I want to use the launchpad for clip launch and mixing and I want to use the Nanokontrol for controlling effects and instruments.

Launchpad works terrific but I am having a lot of difficulty with the nanokontrol. are any of you using these controllers this way and if so how are you setting it up?

thanks for any help you can offer

I`m using the nanokontrol a lot with the midi remote scripts , which control the 8 macroknobs of a rack.
And in combination with that very clever script:

check out native control by stray.

Depends how deep you want to go - what sort of problems are you having?

I found that when I first used it I loaded up it's automapper software and messed around for ages til I realised that for straightforward stuff like mapping sliders / knobs I could just use the Live midi learn and not use the automap software at all.

If you do want to go deeper, then yeah - have a look at the scripts the other dudes in this thread mentioned.
