Important Notes

These config files were specifically made for the Novation Launchpad MK2!

If you have another Launchpad model or MIDI controller of a similar form, feel free to try it. However, you will probably need to edit the macro buttons to make the lights match their correct location, and for the layout to generally make sense. I cannot make configs for other devices as I do not own any besides my MK2.

Limitations:

• When using the User Switch Button (Mixer), it will annoyingly put the MacroButtons window front and centre. So not really ideal for anyone using a full screen application or playing a game. My best solution to this is to create a script that will minimize MacroButtons when switching "pages". I have included this script as "min.pyw" and "min.exe" (a complied version of "min.pyw"). If you want to use the EXE then just drop it in the folder with the configs and it will work. If you want to use the Python version you will need to edit the button in all 3 MacroButton configs to change the file extension to ".pyw"

Why are lots sliders either -12dB or +12dB?

• In Macros, there is no way to limit the gain of a slider. For example, when holding a Vol+ button, I can't just make an IF statement to stop it going over 0dB. So in yet another compromise, most sliders are set at -12dB so the full range of sliders can be used without the audio clipping. The end result is the same however, and no volume is lost. But yes, it looks stupid.
