Product Description

The second edition of the Launchpad Mini has been given a brand new sleeker look, and other enhancements that build on that fantastic launchpad design.

If you're an Ableton Live user, you haven't properly experienced the power of this DAW until you've tried a Launchpad. Displaying your session on 64 multicoloured pads, it offers a brand new way of composing and performing in Ableton, with in depth control.

The Launchpad Mini is not only the most compact and transportable way of owning a Launchpad, it's also the cheapest, offering a great way to try Launchpad for yourself and see what all the fuss is about. It's got the full functionality of the Launchpad, the only difference is that it's just over 22% smaller. 

If you do eventually want to move on to the bigger versions like the launchpad Pro, your faithful Launchpad mini won't be chucked in a useless box of cables and outdated gear that's no longer in use. Instead you can connect it to your new launchpad and use them together for an even more powerful setup!

Here's what Novation say about the Launchpad Mini:

Trusted Customer2nd May 2021

Great fun to use and intuitive, but as a beginner with the Launchpad I found myself seriously held back by the lack of a useful manual for FL Studio users. Trawling through YouTube videos I eventually managed to construct some mental maps of what was going on, and I'm now able to use it in exactly the gestural, spontaneous way I envisaged, but having to basically write my own manual for the thing was a drawback.
