Compact and Portable Grid Controller for Live Performance

The Novation Launchpad Mini [MK3] is a slim, lightweight MIDI controller designed for hands-on clip launching in Ableton Live and Logic Pro. With its 64 RGB backlit pads arranged in an 8x8 matrix, the Launchpad Mini gives users tactile control over their session view, enabling real-time triggering of clips, scenes, and loops—all in a format that’s easy to carry and quick to set up. Whether you're new to electronic music production or a seasoned performer needing a compact live tool, this controller is purpose-built for fast-paced creativity.

Seamless Integration with Ableton Live and Logic Pro

This grid controller is optimized for seamless plug-and-play functionality with Ableton Live Lite (included), allowing instant access to clip launching, transport controls, and mixer adjustments. It's also Logic Pro-ready, enabling real-time triggering of Live Loops and arrangement cells. With visual feedback provided by the vibrant RGB pads, it's easy to keep track of your session layout and see which clips are playing, queued, or stopped.

Custom MIDI Control for Studio and Stage Flexibility

Three Custom Modes expand the Launchpad Mini’s capabilities far beyond basic clip triggering. Using Novation’s Components app, users can create and load personalized MIDI mappings to control external software, hardware, or effects. Whether you're controlling virtual instruments, FX plugins, or lighting rigs, the Launchpad Mini adapts to your setup without added complexity.

User-Friendly Setup with Interactive Tutorials and Software Bundle

Getting started is fast and easy. The Launchpad Mini comes bundled with Ableton Live Lite, access to Novation’s sound packs, and the Components editor. Step-by-step online tutorials guide you through setup, helping you start creating within minutes. It’s ideal for musicians building their first performance rig or producers looking to expand their creative workflow.

Ideal for Travel, Home Studios, and Performance Setups

At just under a pound, the Launchpad Mini is small enough to fit in your backpack and rugged enough for road use. Its bus-powered design means there’s no need for external power supplies—just plug into your laptop via USB-C and you’re ready to play. From DJ booths to bedroom studios, it’s a practical addition for any music maker working with MIDI or live performance software.

Take Command of Your Music Production Workflow

The Launchpad Mini [MK3] empowers you to control tracks, samples, and loops in a way that’s far more tactile than using a mouse.
