I played on the controller all day and did not miss a cue.

This took a couple of hours but has worked. I don't need to filter the control buttons. I then set about cutting out 64 round "filters" to stick on the underside of the trigger pads. Taking the launchpad to my workbench I pulled it apart (easy done) and removed the rubber membrane. This was short lived as the contact caused buttons to stick down etc so I was forced to think again. it looked like shit but did do the trick. I put a nice layer down over the buttons and. It was easy to see the differences in colors at the slight trade off of making the pads slightly duller (but still very easy to see). I tested a filter over the buttons using a couple of layers of red transparent contact (used for covering childrens books) and it made a big difference. When I look at the launchpad through a RED filter I can instantly see the difference in colors. I am into Photography as well and I just happen to have some color filter lenses. This would be greatīeing impatient I have managed to create a "stop-gap" solution until someone can help me out on this. My theory is that the remote script files (that can't be decompiled easily/at all) should be able to control the color/intensity of these files and should be able to be modified to just dim the leds in clip view a bit more. I have contacted Novation who say they are aware of the issue and are looking into it (we will see). For those that don't suffer this it's hard to imagine but I am sure I am not the only one since this is a common form of color blindness. butb in clip view the leds are so bright that I cannot register the Green from the Amber pads. The thing is though, if you go to the mixer page the intensity of the green/amber LEDs is different and I can easily see the difference. In CLIP view, the entire grid appears the EXACT same color for loaded and playing clips. The cheap use of green/red dual LEDs to produce the colours is a BIG issue for people like me. I am color blind with certain shades of RED.

Not in a hardware sense, but in a worse sense. I pressed play on my AlphaTrack, triggered a couple of clips to start things off and. After everything was installed and I updated Ableton to get the Launchpad control surface remote file I loaded up, configured and saw the pads light up to life. It arrived at my work on the Friday and I was very excited to get home and start playing. So I decided on the Launchpad which I found 2nd hand for a bargain thanks to eBay.

My desk is already full of control surfaces (with an MPD on the way) and the APC looked too big for me (and the 9 faders without motorized control was a bit lame after using the BCF and AT). After experimenting with pads on my nanoPad to trigger clips I decided to look into APC/Launchpad areas for some fun control.

This software just felt very fluent to an old tracker based musician such as myself and I just had to get more in to the thing.

Using Bomes MIDI Translator Pro I also had copy, paste and duplicate functions creating cuts and samples etc on the fly. Within a few hours I had all these devices playing nicely in Ableton, controlling all the channel volumes, drums and effects.

I have the KORG nano series controllers, Alphatrack, BCF2000 and an Evolution MK-461C keyboard. These days I use Cubase 5 for my main recording, Buzz tracker for hammering out sequences and effects but recently I stumbled on Ableton for a bit of a test run.

I have slowly been building up my hardware over this time and I now have a great "play room". I have been in the music making / mixing game for over 10 years (since Fasttracker II \ Cubic Player days.
