Hi everybody!
I am a poor motherf**ker getting into music producing. Besides ableton, i have following equipment:
AKAI APC 25
KORG Nano Key.. for bus rides and traveling
as well as an USB Interface, to record Guitar and Microphones.
It's my birthday soon! My main present will be money, which i will be spending on traveling around the world and LSD.
So, i just look for a "small" present, something around 100 USD.
I saw following Video, and i was amazed!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyT7f1H0JqA
I think it's the Ableton Novation Launchpad MK II, 160 EUR, so about 190 USD (so, out of my budget)
But then i saw the Ableton Novation Launchpad MINI! (80 EUR, 90 USD)
It seems like a perfect tool for making JAMS, and for having fun, even if you are wasted from a couple of nice and cold bottles of beer.
I was thinking of maybe getting the Ableton Novation Launchpad Mini (around 90 USD):
It seems like a perfect addition to my low budget equipment.
Adding spice to music production
Having a lot of useful functions
Being able to make JAMS
Good for a poor budget
A good addition to my equipment
As my birthday is pretty soon,
i have read some reviews, the most of them very positive!
Would you agree on this idea, or do you have another hint for a good music production tool for a beginner on a low budget?
Thanks in advance and enjoy your evening

I have one of the older launchpads. It's great imo, I use it with Numerology and it's an inspiring tool to jam with.

I would avoid the drugs. Better things to spend money on, especially considering your statement of being poor.

Launchpad running one of the Push scripts (launchpad95) would be cool. I used one before getting Push.

Ah, i think i know what you are talking about, like running a launchpad, but instead using the scripts (midi etc.) for the launchpad, to get the scripts for the push.thecontrolcentre wrote:But he's Captain Lysergicacid ...Jace-BeOS wrote:I would avoid the drugs.

Where can I find push scripts?
I've done my research and came to the conclusion that the Launchpad Mini and Launchpad Pro are basically the same, just that the Launchpad Pro is bigger on the one hand, and has less colours of the lights.tapper mike wrote:I'd say get a launchpad pro used.

Also, i don't want to bother my parents with ebay, they have no clue. But thanks for the advice anyways!
So, i finally decided for the Launchpad Mini, got it for 79 EUR on Amazon. I am excited already!
Thanks a lot everybody!

The script is here:

Great for step sequencing your beats. I would expect an update for 10 before long. They added melodic step sequencing for Push2.
