Live Lite enough for LP pro MK3?

Post by Bheems » Sun May 02, 2021 10:37 am

Hello,

I was looking at the Launchpad Pro Mk3, but was surprised it only comes with Live Lite.

Is this enough for the LP, when also using external synths? I read that in order to play external synths you need both a midi track and an audio track. With 2 synths this leaves you with 4 tracks for everything else.

Or am I missing something?

It is only a teaser they give away...... They hope you buy standard or suite along the way...... :D

So that adds another 500 - 700 to the Launchpad?
Then I think there are better options for that kind of money. :D

Yep that would set you back roughly $550,= for Suite. But then again you will have a lot by owning that!

Yeah, cant argue with that. Problem is that I don't really need the 70GB extra's. I just want the workflow. I already have a lot of extra's from my Maschine and bought VST's and huge collected sample library

And pricewise, Push 2 is almost the same price since Intro is 80 euro's over here.

Thats coming closer to what I want. Was orientating for an Akai MPC One, but the LP Pro 3 and Standard combined are around that same price.

Does ABleton ever have discount deals that are worth waiting for?
