Template: Novation Launchpad X (Generation MK3) (Programmers mode)
This is the controller template, when you set the Launchpad X into programmer’s mode.
All MIDI is assigned to that factory mode already.
You have to set the Launchpad X into programmer’s mode via SYSEX commands and you may have to restart the script in order to connect to the factory mode.
Awesome, thanks for contributing this Florin.
I’ll add it to our list of controller template. It will be available directly in CSS shortly.
The naming of your file and forum post has made this a bit confusing lol,
which controller is it for?
Launchpad X
Launchpad Pro Mk3
Launch Control XL
Hello John, 🙂
Glad to hear that!
The template is for
Launchpad XÂ (firmware version 2 and upwards)
Novation has 3 hardware versions of the Launchpad X. I am using the 3rd one, which is MK3. But that term is not listed on the novationmusic’s homepage like this. I think, the template will be compatible to all hardware versions, as the CC/channel assigments is put into the firmware.
Best wishes
Florin
P.S.: Yes I’m sorry…  Launchpad XL is confusing… it’s Launchpad X  🙂
Technically, there’s only one hardware version of the Launchpad X, but it is part of the “Mk 3” generation of Launchpad/Launchkey/related products, so the Mk3 delineation is still appropriate.
…and a useful bit of future proofing, in case the Mk 4 line includes another Launchpad X.
(entirely possible. I’m guessing Mk4 adds MPE to Pro and X, and velocity/aftertouch to the Mini. that’s about the size of an incremental upgrade which users of platforms would consider replacing their hardware over.)

Thanks for everything. I’ve changed the title just slightly to reflect your comment on that 😉
