concentrate on triggering loops.
Make dynamic beats: create expressive drum performances using velocity-sensitive pads.
Play it like an instrument: easily play notes, melodies and chords.
Mix without losing focus: get slick immediate access to all your mixer controls mid-performance, so you stay in your flow.
Easily apply effects: get creative by controlling any effect or instrument mid-performance.
Download a growing library of Max for Live devices, then control them using your Launchpad Pro.
Compact, lightweight and bus-powered, tough enough to survive the roughest gigs.
Make music immediately: comes with everything you need to start performing your music.

love that they included velocity sensitive pads, ill stick with my launchpad mini for the meantime but eventually i will get launchpad pro

[WildSummitMusic]

The ableton push by novation, yes ! I want it !

[itsJohnLoftus]

Wow! Very impressive, Can't wait to get one!

[GamesforCykits]

Nice mate, can't wait to get one

[KhakiPance]

Just imagine what Sonevable could do with all those new colors.

[macreviewz]

surely not a Prince level trained musician here lol - but more random player guessing notes- but still sounds interesting and sweet to me ! keep it coming!

[HarmonicaMustang]

To be honest, unless you don't have a Launchpad, have the original Launchpad which doesn't make the cut anymore, really like to upgrade or have too much money on you, then there isn't much point in buying the Launchpad Pro. Yes, velocity pads and more controls are great, but I've bought the Launchpad Mini and I'm extremely happy with it. It works with everything, including the iPad/iPhone. I don't see anything that the Pro does that the Mini couldn't do with a bit more tweaking. Also, if you have the money to buy a Pro, then surely you have other equipment that when connected together will do the same job as a Mini. It's a good upgrade Novation, but did we really need it? 

[JBart]

Yes,  but does it occupy another control surface slot?

[raphexe]

Waiting for the Launchkeypad pro S Kontrol mini mkII

[ArMusic]

can it be bus powered only? looks cool though

[salmonito]

How "hard" was it to add undo, arm, etc. buttons to early launchpad?...

[JeffTuneK]

Can't hate on this one. I like it! But I already have too much gear *Sigh*

[pastagoras]

i already copped the mini about a week ago :( *flips it into the air*

[Pandabearwin]

It's more like ableton push to be honest. I'll only upgrade from my launchpad S if they implement RGB into the launchpad I know and love.

[dejajackson]

Basically Novation saw the Ableton Push and thought wow that looks cool let's make our own version of that XD

[juangui]

Does the launchpad pro works with Mac OS X 10.7?

[Mataeli]

Does this also work with FL Studio 11?

[lupushi]

Hi~
I'm a nube of lunchPad.
Could I output sound only by using lunchPad without a laptop?

[darnell]

Anybody got any idea what the white controller on his upper left with all the knobs is?

[MerijnSandvliet]

Is Launchpad-Pro really helping on this version of Launchpad?
