Novation Launchpad X User Manual

Lighting Pads (Advanced)
By default, Custom 3 and 4 have all pads unlit. MIDI Note messages sent to Launchpad X will light pads
according to note number and velocity. The note sent will determine which pad lights up, and the note’s
velocity will determine the colour. This is useful for creating light displays using 64 RGB pads.
The RGB LEDs are capable of outputting 127 colours, the index of which can be found in the Programmer’s
Reference Guide.
Additionally, all pads and buttons can be lit in Programmer Mode.
For detailed information on lighting pads and using Launchpad X as a control surface for soware, see the
Programmer's Reference Guide, which can be downloaded at downloads.novationmusic.com.
Ghost mode is a special sub-mode of custom views. When triggered, this turns o any function button LEDs
around the edge of Launchpad X during the use of a custom mode. To enter Ghost mode, press Note and
Custom in quick succession. Following this action, only the 8×8 grid will be lit. To re-enable the button LEDs,
press any button outside the 8×8 grid.
