Launch

Everything you need to get hands-on with your sound

This is where it all began. The Launchpad was the birth of the grid system that fuelled an evolution in electronic music. It's time you joined in.

Grab a Launchpad. Now you can launch your clips from a grid of pads that match your session. Add a Launch Control XL and take hands-on control of your filters, effects and instruments too.

Want more grid? Just add another Launchpad - or perhaps a Launchpad Pro, which you can play like an instrument or use to control your other MIDI hardware. Not got much desk space? Try a Launchpad Mini instead.

All our Launch products can be chained together. They all integrate seamlessly with Ableton Live without any setup, and all come with Ableton Live Lite. They're all bus-powered via USB and class compliant, so you can just plug them in and start playing.

Custom modes

Use Novation Components to customise mappings and control anything MIDI easily from your Launchpad.

Ableton Live integration

Quickly launch clips and scenes, never lose ideas with Capture MIDI, and access performance controls like stop, solo, mute, record arm, volume, pan, and sends to dynamically control your music, no mouse needed.
