Novation + Innovative Music are pleased to announce a series of product demonstrations, around Australia, focusing on one of the most advanced + progressive controllers for Ableton Live: Launchpad, presented by Ableton Certified Trainer + Novation product specialist, Adrian Pickard.
Jointly designed by Ableton and Novation, Launchpad places Ableton Live at your fingertips. Whether you’re a DJ, performing musician or studio producer, Launchpad gives you all the control you need to truly ‘play’ Live.
With a multi-colour 64-button grid and dedicated scene launch buttons, Launchpad is purpose built for triggering and manipulating clips in Live, whilst also offering a totally new way of controlling Ableton Live’s mixer.
Launchpad’s buttons can be used to sketch out beats with drum racks, and they can also be assigned to other functions in Live using Ableton’s ‘Learn’ mode.
The demonstrations will focus on specific areas designed to get the most out of Launchpad, including:
o What makes Launchpad unique?
o Set-up
o Functionality + control
o Session, mixer + user modes in depth
o Programming Drum Racks
o Assigning MIDI + editing ranges
o Visual feedback
o Custom FX control
o Tips + tricks
o Q+A session
