Novation Launchpad Praised Again
Posted on 1 Dec 2009 14:07 to category : Music News
Novation's Launchpad recently made history, breaking previous records for the largest selling Novation product of all time.
Amazingly, this achievement was made on pre-sale orders alone.
The Launchpad has recently been receiving yet even more praise. This time, the glowing review was from Sound On Sound Magazine.
The Launchpad was created to make music-making a much more hands on experience.
A 64 button multi-colour grid helps music makers to trigger and manipulate clips within Ableton Live quickly and easily.
Sound on Sound Magazine's reviewer praised the unit for how quickly it can integrate with your system.
"If you already have Live up and running, you can install the Launchpad in a couple of minutes and begin working with it almost immediately."
The Launchpad is simply a "colourful and pleasingly idiosyncratic way to get hands-on with Live", and "encourages the kind of improvisation with patterns and arrangements that has always been the program's forte".
Computer Music Magazine recently gave the Launchpad a 10/10 rating.
With yet even more praise from Sound on Sound Magazine, it looks like it's going to be a long time before any Ableton Live controller receives as much attention and finds its way into as many music studios around the globe as the NovationLaunchpad.
