THE SESSION MODE

When Launchpad is chosen as an active control

surface, a ring appears on the session view to indicate

which section is currently controlled by the pad matrix.

Pressing a clip launch pad triggers the clip in the

corresponding clip slot in Live. Hitting an empty clip slot

in a track that is not armed will stop the clip playing in

this track. If the track is armed to record, pressing the

button records a new clip.

The directional arrows and the session button increase

the scope of the eight-by-eight grid by navigating the

session view in scenes and tracks. You can also ﬁre

horizontal lines of clips (scenes) with the buttons on the

right hand side of Launchpad S.

The buttons in the matrix light up in different colours so you know what’s going on:

AMBER: this slot contains a clip GREEN: this clip is playing RED: this clip is recording

SESSION OVERVIEW

The Launchpad’s session overview lets you navigate through large Live sets quickly without looking at

your computer screen. Hold down the “session” button and the matrix zooms out to reveal an overview of

Red frame indicates

currently controlled section

your session view. In the session overview, each pad represents an eight-by-eight block of clips, giving

you a matrix of 64 scenes by 64 tracks. In the session overview, the colour coding is a little different:

AMBER: Indicates the currently selected block of clips,

which will be surrounded by the ring in the software.

GREEN: There are clips playing in that block of clips

(though that may not be the block of clips selected).

RED: There are no clips playing in that range.

NO COLOUR: There are no tracks or scenes in that range.

made), or to freely assign the Launchpad S buttons to any MIDI assignable parameter in Live.
