Watch: Master Ableton Live macro mapping with Launch Control
In this video, Dylan shows us how to add life to sequences, sounds, and entire Live sets with the help of Launch Control.
Accessible, affordable software-based workflows have revolutionised electronic music making. Where we once had temperamental analogue hardware to contend with, we now have pixel-perfect digital recreations — or entirely new virtual devices — that pair greatly improved practicality with near-endless creative possibilities.
But, in trading our knobs and buttons for mice and keyboards, have we lost something along the way?
In this video, Dylan shows us how to inject some much-needed tactility and spontaneity back into to the creative process with Launch Control. Watch to see how he maps the knobs to various macro racks in Ableton Live and demonstrates a more intuitive and immediate way to work with individual devices, multiple devices on a single track, or even your entire Live Set.
