Informal survey as to what people are using:

Do you already own a Novation Launchpad Mini/X/Pro or AKAI APC or other?

If you are thinking of buying one, which one are you most likely to buy?

Would it be possible to use a MIDI note on/off event to trigger clips? A lot of MIDI keyboards have a limited selection of buttons but often banks of pads that could be used as a clip launcher.
Waveform 13; Win10 desktop/8 Gig; Win11 Laptop; MPK261; VFX+disfunctional ESQ-1

not even sure how a clip launcher works, but I would only be using a regular midi keyboard with pads (nektar lx61+)

Yes, that will be possible through custom control surface mapping.

Maschine Jam. It's old but still an awesome clip launcher. Tracktion Waveform 13 is looking better than any DAW on the market - cannot wait for it to launch. Nothing better than some eye candy to get you in the groove. I can hopefully move on from Maschine Software now, if the Maschine Jam will be supported... Pretty please consider it...

That's all a Launchpad or whatever is actually doing anyway.

With Launchpad, there will be tighter integration with Waveform. Pads will light up to be the same colour as the clip they are controlling. They will blink when play/stop/record is queued etc. There is a mixer mode to control levels, pan, mute, solo, etc.

If you use the MIDI mapping then it will just be buttons launch clip.

That said, anybody can write a tighter controller integration if they know Javascript. I've been meaning to write a tutorial. Hopefully the community can help with this for some older out of production hardware.

Did we ever get anything like that for Macros?

No. No interest in clips, either.
