Product Description

Launch Control 3 is a compact, powerful control surface designed to bring hands-on precision to modern music production and performance. Whether you are working in the studio, on stage, or in a hybrid setup, it delivers intuitive control over your DAW, plug-ins, and external MIDI hardware. With 16 smooth, endless rotary encoders, eight assignable buttons, and a crisp OLED display, every adjustment is clear, responsive, and placed exactly where you need it.

Deep integration with major DAWs, including Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, and Cubase, ensures a seamless workflow straight out of the box, while Mackie HUI support extends compatibility even further. USB-C connectivity keeps setup simple, and 5-pin MIDI In, Out, and Out2 Thru ports allow Launch Control 3 to control hardware instruments and effects with or without a computer attached.

Custom Modes created in Novation Components let you map parameters exactly to your needs and store up to seven personalised layouts. Adjustable encoder acceleration and RGB indicators provide visual feedback that matches your session, keeping creativity flowing without interruption. Compact, robust, and portable, Launch Control 3 is the ideal creative control surface for producers and performers who want fast access, flexible routing, and a premium hardware feel in any environment.

Features
  • Deep DAW Integration:
    Seamless control with Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, plus Mackie HUI support for fast, familiar workflow in any studio setup.
  • Flexible MIDI Connectivity:
    USB-C and 5-pin MIDI In, Out, and Out2 Thru ports allow direct control of software and hardware with comprehensive routing and filtering options.
  • Crisp OLED Feedback:
    The clear OLED display shows real-time parameter values directly above the controls, keeping navigation intuitive and adjustments precise during production and performance.

Hands-On Control for Studio and Stage:

Launch Control 3 is built for musicians who want tactile interaction with their music. Its 16 endless encoders provide smooth, accurate control over pans, sends, instruments, and effects, while eight assignable buttons handle track focus, solo, arm, mute, or custom functions. The compact footprint fits easily into any desktop or live rig without sacrificing power. Whether shaping sounds in the studio or performing on stage, the responsive hardware feel keeps you connected to your session. RGB indicators and adjustable acceleration curves make every movement natural and predictable, helping you work faster while staying focused on creativity rather than menus or mouse clicks.

Custom Mapping and Hybrid Workflows:

With Novation Components, Launch Control 3 adapts to any workflow. You can assign MIDI parameters to encoders and buttons, then store up to seven Custom Modes for instant recall. This makes it easy to control multiple instruments, plug-ins, and external effects from one surface. For hybrid setups, combine DAW control with hands-on hardware routing using the 5-pin MIDI connections. Powered via USB-C, Launch Control 3 can operate with or without a computer, giving producers and performers the freedom to build flexible systems that evolve with their creative process.

Premium Design with Clear Visual Feedback:

Redesigned with a robust, modern chassis, Launch Control 3 delivers a premium hardware experience. The smooth, endless encoders feel precise under the fingers, while the eight buttons offer confident switching and triggering. A bright OLED display sits above the controls, presenting parameter names and values in real time so you always know exactly what you are adjusting. This visual clarity reduces guesswork and speeds up sessions, especially when working with complex projects. Combined with reliable USB-C power and a Kensington security slot, Launch Control 3 is built for both portability and long-term professional use.
