About this deal

The Launchpad Mini Mk 3’s about as small as you can get and still be usable. True, the X is more fun for finger drummers, and more ‘playable’ in general thanks to the superior pads, but for basic clip and scene launching, and drum triggering, the Mini works fine, especially now clip colours are visible. Bundled together with the Launchpad Mini is a whole host of wide-ranging software and plug-ins. Pioneering companies such as Softube, Klevgrand and many more have provided you with a selection of their products – granting you the tools needed to increase the variety and quality of your sounds. Logic Pro X 10.5 Live Loops Software Compatibility: Ableton Live (Version 10 or Greater), Launchpad Mini Also Works as a Standard MIDI Controller Ableton Live Lite - The renowned electronic music creation software, with seamless Launchkey integration. With effects, instruments, sounds and all kinds of creative features included – everything you need to make any kind of music. Three Customisable Modes – Components Allow you to Customise Mappings to Suit Your Preferences. Control MIDI from the Launchpad Mini.

Softube Time & Tone Bundle – Consists of Powerful Reverb, Delay, Distortion & Mastering Tool Plug-Ins. In terms of new features, two things stand out. Firstly, the Mk3 now includes RGB colour matching pads, so you have a really accurate representation of what you see in your Live Session. Secondly, and in addition to the Live Session layout, there are three Custom layouts.

Integrated with Ableton Live – Tweak & Control Your Performances Using Mute, Solo & Stop Controls, all Without a Mouse! Launch Clips & Scenes with Just one Button Press. Creative arpeggiator – easy to use but deeply controllable: change rhythm, beat, pattern, octave, gate, and more The SL MkII used Automap software which has been discontinued, you can read more about this here. You may still be able to use this on older systems and can find it here. The Launchpad Mini is perhaps the most user-friendly of the three, and one that is perfectly suited to this kind of on-the-go music-making, yet also works just as well in a home studio context. Made to move, Launchkey Mini brings the best of Novation’s most popular MIDI keyboard controller range to our most compact and portable form factor. Get everything you need to start creating in Ableton Live with a MIDI keyboard controller that'll fit in your bag.

Ableton Live Lite – Popular Electronic-Music Creation Software, Organise, Arrange & Manipulate Your Sounds. Like its siblings it features 64 bright, three-colour pads (arranged 8 x 8) that activate loops, effects and sounds, with a lightning-fast response time (despite not being velocity-sensitive). The customisable performance buttons that run down either side are labelled A–H and 1–8. The unit draws power from your iPad or computer, so leads that would nullify its mobile nature are absent. Impulse range - Impulse was originally used with the Automap software, but has since been updated to use the HUI protocol. Read more about this here.

Klevgrand R0Verb - A hybrid between a simple reverb and a very complex delay in an easy-to-use plug-in. Design your own reverbs and put your sounds in their own unique space. In Logic Pro 10.6, Launchpad X and Launchpad Mini [MK3] devices no longer need to be rotated to properly display the Live Loops grid, as was required in v10.5. However, there are orientation options in Logic’s settings that allow you to choose vertical or rotated arrangement, to suit your preference. This flexibility provides a much more cohesive experience, allowing you to seamlessly jump between different modes. Features In a studio environment the Launchpad Mini works well, boasting effortless integration with Live 9. Clip and scene triggering in Live is a doddle; controlling volumes/sends feels natural and is an organic way of interacting with your projects. The Launchpad Mini comes with Ableton Live Lite, so if you’re new to the DAW you won’t feel left out. Noticeably, Novation has done away with the Ableton branding that the Launchpad S sported, going instead for its own logo and imagery.
