Re: launchpad is crap dont buy it
LoL. I'm imagining Novation cutting a really good deal on thousands of USB 1.1 ports that had been salvaged from a warehouse fire in 2002....
LP is fantastic. The right size, the right price, and the right functionality.
But, I don't like that double click feel it has, but that can largely ignored. I also don't like hue of orange LED, the user 2 button is labeled unfashionably 'user 2', and it's too light weight to take it seriously.
So I opened it up and filled spaces with fishing weights. Now it feels like a real bit if kit when I pick it up. Also, I inserted squares of colored cellophane under the orange buttons. Looks great!
Now LP is perfect.

I have had parts on order with Novation for over 2 years for my Supernova2. They constantly tell me 2 weeks. Terrible company with worse service.

hey john gordon: now that you've fixed your problem by installing the driver, could you edit your the name of your thread in order to not mislead readers of this forum?

Re: launchpad is crap dont buy it
My buddy totally just bought one because your thread here told him not to. He's such a bad boy! I asked him what he was rebelling against and he just shrugged and said "What you got?"
