The Missing Controller in Most Studios - The Novation Launch Control 3

video upload by Sanjay C

"In this video, I take a closer look at the Novation Launch Control 3, a compact MIDI controller designed to give you hands-on control over your DAW, plugins, and mixes. With 16 endless encoders, an OLED display, and RGB LED feedback, it promises a more tactile workflow than using a mouse. I’ll walk through five ways this controller can improve your music production workflow, show how it works with popular DAWs like Ableton Live, and highlight a small detail that makes it surprisingly useful in real-world setups. I’ll also compare it to the Launch Control XL MK3 and talk about whether the smaller version is really the best value for your money."

Dreamy Melodic Trance | Novation Peak + Minilogue XD + Micromonsta 2 + Blofeld | Dawless Live Jam 18

video upload by STEHRÆON

"Live jam performed on my full hardware setup.

That was the first time I used five synth layers. Micromonsta 2 worked in bi-timbral Combi mode with two stacked layers because of limited sequencing resource of the Cirtcuit Tracks (only 4 MIDI tracks)-
Rig: Novation Peak, Korg Minilogue XD, MicroMonsta2 (bi-trimbral stacked), Waldorf Blofeld, Roland TR-6S, Novation Circuit Tracks (sequencing only), recorded raw to Tascam Model 12.

All performed live, no DAW, no edits."
