Launchpad S vs Launchpad Classic from Novation

[@targetemployee7515]

1:18 "i dont really have another ass so i cant demonstrate how this works" xD

[@Jemeneye7]

Under 'MIDI to", I had 'Launchpad' selected as output and the default of "chanel 1" selected. I changed the chanel to 'Chanel 5' and now i have LED feedback!! on my PC, I would get LEDs on chanel 1 so i never noticed this... I'm surprised more people haven't run into this problem especially with the all the YT videos that don't mention 'chanel 5' when explaining how to get the coveted LED feedback in USER 1. Thanks for your help man.

Cool! I thought that the only one that was able to get connected to the ipad without a usb powered hub was the mini launchpad so i was sad about the size of the buttons on the mini version. Thanks for the great info about the hardwear:)

[@christophervaughan6897]

OMG I cracked up when he said "My personal favorite thing about the Ass"

Which is the best?

[@sunnyhaair]

I recently had the same problem. Have you tried this - On the MIDI track that is running your LED feedback where it says "MIDI to" there is a "channels" tab that defaults to "All channels" sometimes you have to set it to a particular MIDI channel - usually 5 or 6. I'm not entirely sure why, because it used to work fine for me set to All channels, but I guess maybe an Ableton update or something changed that.

Great review! Very quick and told me everything I wanted to know c:

[@Digiphex]

Thanks for the comparo. Why they had to downgrade from sleek black is to dishwater gray is beyond me. Removing the arrow from the buttons I also hate when they could have shrunken down the outer border instead.

[@braydenfell1261]

do you notice the flickering in person or is it just on camera

[@Jemeneye7]

I switched from PC to MAC and now my Launchpad (not S), is not working the same as it did on my PC. LED Feedback no longer works on my new macbook pro (never had a LED Feedback problem when i used it on my PC). You're obviously very knowledgebale and I hope you can help me. I'm hoping to eradicate the problem i don't have to upgrade to an S or dish out more money for a PUSH. I'm hoping this problem isn't bc my new macbook isn't too advanced for regular launchpad. Please help. thanks

Could you theoretically set up an Automap that would let you control mixing and panning on REASON?????

[@wiltonfriberg9062]

do you have to push down harder on the buttons on the mini than the S?

[@Seledrex]

This was very helpful because Novation's website doesn't explain much besides the Ipad compatibility.

[@TLOWNSU]

If I want to start out to make my own mixes should I get a launch pad or is there a better place for a beginner to start?

[@sunnyhaair]

Hey, Jan! In this video I'm running Launchpad95. If you check on the Controllerism youtube channel (or just search "Launchpad95") there is a video of me explaining how it works.

[@firasfisal2332]

OO I have a question... which one is better Launchpad S vs Launchpad original vs Launchpad mini

[@bomb-de-dyl]

so the only real difference is you can use it on your iphone and has brighter lights and looks slightly different. what would you say is better value? (I think the original is around £120 whilst the s is £140)

[@rotten77]

Hi, I have Launchpad Classic and when I switch to "User 1" there is no light-up pads. Do you use some other than original drivers/Ableton scripts, Max4Live or some other settings?

[@jinyuliu1817]

Thank you for the review. It is very helpful

[@Main_home]

Yo, guys! why original looks better than S?

[@sunnyhaair]

I think the S is a better value. Simply for the lack of rolling shutter on camera via the LEDs in it if nothing else. I don't actually think they're producing the original anymore. So, if you're able to find one and the differences don't matter to you, go for the original.

[@tobeypauling6254]

how do you make it so when you play an instrument it fully lights up the pad and has the root notes?

[@sunnyhaair]

I'm using Launchpad95 in this video. It's a free MIDI remote script that adds that functionality. Check out our channel and you'll find of video walkthrough of that as well as where to download it!

[@johnconnelly5352]

Is the original launchpad android compatible?

[@jasonsixtyone]

great video

[@Noah1000TV]

Is the Launchpad s still good?

[@sunnyhaair]

Definitely! But I prefer the Launchpad Mini now.

[@sunnyhaair]

Nick The Dutchlander The size, and feel of the buttons (not to mention the price) make it a better value for me personally. However, if you're more of a finger drummer the bigger buttons on the S might be better.

[@Frezcaritafeliz]

who is the best of this?

[@mikewhiteman23]

thanks man

[@jasonandersen7529]

why is he calling it ass.

[@mammamia4040]

You didn't even pick a winner :( those are the sexiest hands i've ever seen though

[@bomb-de-dyl]

ok, cheers, I'll probably go for the original then :)

[@Arbiterpl]

Is the Launchpad S not an original? Is it fake one?

[@rotten77]

Thx, I know Launchpad95 but I forget about it :-D

[@civilsinisterr8800]

Lol 64 comments, 64 button? Bad joke..

[@reesenamsaiyan9091]

flickering is just on camera

[@lairdriver]

I assigned something to my ass yesterday..but now it is is the toilet. The launchpad is a good device. But the APC40 rules the day.

[@Fartman71]

3:10 More than one ass connected? Lol

[@DJJJandNexight]

Probably will get a Launchpad S

[@jamessullivan5181]

seriously? so there's no other differences at all?

[@GlowboxProduction]

TLOWNSU depends if your producing or not

[@skudnevsky]

this script 95 working on live 9.1 and 85 on live 8.4. led fedback is not working

[@sunnyhaair]

:( Be sure to check the download site occasionally and make sure you've got the latest version installed. Sometimes with whatever updates and things happen things get a little weird. Henri always takes care of them though!

[@MikeSeedsMusic]

sounds like your saying ass instead of s lol. Anyway thanks for the video :)

[@DanePULEZ]

"Launchpad ASS"

[@blazinasain545]

Down to the point, I like it, but why do you sound like the most depressed person ever

[@chunkysucks]

The paint job on the original launchpad is better but the features on the S are better imo
