setting up launchpad in live 7

Post by nate_D » Sun Nov 01, 2009 6:57 pm

there isn't an option for the launchpad as a control surface in preferences/midi sync. i tried apc 40 but it just lights up a couple of random pads.

Wonder if it would work if someone gave them the midi remote scripts from 8.0.8...

it has nothing to do with max4Live. AFAIK yes on the secret handshake.

from the posts today I don't think there's a version of Live 7 that supports the Launch Pad, you have to use the Live 8 that shipped with it or a demo version. no word from Ableton on this yet.
