Anyone tried DJ’ing with just a Launchpad?
Anyone? It seems possible in so many ways…
Easily done with Ableton. Also easily done with Traktor. :u
+1… u can emulate virtual faders on a launchpad using my own midimasher or midikatapult for traktor in the same way that automap+ableton do it.
i much prefer to have actual pots+faders as a mixer - but in a pinch i could do everything i needed in a few launchpad pages/layers. even a nanokontrol or lpd8 are fine to add in some rotary goodness ofc…

would be my choice for using traktor

or this with nonome for a standalone solution
looks nice but uses max/msp i guess? not cheap software…
The runtime that comes with the trial is free and doesn’t expire!
cool… i’ve kept meaning to have a look at the nonome stuff. will have to give it a try.
there again i can do any/all i need with my own midimasher and i wouldn’t want even more software sitting between traktor and the launchpad. would be like me still using DaRouter with my scs.3d when using midimasher as well 
Is the latest version of your midimasher out? The one with the extra LP stuff?
not with a launchpad specific config yet no - i’m aiming to do it over the weekend. if you mean the one with twitch style controls and multi layers etc.
it has supported the launchpad right from the start, there’s a devices/launchpad.lua file that defines what midi is sent/recv by the launchpad for all the buttons.
but if u want a config that works out of the box you’ll need to wait a few days. btw i’ll only be updating the thread in my sig, so some people see it but not too many, so i don’t get asked the same issues over and over in case of problems
when i’m 100% happy with it i’ll also create a new thread ofc.
Do a search for Octop4d by S4racen
you can use a lp as a standalone but it really shines next to a mixer
