Launch Control XL

The Novation Launch Control XL is a versatile and powerful MIDI control surface designed to provide in-depth, hands-on control over your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) and virtual instruments, with a particular focus on seamless integration with Ableton Live. It offers a comprehensive layout of physical controls that allows producers and performers to step away from the mouse and keyboard, fostering a more immediate and tactile workflow. With its array of faders, knobs, and buttons, the Launch Control XL gives you direct manipulation of your mixer, effects, and instrument parameters, helping you to focus more on creativity and less on navigating software menus. Whether you are mixing tracks, tweaking synth parameters, or controlling effects during a live performance, the controller is built to streamline your process.

Designed to be the ultimate companion to the Novation Launchpad, the Launch Control XL expands your control capabilities exponentially. It features eight rugged 60mm faders for precise level adjustments, 24 rotary knobs with multi-color LEDs arranged in three rows that align perfectly with Ableton Live's mixer layout, and 16 multi-color buttons for track focus, mixer controls, and clip launching. This extensive control set is not limited to just one DAW; thanks to its HUI integration, the Launch Control XL can also be used to control other major DAWs like Logic Pro, Cubase, and FL Studio right out of the box. Its class-compliant, bus-powered design makes it highly portable and easy to integrate into any studio or live setup, connecting directly to a Mac, PC, or iOS device without the need for drivers.
