Works great. Ableton Live Lite software really great to start off on. Video lessons included to set you going.
Really pleased with purchase.
Tre anni fa ho acquistato questo prodotto ed lo uso tutt’oggi, ovviamente servono musiche apposite mk2(MKII). Qualit prezzo ottimo, la novation sta volta ha fatto un prodotto ben fatto!
Trs bien mais c’est les logiciels qui coutent le plus cher. Vous verrez vite que le la version gratuite du logiciel vous limite dans vos crations.
An essential companion device for my Novation MiniNova Analog Modeling Synthesizer.
Prodotto validissimoma difficile da usare,per un bambino di 9anni
Prodotto molto divertente, non proprio facile da usare.
Seguite i tutorial online, differentemente non riuscirete a suonare.
Una volta capito come usarlo, ce solo da imparare e divertirsi.
If you wanna produce music and turn into Martin Garrix, First get handy with a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW ,like Ableton) , Then proceed to buy.
Pour rsumer: c’est un superbe appareil pour tout ceux qui veulent se mettre la MAO. Attention toutes fois car, comme n’importe quel instrument de musique, vous n’allez pas le matriser en quelques minutes, et ce n’est pas non plus un jouet (regardez quoi ressemble Ableton et tout ce qu’il faut faire pour crer un project file, et vous comprendrez).
WARNING: This is not a toy for a child. If you are thinking of buying this for your 8 year old son, Don’t, you will just frustrate him. You need a good understanding of DAWs and Music production to use
This has helped my workflow so much. Ever since getting it and integrating it into my daily work, I have found myself to be more creative and efficient. Strongly recommend
I wish I had more time to use it. It’s a blast for beat-making.
I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend and he is absolutely obsessed with it now
Great product it was a present for my son who loves it..
The only problem is the code you get with it to use with the software says the codes been used before. im having problems getting another code to use it.
superbe launchpad…. compatible avec ableton.. il faut un sacr temps d adaptation et des connaissance du logiciel….mais aprs… pouahhh quelle machine du tonnerre !!!
I am really enjoying what I am able to do with this little machine. It is really user friendly, and an actual plug and play.
egalato a mio figlio che lo ha messo subito a dura prova! da lui considerato un ottimo prodotto. Ne soddisfatto pienamente.
Questo controller non ha bisogno di presentazioni. Facile da usare, intuitivo e con un feel pazzesco.
Sin duda, este articulo atrapa a los usuarios y desarrolla capacidades increibles de memoria y gusto por la musica, esta genial.
Como regalo para un milenial y generaciones posteriores es el articulo perfecto.
If your a beginner, I recomend Watching InspirAspir’s video’s. They really helped me get started.
Incluye una versin lite de Ableton para conocer este software si aun no lo tienen.
Tiene modo de “juego” para aprender a usarlo y puedes pasar horas usandolo.
Gran herramienta para ayudar a reproducir ideas musicales.
I found this is really good addition to my live performance setup.
der Einstieg mit dem Novation Launchpad gar kein Problem fr mich.
Fr Anfnger drfte aber vorallem Ableton selbst eine kleine Herausforderung
darstellen.
Das Launchpad selbst kann extrem vielseitig eingesetzt werden und funktioniert
bei mir bisher einwandfrei, bei einem Kumpe ist allerdings das MIDI-Mapping
fehlerhaft weshalb er es gar nichtmehr benutzen kann.
Aber alles in allem bin ich echt zufrieden mit dem Teil und kann es nur weiterempfehle
Its great! But there is a problem with the cable how can i buy it? Is it the pronter cable or there is a cable for launchpad?
Fixed my issue with my non working code. Still a bit of a hassle but it’s ok now
Scherzi a parte, una volta che impari ad usare ableton o settare i progetti fatti da altri utenti diventa molto divertente… solo che ci si mette un po’ a imparare
When it reached home i become 200% happy
Tottally worth buying
And im fully satisfied
_Great product and packaging was also great
Love i
Consegna nei tempi stabiliti, il launchpad funziona benissimo, acquistandolo compresa la versione di Ableton live, per i pi esperti invece, attraverso il launchpad potranno avere uno sconto di 60 su la versione completa di Ableton.
Es macht sehr Spa mit dem Teil zu spielen, lohnt sich aufjedenfall wenn man die Zeit dafr hat..
ben bringt auch sehr viel..
Sehr empfehlenswert.
Le launchpad mk2 est la hauteur de mes attentes, cela me permet de remplacer l’application “unipad” sur mon tlphone qui commencer tre limite.
Les couleurs sont trs satisfaisante ce qui rend ce produit trs agrable utiliser.
Merci.
WORKS SO WELL, AMAZON IS THE BEST ONLINE SHOPPING METHOD
This is a great product, but may be a little hard to use if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Bought for my son for Xmas and he loves it . Great gift great produc
Ich habe es als Weihnachtsgeschenk gekauft und es hat super Spa gemacht! Gute Qualitt und die Lichter sind einfach cool
Spedizione nei tempi prestabiliti,ottimo rapporto qualit prezzo un ottimo prodotto per giocare e lavorare con la musica lo consiglio a chi interessato
Je m’en suis fait un avis plutt bon sur le produit
Le produit rpond a mes appelle en tant que instrument.
Mais, il y a un mais. Je trouve que le prix est plutt lever.
Je vous conseille d’en avoir vraiment l’utilit avant le prendre !
mein Sohn “spiel” und programmiert viel damit, auch wenn mir der eigentlic he Sinn und Zweck des Gertes weiterhin nicht ersichtlich ist. Aber es macht offensichtlich viel Freude und beschftigt.
nuovo imballato bene quindi tutto ok
provato e non e’ facile avviarlo,mio figlio di 13 anni mi ha sorpreso e’ riuscito da solo a fare tutto!!!
lo consiglio ,ma ci vuole veramente tanta pazienza
Tout est fourni (guide d’installation/code d’activation) et notamment le logiciel ABLETON LIVE 9 LITE avec votre licence personnelle.
Il ne reste plus qu’ crer… !
Je recommande sans problme.
Great product. Lights come up but no sound. Have attached it to laptop and registered product etc but NO SOUND. Please help!!
molto bello ma difficile da settare
oppure ad esempio quando bisogna convertire dei file project.
una volta capito come funziona e molto divertente
Un bon produit mais il faut vraiment chercher pour comprendre son fonctionnement.
Impossible de faire un jeu de lumires sur la mme session (User) que les squences sons… dommage
Il prodotto orticaria in ottime condiZioni, funziona, ma il programma ableton non carica i progetti, si blocca e sono costretto a fare la chiusura forzata del programma. Qualcuno mi aiuta?
Trotzdem verwende ich es gerne, aber ein Fortschritt ist absehbar und sicher wird deshalb dieses “Gert” nicht mehr meinen Ansprchen gerecht werden.
Stabile Bauweise, gnstiger Preis und die Mglichkeit Funktionen von guter Software nher kennenzulernen gerechtfertigen einen Kauf ebenso wie der faire Preis.
Too complicated for my 7 yr. old but his dad loves it 🙂 LOL
We are keeping it until he is old enough to figure it out.
Great for music-makers 🙂
The software is very finicky. If you don’t have it set up exactly right (which you have to manually set yourself, it doesn’t do any sort of auto detect which kind of stinks), this controller may as well be a paperweight. So that honestly took me about an hour, but once I get it set up I was able to get to work and this became exactly what I was looking fo
I led sono davvero brillanti, colori niente male. Considerato questo, ritengo che il prezzo sia adeguato.
Spedizione e supporto Amazon ineccepibile come sempre.
I tasti bianchi e gommosi mi danno la sensazione di annersi i breve tempo anche se dopo un periodo di uso intensivo sono ancora intatti. Ho provveduto a comprare degli stiker quadrati neri per personalizzare ed evitare l’usura dei tasti. Riguardo amazon: avuto un problema per l’elaborazione del pagamento e ho ricevuto una risposta in pochissimo tempo, completa ed esaustiva. Mi complimento ancora. Lieto di poter scrivere queste recensioni.
Complimenti prodotto ottimo funzionante ma nell’impostarlo ci vuole molta pazienza e per suonarlo ci vuole molta capacit perch un po’ difficile
Il launchpad launchpad mk2 midi l’oggetto del desiderio di mio figlio per i suoi 13 anni, lo ha visto sui vari video online e spera di poter realizzare le sue prime demo in modo facile ed intuitivo. Probabilente dovr acquistare in seguito le casse , per avere un apparecchio completo, ma per adesso va bene cos.
bought this for my 15 year old son for christmas. He really likes it, only wishes that the abbleton live wasn’t so limiting, and the other versions weren’t so expensive.
Bought this for my son and he won’t get off it but he does play good music
Could have had better instructions for a novice like me but once setup awesome
Piece of kit. C
Prodotto ottimo Una volta imparato ad usare divertente bisogna perderci un po di tempo per capire come funziona il programma un p complesso.
Molto bello per chi vuole iniziare a suonare questo tipo di strumento.
L’unico peccato che per utilizzarlo al meglio c’ bisogno di un computer potente.
Non un giocattolo, lo consiglio a chi realmente intenzionato
Good device, but very complicated to set up, youtube is your friend
I bought it for my son and he loves it! Don’t have any problems with it and I got it on time.
My son is having a blast with the launch pad. He is programming songs quickly.
ottimo strumento project file da trovare su internet problemi con il jack dingresso bisogna tenereo leggermente verso fuori
non e un giocattolo
All’interno dell’imballaggio c’era la scatola originale del prodotto completa di: Launchpad MK2, Cavo USB per il collegamento al PC, Libretto di istruzioni con tutte le informazioni riguardante il prodotto ed il setup iniziale e la key per Ableton Live Lite gratuita.
Il prodotto risponde perfettamente alle mie aspettative, presenta colori molto accesi e tasti non troppo duri da premere.
Ha superato la prova del tempo continuando a funzionare anche dopo molte sessioni di uso intensivo.
Che dire un prodotto sicuramente di ottima fattura che chi appassionato di Launchpad non pu non avere. stato uno dei migliori acquisti che abbia mai fatto.
I went out on a limb and purchased this for a friend who has been getting into production using Ableton. It certainly takes some getting used to, but it’s ability to splice and sample tracks to the 64 buttons makes jamming easier and a lot more awesome. the RGB lighting matches up perfectly to everything you see on the screen on Ableton, and Ableton makes it easy for you to record the tracks you create by jamming on the launchpad. This is a relatively inexpensive upgrade that gives a considerable amount of utility.
Vista la soddisfazione che mio figlio ha nell’aver ricevuto il suo regalo ,posso dire che il prodotto funziona bene.Buono il servizio .
Molto bello, divertente e facile da usare!
Imballato in modo impeccabile, peccato solo che il filo arrivato rotto ma a pochi lo preso nuovo!
Toute les infos concernant l’installation du Launchpad et du logiciel Ableton sont donnes. Aprs a, j’ai pass un paquet de temps me renseigner avec des tutos sur internet, et j’ai pu commencer faire mumuse avec mon nouveau jouet :)).
Un plaisir. Autant pour la compo que pour jouer des morceaux existant.
Malgr tout, il faut bien avoir conscience que ce genre de matriel ne s’adresse pas forcement n’importe quel dbutant… a peut frustrer certains de ne pas arriver faire sortir un son de la machine ! Mais n’importe quel dtermin y parviendra ;).
Renseignez-vous bien avant achat, il faut savoir quoi s’attendre.
Jed’
This thing is just awesome. The only reason I give it a 4/5 stars is because it comes with a life version of the software which is still great but you cannot do custom lighting effects without the full version. I feel like 150$ should be plenty enough to pay for both the launchpad and the software but they really make you bend over backwards for the full version of Ableton Live 9 Suite. THAT SOFTWARE IS EXPENSIVE for what it IS.
It was something that was so new to me! I was skeptical if it it would be beneficial to my son who ordered it after getting to know about this instrument on YouTube. The ordering on Amazon was easy and the shipment came as what was advised. Fast and hassle free. I am glad that we bought it as the music produced by the instrument is amazing and captivating! We just love it. It can be played by anyone even without proper training! I would recommend parents who want to get their children away from their hand phones and iPads/computers or games!
Das Pad ist definitiv nichts fr zwischendurch (zumindest nicht als Anfnger) fr mich aber kein Nachteil.
Bereue den Kauf nicht & empfehle jedem der interesse hat sich das Novaton Launchpad mk2 zu kaufen.
Die Software “Ableton” habe ich bis jetzt nicht genutzt und kann daher nichts drber berichten.
Don’t get this if you use FL studio it is not very intuitive to use on fl studio. If you use Ableton it will work well, though.
Il prodotto e ottimo nella scatola di spedizione era ben protetto con moli fogli da imballaggio accartocciati e messi intorno a la scatola originale. Funziona benissimo nel libretto che danno c’ il codice per la trial di ableton 9 funzionante anche con fl studio, funziona con tutti i profeti per mk2, colori brilkanti , pad sensibili e morbiti , abbastanza leggera ma a lo stesso tempo rigida.
Il prodotto e buonissimo ve lo consiglio. salvatore mottola.
Seul problme, il demande beaucoup de ressources (Albeton Live 9) pour l’utiliser. Et ayant un PC peu performant j’avait normment de soucis de fluidit.
Mais avec un bon PC c’est parfai
I really enjoying playing with the Launchpad. It is really fun. There are a lot of things you can do with it and
I recommend it for any music enthusiasts.
Now, if only my timing was better 😛
Will note however, aside from the product, the delivery was a slight issue. Ordered with Peter Tyson, I was shipped the incorrect model (Novation Launchpad Mini), a ~50 cheaper model for what I originally paid for. If you’re buying anything online that’s getting delivered, always remember to check the parcel, I’m glad I did. DPD gave a quick swap next day for the correct model and everything was good.
