Novation Launchpad Trick

Novation Launchpad Trick

This is a liitle trick that I found about the launchpad

You can Feedback Your Midi Msg that send to a launchpad Midi-In port
If you don’t understand this I mean How can U Make Launchpad Push It self

Just send MIDI Controller Number 16 (CC16) out then the launcpad will send the same midi message back to it’s input port it self.
I found only CC-16 Vel. 0-127 that mean You got 127 value to do map on traktor
Hope this help

i don’t really understand, can you give an example ?

Kind of like running a loop?

No It’s just how to make the launchpad Push a Invisible button that map to CC16 ch.1
As you know no button on launchpad that have Midi CC number 16 but If you send out Midi CC16 any Velocity then Launchpad will send the midi CC16 and velocity that you send out Back into It’s Input port .. You just map Input Command in traktor To CC16 and then you’ll see what i mean
Ps. this trick Ithink It’s from how Ableton Notify that device is launchpad
ps2.All of Novation Midi Controller that Support Automap have this function but depend on what device eg.RemopteZeroSl can do this but in SysEx Message and it send back sysexe message (default Port2)

Another tips for Launchpad :
-If you in Ableton live You can Switch Between Ableton live Template and Automap by
When you In Ableton Press “USER2 + View buttons” It’s Switch to Automap mode
when you In Automap Press “USER2+User1+View” It’s switch back to Abletonlive mapping

Awesome, i grok this.
