Created a track for resampling. Added about 8 effects, including a Looper at the end.
Use the Launchpad to create a mess of clips at different points/different lengths.
Hit Looper to capture that. Abuse some more effects in the track.
Use LP to create another clip. Use LP to quickly move between my resampled clips.
Fire Looper again.
FFS. Pretty soon I created 2 more Resampling tracks and then had what amounted to a complete mess of sound.
It was pure bliss.

I started a thread here:
http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=129002
to discuss proper USB setup. If anyone knows an already opened thread plz post the
link/URL.

To the user who solved the problem with an additional USB-controller:
would you post the model and company of it?

thank you

After installation of the driver I go to Preferences in Ableton - Midi Sync, where it shows up in the Input/Output folder, but it doesn´t show up in the Control Surface folder, which is crucial. Is it because this version of Ableton does not support Launchpad and installation of 8.1.1 will help? With the Ableton Launchpad Edition it works perfectly, but i want to use it in the full version. Thanks!

I have a unibody mbp and I experience ~100ms lag when launching clips and samples realtime. Even when muting tracks within Launchpad. My padKontrol and Remote SL37 has no such latency at all. And I experience the latency with both usb ports with/without a hub.

This latency renders Launchpad useless for me.
