![]() ![]() ![]() But this is generally a problem for most midi controllers and not specific to a midi controller linked to the deluge. So when performing live there can be jumps in parameter values if you're not careful. Then when a fader or pot that is assigned to a parameter is moved on the XL, the parameter jumps to that value. When switching to a new song the parameter values remain the same as they were when the song was saved. Of course you could just wait until the next firmware release in August when the Deluge will become a USB host and you could just plug the LaunchControl straight into the Deluge. When the Raspberry Pi is plugged into the mains though this isn't a problem. I did however find that my battery pack can't deliver enough power to power the LaunchControl and charge the Deluge so eventually the Deluge runs out of battery. In the photo I've got a battery pack powering the raspberry pi rather than a mains power supply. I'm not claiming to be an expert on this, I'm just relaying the information on that website really so credit goes to Fabio Barbon and his colleagues at Neuma Studio. I tried following the "complete instructions" but it didn't work so I'd recommend sticking to the easy instructions. Something like this Raspberry Pi 3 Case - Black/Grey įollow the instructions labeled "easy instructions" on this website: I'll give you a quick summary of that helps:ġ x Raspberry Pi 3 model b+ Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ It takes a bit of setting up but it's pretty simple to do. I use a Raspberry Pi 3 model b+ as a USB host. You will find yourself up and running in no time.I have my LaunchControl XL hooked up to my deluge and it works great! The setup is intuitive, and doesn’t have a steep learning curve as long as you’re familiar with how Live works. Quickly record a clip, quantize it, and then duplicate it to add some other elements into the mix. These buttons really help streamline the music-making process with the Launchpad Pro. Here, you have buttons to access things like Click On/Off, Undo (and Redo), Session Record, Quantise (the Novation spelling for quantize, in case you were wondering-they’re British), and others. The Live-specific controls live on the Left column. These two extra lines don’t add much to the size or portability of the unit, but do add a wealth of features that really up the Live control side of the device. The Launchpad Pro has those, plus two extra lines of buttons, one down the left side, and one across the bottom. With the standard Launchpad controllers, there is an extra row of buttons across the top, and a column down the right side for accessing extra features such as mix levels and Notes Mode. Obvious additions include velocity-sensitive pads, and some extra buttons for more control, without cluttering the device or compromising on size, cost, durability and ease of travel. Although the Push is a great device in its own right, the Launchpad fills a different niche, and should be seen of what it is:Not a Push emulation with fewer features, but rather, a continuation of the Launchpad family-he next logical step, so to speak. This is where the Launchpad Pro comes in. And, those knobs mean you have to be worried about things breaking. It also costs $599 at the store, double what you’d expect to pay for the Launchpad Pro. ![]() Way too big to just throw in a bag and run. But does that mean that it’s necessarily the better controller for you?Īll those extra features on the Push come at a cost, both financial and spacial. Push has a lot more in the way of at-a-glance features like knobs, screen, ribbon controller, and additional more buttons. ![]()
