**Fixed**: Launchpad and Korg Nano do not play well together

Post by nowtime » Thu Mar 18, 2010 4:19 am

I thought it was my USB hub. But upon further experimenting I found that Live 8 + Launchpad POPS and clicks when my Korg Nanopad is plugged in. Badly.

There are no pops/clicks with the Launchpad alone. And none when I plug in BCR and BCF2000 on top of that. But as soon as I add the Nano into the equation = no go. Various configuarations with and without the hub work with the LP and Behringers.

Weird??

I recently added a Launchpad to my setup, and initially had problems getting the nanoKontrol to work with Live, but never noticed any audio issues, purely that Live was only recognizing the nano OR the launchpad, but not both.

I am using a powered USB hub, and everything else (Maschine, BCD3000 and MIDI Keyboard) was being recognized by Live, but not the nano (all of these devices were coming through the same USB hub.

After messing around with the Midi Remote Input/Output settings, Control surface scripts etc I finally got all of these devices playing nicely together in Live. Definitely no audio pops/clicks throughout my experimenting with different controls etc.

Must say though, I think the nanoKontrol is the perfect partner to the launchpad! :D

i have run launchpad plus nanokontrolmyr running off the same hub without a problem. Does seen like it could be multifactoral clickage. Ak! Are drivers installed to different usb ports?

Same here. Launchpad and nanoKontrol (myr) working fine together.

I'm using a Nanopad on my MBP, and I borrowed a LaunchPad on appro from a music store to test recently. In the week I had them running together, I didn't notice any problems.

Yay! I fixed it.

In prefs, I had remote output going to my Nanopad. Turned it off, runs sweet as sunshine.

Now I'm gonna try adding a second LP cuz sometimes more is better!

^^ Good to hear! I've had this problem too in the past with USB controllers. Having them enabled as outputs can sometimes lead to really squirrely behaviour. For this reason I have a screengrab of my MIDI prefs stored with my gigging set, and I always double-check it if I've moved from the studio to live and changed my setup.
