The Creative Control Surface

Get hands on with your DAW, plugins, and hardware from a portable-yet-powerful controller with 16 endless rotary encoders; eight assignable buttons; and a crisp OLED display for essential info. Mix and sculpt sounds right out the box, and create up to seven Custom Modes to fit your specific workflow in the studio or on stage.

Control any setup

Go deep with a single device or take high-level control over your production, mixdown, or performance. Launch Control is ideal for working in the box, with hardware, or across a mixture of the two.

1. Powerful DAW integration

Get deep integration with Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, and Bitwig plus Mackie HUI support for everything else.

2. Connect all your hardware

MIDI In, Out, and Out2/Thru ports enable custom-mapped control for all your hardware synths and effects — no computer needed.

3. Bring everything together

Combine your external gear, DAW controls, and essential plugin parameters into one intuitive custom layout for the ultimate hybrid setup.

Your creative companion

Dial in effects, balance your mix, tweak your hardware synths, and more. By combining essential controls for your entire workflow in one intuitive layout, Launch Control keeps you in the flow — in the studio, on stage, or on the move.

16 endless encoders

Launch Control’s smooth-feeling endless rotary encoders each feature a dedicated RGB LED that indicates its relative value. Pan tracks, adjust sends, or do anything else you want via Custom Modes — all with adjustable response curves.
