Set up your Novation Launchpad in Logic Pro
You can control many Live Loops functions and mixing parameters in Logic Pro with a Novation Launchpad. You can trigger and stop cells and scenes, mute, solo, and arm tracks, and adjust volume and sends. You can extend Launchpad functionality by adding multiple Launchpad devices to your setup. Logic supports the following Novation Launchpad models:
Launchpad
Launchpad S
Launchpad Mini
Launchpad Mini MK3
Launchpad MK2
Launchpad Pro
Launchpad X
The following sections apply to all Launchpad models, except as noted.
Set up Novation Launchpad
In most cases, when you connect a Launchpad to your Mac, the device is automatically recognized and appears in the Control Surface Setup window. If the Launchpad does not appear there, follow these steps to set it up manually.
Make sure that your Launchpad is connected to your computer, using a USB MIDI interface.
Choose Logic Pro > Control Surfaces > Setup.
Choose New > Install in the Setup window.
Select your Launchpad model in the Install window.
Click the Add button.
Select the added device in the Setup window, then set both the Output and Input Port parameters to the appropriate setting for your device.
Logic Pro sets the Orientation parameter to 90º Right in the Setup window’s Device inspector. Using this orientation, you can use the Launchpad with the scene buttons at the bottom, mirroring the position of the scene triggers in Live Loops. This document refers to Launchpad devices set up in this way. You can change the Orientation parameter to 90º Right. The current orientation is indicated by the device icon in the Setup window.
