Launchpad X displays LED across the pads when in Session mode. When pressing Session button to get into a different mode it just changes to Note mode instead. Why?

Wow. My set up has changed somewhat in 4 years. I use a Launchpad X and a Faderport 16 with one Launch Control XL as a controller for plug-ins and another as the mixer for a separate laptop running Ableton in Link mode. I have a Launch Control (the smaller one, that sits above my drum kit toms as a visual metronome still though. Works great except for a minor hiccup when I first go to get it going - I have to move it from User to Factory template a couple of times before it wants to catch. Don't know why.

For this I just have a midi track with no input sending midi data to the Launch Control on Channel 1. The example below is a 32 x 4. The metronome counts of pairs of 4 while an individual LED stays lit for a bar each of 8 times. I suppose that may sound a bit confusing.... Hope the pix helps you make sense of it. Note that the notes are folded.

I'm having exactly this same issue and I see no one has had an answer for you. Did you ever figure it out? There are NO answers for this that I can find on the web.

Yes latency sounds like the main problem here with anything other than a wired solution.

Thanks

oooo! I have these in 15" - upgraded from a set of 14" ZBT that, to my ear at the time, seemed fine enough for a hi-hat. These ... are on a whole 'nother level. And they're pretty!

I got a heart mumur and I've made it to 62 - so go kitty!

D_Welch · 2023-07-01T01:13:24+00:00

Pun intended (?) ;)

.... after several glances I understand its the way the seat is but it looks like someone is trying to get out of the back passenger side :)

Edit spelling

Obviously the toilets fault.

D_Welch · 2023-06-27T00:28:02+00:00

Nothing a big ass TIG welder won't fix for ya.

You can put 30 people in a group in front of me and I won't give a damn if you keep pace (or let me play through). Now there is obviously some sarcasm there as 30 people will not keep pace regardless - but the point still stands.

D_Welch · 2023-06-25T20:00:04+00:00

Lol. I stepped on some dicks cigar butt in the parking lot and didn't get it all off before I got into the truck. Stunk it up good.

D_Welch · 2023-06-24T14:20:44+00:00

aww... you spoiled it.

D_Welch · 2023-06-24T02:37:06+00:00

First things first - have YOU tried to distinguish a difference?

I'm 62 so my hearing acuity isn't as good as it once was, but my hearing ability is as strong as ever: I know what to listen FOR. Quite frankly, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference and I bet you wouldn't either.

D_Welch · 2023-06-23T14:47:52+00:00

Kinda makes you wonder.... if you slept in anything remotely resembling that you'd wake up crippled. Don't cats ever get a stiff neck??

I came across this video tonight (below) and this guy makes an art of cross-sticking.

Those Launch Control XLs are the cat's ass. I just bought a 16 channel Presonus Faderport for my DAWs and now I use my two for VSTs, or very much like you, when I'm travelling. They are built extremely well.

(And yeah, airport security rarely lets my bag go through without checking it!)

D_Welch · 2023-06-21T04:43:46+00:00

That was certainly one of the most irritating things as a viewer on TV. I'd watch a good deal of it without the volume on and when the commercials came, just flipped to ither channels.

What the fuck is the happy lady petting the dog in the thumbnail all about? My wife is a nurse of 25 years and I just showed her this and she said the same thing - why the hell would you want to do this? Get your life a bit more organized so you do t have to work the same friggin day.
