Novation Launchpad Pro MK3 - The COMPLETE Guide | Part 2: Sequencer

[@TheOneAndOnlySecrest]

This is by far the best launchpad tutorial I've ever seen. Thx for your great work

[@GetintheMix]

Glad you like it!

[@ChristiaanEngelsma]

I have to look at this again for at least 10 times, but it is by far the best tutorial yet! Thanks!

[@mankismelbournejay]

You guys make ace tutorials, funny as and straight to the point on the learning side. Well edited as well.👏👏👏

[@adambartier6143]

Well, how beautifully the boy danced :) Thanks for the tutorial, good job.

[@verlx4448]

I would totally hang out with these guys. You got a new ultra fan, thank you for the awesome walkthroughs.

[@GetintheMix]

Much appreciated - glad you like them!

[@ceverett5972]

I am encouraged about my purchase as your tutorial overview has robust content but is easy to follow. Outstanding! Thanks. More!

[@edgarochoa2751]

feeling the same here !!

[@simonmcg23]

Great tutorial.. what about sequencing chords that have been set up in the chord editor?

[@Kacey_Jaymes]

Absolutely phenomenal video. Thank you so much for this; coupled with the reference manual, this made the transition from my LPX a LOT smoother! LOL

[@bobmylan9434]

Great I finally understood sequencer 😄 thanks a lot awesome video

[@TeleporterM11]

I just bought mine. I want to see more especially about sequencing the Summit with it. I want to see all the detailed midi and audio connections too.

[@shareefsteele4486]

This was an amazing tutorial. Thank you so much!!!

[@shrugbyofficial]

this is the best guide other ones miss the lil things thank u

[@ColibriRafael]

I been searching for the perfect standalone sequencer and tried a lot to replace my live x launchpad mini workflow .. just discovered it has a sequencer and I’m sold

[@sidneylutara9786]

Great video, thanks a lot.

[@ascendria]

This was informative and entertaining and I want it even more now

[@GetintheMix]

Great to hear! ...you should get it! 👀

[@lindonrooms8905]

Yes.... this is gunna be my new toy from now. Can’t wait

[@jackflintmusic]

Nice guys, thanks a lot.

[@BsYtHandle]

Discluded? Great that you showed us how to use it with Ableton but what about using it without?

[@ryleyklima5400]

This is so awesome, i followed along making some whack beats. Thanks for the fun n easy to follow videos yall!

[@GetintheMix]

Sweet, glad to help!

[@myceliumtechno]

Can you record into the Launchpad sequencer with Chord Mode?

[@marshalsea000]

This is so useful. Although I can't seem to get mine into @13:21 Sequnecer Mode, which sounds like something Arnie would be involved in, He wants our kicks, our bass, and our random hihat sequences.

[@Nilz4FR]

6:49 I don't know how you multi select. This does not work on my MK3. Mind sharing the settings? I have to manually activate both (holding STRG) within Ableton :(

[@ginotubbo1531]

can you insert or record velocity and pressure information from the pads in the sequence steps?

[@tadasmajeris]

now only thing left to cover is CUSTOM MODE. would love if you made a video on that :)

[@JuliusUnscripted]

hi great video! :) Is there a way to clear a whole sequence pattern with one button press? (instead of having to press every step to clear everything)

[@strangersun7721]

Thanks for the video. Can you record into the sequencer unquantized? I'm a big fan of the Circuit workflow and that was possible with a more recent firmware. Hoping it is here too.

[@PatrickWard4]

That random mode could be helpful for metal songs where there are breakdowns that focus on unique and sometimes "random" or interesting rhythms.

[@tobrsun]

Lol I watched this fully multiple times and still messed up the part to save the project, now my project is sent to the midi spirit realm!:(😅

[@philziedler1559]

Smooth operator! :-)

[@kellymelrose8527]

so how many sounds does it have if u just use it as a stand-alone sequencer ?.. great video.. very helpful

[@GetintheMix]

The Launchpad has 16 separate MIDI channels. It's important to note the Launchpad doesn't make any sounds on it's own, but rather operates as a sequencer for your other bits of gear.

[@kellymelrose8527]

@@GetintheMix thank you ..i bought one but find it too complex for me , a beginner ..should have bought the basic version i guess..

[@tomfoolery4077]

I would like to know if it is possible to use the sequencer AND live loop in ableton at the same time. Say I had one person using the Launchpad pro using 4 tracks in ableton , then another person using 4 tracks in the same ableton glove set doing different instruments and creating clips. Is this possible?

[@joshhillarious]

When I change between channels at the bottom just like you do it doesn't change to the different midi's I have set up. I don't understand :( The colours change like yours but even if I have a drum beat synth and a bass sound on different midi's in my ableton when I click the different channels it just stays on the drums ?

[@javest]

It is possible to setup LP3 to do midi merge from midi din IN to midi din OUT?

[@philipfrosslingmusic]

Is it possible to mute individual pads on the drum rack? Sometimes when you jam its quite nice to break the groove down in reverse to frame the track

[@DopamineOverload]

For the Scale/Notes mode in the Sequencer, does it reflect the settings made in the regular Notes mode? Thanks!

[@Nilz4FR]

When I am in the Sequencer Steps mode: Is there any way I can change the "instruments/channels" without having to go over the Sessions/Record Arm Tab? I would love to "record/add" different Instruments to the 32 Sequencer Grid with simply just selecting the next instrument/channel via the small colored buttons from (the second row) at the bottom. Big help. Thanks!

[@P.Gillett]

i would also like to know, did you figure that out yet?

[@cutterwm]

@@P.Gillett SAMEEE!

[@Romenet310]

did you figure this out?

[@Nilz4FR]

@@Romenet310 Nope. I gave up...so unintuitive!

[@tiagofcoelho]

Hey, maybe you've found it by now, but on your Launchpad Pro you can go to Session > Press/Hold Record Arm > Simultaneously press the tracks you want to control. That way you can have several tracks armed and control them via the sequencer's 4 channel interface. Needless to say it's advised to set each track with a different MIDI Channel, as to avoid overlap.

[@mitadonac91]

Hello, i have a question. 🙂 I have Novation Launchpad pro mk3 and i need help. I’m use sequencer in drum mode and make whole beat with multiple samples there. In that case i have few samples at one step (example kick and snare). My question is can i use probabilty option on that step only on snare, or probabilty option only work on that step with all of elements on it? Tnx!

[@gonegoing]

Is it possible to change the notes & color of the drum pads in the sequencer layout? 4x4x grid of pads currently all orange with preset notes - I would like to apply a saved custom pad layout

[@josiahwells7442]

Thank you!

[@Deokchoon.2023]

thank you ~ (감사합니다 )

[@Talentocubano]

Can I use it with the Akai mpc live ?

[@mungomidge1090]

Just bought one of these and your videos are very useful! One question - On the probabality setting you said that choosing just the very left pad of the row of 8, it would set it to an 18% chance of playing, would it not be 12.5% per each button as there are 8 buttons so they would be 12.5% 25% 37.5% 50% 62.5% 75% 87.5% 100%

[@GetintheMix]

Yes it seems that was a slight error on our part - sorry! You're on the right lines. Novation round these figures up though, so it would be 13%, 25%, 38%, 50%, 63%, 75%, 88%, 100%. Hope that helps and thanks for pointing out the error.

[@DjEikoymusiclab]

what other daw can you use it? does it have midi out?

[@redbirdsaraceno]

My undo redo buttons do not work even when i press shift first . Its really annoying not having undo redo to the point of i stopped trying to use the mk3 as a sequencer and just use my push 1. I have reinstalled the firmware a few times now and still no fix.

[@loganstinson2124]

Which one do yall recommend the pro or the MK 3?

[@DaveShindig]

Question - Can you preload samples and use them after the launchpad has been disconnected from the PC? Also, is it possible to create your own scales? Do they have to be heptatonic? Are odd time signatures compatable?

[@GetintheMix]

There is no on-board storage on the launchpad and requires either a computer or connected hardware (such as a synth) to be getting audio. We understand the scales to be as they are and not changeable. As for the odd time signatures, we're not sure on that one! May be best to contact Novation, and if not and they might consider it in a firmware update.

[@MegaTwistD]

Yes you can change the time signature by changing the pattern size and changing the time signature in ableton

[@pwiggie2701]

my session mode light isn't lit up and i also cannot access it either - does anyone have a solution to this? much thanks🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@armchairnomad]

Sounds odd...but try flipping the USB connector attached to the Launchpad.

[@TeleporterM11]

Where are my projects saved or stored and how do you name them.

[@GetintheMix]

When you save a project, you save it to one of the 64 pads on the launchpad as shown in the video. These are not named, just assigned their designated pad. You can however back your projects up online using Novation Components here: components.novationmusic.com/ Not 100% sure but this may give you the option to name them.

[@TeleporterM11]

GetInTheMix Is there a desktop version of the Novation component software.

[@dksarj]

nice

[@machinesworking]

Good tutorial, the only complaint is your well lit room. The camera barely picks up the colors from the pads on the Launchpad. You basically have to squint like an 80 year old at the computer screen to see what you're doing. Maybe next time less direct light on the Launchpad? :)

[@TheRealDanMac]

Straining my eyes to see the pads

[@melee3251]

Can the "print to clip" function also print the pattern to Ableton? #printToclip

[@GetintheMix]

That is indeed what the Print To Clip function does, it pastes the MIDI pattern into Ableton :)

[@melee3251]

GetInTheMix to clarify, I was asking about printing the entire “pattern chain” of a song rather than printing each 32 step sequence clip individually, one at a time. but thanks anyway 😀
