MSD Mode toggles the mass storage device behaviour of Launchpad Mini on or off. MSD Mode is
enabled by default. This is why Launchpad Mini appears as a mass storage device when plugged in
to your computer. Inside the LAUNCHPAD folder is a link to our Easy Start Tool, which will help to
get you set up with your Launchpad Mini (see Getting Up and Running). Once you’re set up with
Launchpad Mini you may no longer want it to appear as a mass storage device. Use this toggle to
disable the behaviour completely. When the pad is brightly lit MSD mode is enabled, and it is dimly lit
when disabled.
Device ID allows you to use multiple Launchpad Minis with Ableton Live at once. When different ID
is selected on each Launchpad Mini, they will each have their own Session Ring (grid outline) and
can navigate the Live session independently. On Windows, the latest Novation USB driver should be
installed to correctly utilise this functionality.
