Novation LaunchPad Demo Night
Where : Spank Records, 395 Bourke St, Darlinghurst, NSW
When : 6pm Thursday 11th February, 2010
In conjunction with Novation and Innovative Music, we're holding a FREE instore
demo night focusing on one of the most advanced + progressive controllers for Ableton
Live: Launchpad, presented by Ableton Certified Trainer + Novation product specialist,
Adrian Pickard.
Jointly designed by Ableton and Novation, Launchpad places Ableton Live at your
fingertips. Whether you’re a DJ, performing musician or studio producer, Launchpad
gives you all the control you need to truly ‘play’ Live.
With a multi-colour 64-button grid and dedicated scene launch buttons, Launchpad
is purpose built for triggering and manipulating clips in Live, whilst also offering
a totally new way of controlling Ableton Live’s mixer.
Launchpad’s buttons can be used to sketch out beats with drum racks, and they can
also be assigned to other functions in Live using Ableton’s ‘Learn’ mode. The demonstrations
will focus on specific areas designed to get the most out of Launchpad, including:
- What makes Launchpad unique?
- Set-up
- Functionality + control
- Session, mixer + user modes in depth
- Programming Drum Racks
- Assigning MIDI + editing ranges
- Visual feedback
- Custom FX control
Also part of the session:
- Tips + tricks
- Q+A session
- Novation prizes + giveaways
- FREE BEER!!!
