Novation Launch Control Portable USB Midi Contoller

Launch Control is a robust, compact controller with 16 assignable knobs and eight pads – ideal for hands-on control of your mixer, instruments and effects. Designed to partner with Novation Launchpad, Launch Control works with all major music software – and with your iPad. Use Launch Control’s pads to fire off samples while you use the knobs to tweak filters, levels, and effects controls.

Launchpad’s Perfect Partner

Novation Launchpad has changed the way musicians produce and perform music, with instant access to a 64-pad grid of buttons. Launch Control adds 16 knobs, enabling you to transform performances and studio workflow – and another eight three colour Launchpad pads. Get hands-on control of devices in Ableton Live and other software to control, fine-tune, tweak, and express yourself in real time.
