You will need to do this when you first load a session, when you bank tracks (9-16, 17-24 etc.), or when you change from pan to send a, send b etc. To correct for this you may need to turn the control from one end to the other in order to reset the range. This is great if you want to make a small adjustment but you may find you hit the end of the pot’s physical travel before before the virtual control on screen. The pan and send controls don’t have pot pick-up, they move immediately from whatever position they are in. In order to make these work we ‘emulate’ the operation of the encoders in firmware. The Launch Control XL has pots rather than encoders which have an absolute position. HUI is designed to work with encoders for pan and send controls. The controls still work relatively to turn pans left and right. *Due to the Pro Tools HUI implementation, the centre detent of the LaunchControl XL pan pots will not directly correspond to the centre position of Pro Tool’s pan pots. Fixed crash: Sending Sysex Messages with values out of LaunchControl XL´s parameter range to the device Added additional MIDI port "LaunchControl XL HUI" Release notes for Firmware Updater 1.2 (firmware revision 59) A very handy little object.- Added full class compliance (LaunchControl XL now supports use with MIDI-hosts like Kenton "MIDI USB Host" or iConnectivity "iConnect MIDI") Nobody will fetishise over these things, but almost everybody could use one. Although the aforementioned Launchkey Mini is particularly cool with Novation's iOS app, we kept gravitating back to the Control, because of the Ableton Live templates, and its perfect layout for Logic's Smart Controls. The experience is very smooth and the Novation apps run alongside, and in sync with each other and the other Mini controllers an iPad based set-up with two controllers and both apps running in sync - that's a good thing!įor laptop or iOS musicians this Novation adds that all-important tactile control vibe. Of course, the Control will also function with other MIDI apps, but using it with the Novation apps is a no-brainer. The iPad will happily power a single Mini you can use a mains powered USB hub to connect two at once. To connect to an iPad, you need Apple's Camera Connection Kit. Also the Launchkey and the Launchpad Mini use mini-USB to connect, while the Launch Control uses full-size USB. It's not a huge problem either way, but something to ponder when choosing. The pads on Launch Control's sister model, the Launchkey, are velocity sensitive, but the Control's aren't. One thing that could be confusing is the pads. Logic remembers MIDI assignments across projects, so you only need to set this up once. The Control is a perfect companion for Logic Pro X's Smart Controls - 12 on-screen knobs that take over the currently selected device. "The Control is a perfect companion for Logic Pro X's Smart Controls" There's also a dedicated on-screen editor, which adds further flexibility. With user presets as well, the Control made a great little controller for Live. After configuration in Live's Preferences, the device had immediate control over Live, with three separate templates, covering more detailed mixer functions, sends, clip launching, and device control.
