The Launchpad Thread

[XORadmin]

My Launchpad (Mini MK3) shows the weirdest behaviour. I can only make it work if i set it to programmers mode by pro-mk3 host*, Mini-host does not work at all
When i switch to sequencer screen the launchpad shows me my patterns just as i see them on the NerdSEQ Screen. i can also mute/unmute and scroll up and down and also start patterns. But after i started the sequencer the playhead/clockposition is moving horizontally from left to right, i can not stop patterns or the sequencer, i can not open a pattern from sequencer screen
If i open a pattern a pattern the "classical" way, the launchpad follows and shows me the pattern screen, playhead is still running horizontally from left to right and i can set triggers (E1) in horizontal order so the buttons in the first row are from left to right the steps 0-7 in pattern screen from top to bottom.

Anyone else facing that problem with his/her Launchpad (Mini, mk3)?

This one need to be set up to MK3 (either with or without * that depends on your needs). Mini host is for the old 2 colour one and not suitable for the MK3 versions.

For the rest it doesn't sound like an issue but as it works. Left to right is correct. You use the buttons on the right combined with the grid to select patterns, start/stop, go to the pattern screen.
Pressing the buttons on the grid only will launch the pattern.

Check the launchpad part in the manual (for sure the preliminary manual for V2.0 since it covers also the difference of the different launchpad types) to see what it can do and how it works.
