melodeast « Not too bad for the price »
Published on 12/18/13 at 00:14I use it for almost a year, I have not tried other models before.
Goodies:
robust: as explained mawou if a tractor rolls over, always try to connect after, it can work
launchpad at half price: dj mode is not bad at all. Remember to configure the beast midi in AND out, and you get a visual feedback of the clips in Ableton live reading (at least). For triggering clips live is quite frankly, with still some caveats: only two colors, red for the clips read and blue .... Everything else. 3 colors for me is a minimum, or at least when there are no clips in the box, no colors! But hey it's still good
functions performed: the drummer functions, effector and daw are not feasible. Drummer: given the sensitivity of the pads, as do rhythms mouse ..... Effector: I do not know how you control with, especially if it is to achieve automation, but good luck. But parcontre reflecting a little, There are way to recycle the unusable function, including volume control effects returns (as I have read)
Retraining in question could have been more relevant if the "imap" MIDI editing software offered more opportunities because ultimately, only assignments drummer mode can be adjusted .... Damage
So mawou same as if it cost 90 euros, I would have sent him to China to acquire a launchpad. And if I had to do ... I do not know.
I often say that snapped her in a control surface that is a shame. Better worth to buy good hardware with our modest savings. But in fact, the purpose of a control surface is to allow comfort while working. So good .... Left to be comfortable as being completely or not at all!
