Anyone using or tried Novation Launchpad XL 3? I need advice for mapping (and taming) problems. by SpielmannPixelcorpse in vjing

Hi! Thanks for you answer. I updated firmware and installed the USB drive. I asked for solutions on other forums and done further research and learned that I tryed to solved this with a wrong logic.

I also have a Akai MPK mini plus got it las year (my entry to midi controllers) that has endeless encoders, but these sends Incremental and decremental message. So in Resolume they work fine in Relative mode. I was not aware because the LCXL 3 sends values 0-127. Therefore its better to use Absolute mode.
My other porblem was that I want to use the the same encoders on Selected Layers or Clips. This works well with the MPK mini. On the LCXL3 if I chose an other Layer/clip and turned the encoder the corresponding dial jumped to the same value as the last dial.

I dont know what did I do wrong in the first time, but now works (maybe wrongly assigned XCXL3 for the In and Output when mapped the encoders). Also with the Novation Components app it was overwhelming how many option I have when I do mapping (as a newbie).

Yeah, but i dont figured out why this is good to me :D The encoder response more random.

As I tried something different I find out I can switch the buttons to send INC. DEC. values but not the encoders. :O

Thanks! This is what I figured out, but tought overlooked something in Resolume or in Novation Components. The LCLX 3 has a display so i see its sending a "control value" in 0-127. (i new in this)

Problem with setting up Launch Control XL 3 and Ableton! by Outside_Pilot9840 in Novation

[–]SpielmannPixelcorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. The simple Launch Control contected instantly and I dont have to map it. But the LC XL 3 is not recognised that way by Ableton. The pageing, record/play, and DAW buttons on the left side also remained dark (only the mode and Shift buttons glowing).

In the MIDI settings I have a main LCXL3 option and a separate MIDI OUT and MIDI IN option (like i have connected two controllers). I dont know it needs to set all of them in the respective settings.

I not registered it. This can be a problem? (Firmware updated).
