Live and Programmer Mode

Live Mode and Programmer Mode are the two states that Launchpad X can be used in.

In Live mode, Launchpad X will function as normal & you may access Session Mode, Note Mode and

Custom Mode.

In Programmer mode Launchpad X loses access to Session Mode, Note Mode and Custom Modes,

and the entire surface (pads and buttons) becomes unlit. Each pad and button will send out a

specified MIDI message when pressed.

The pads and buttons may be lit up by sending their corresponding MIDI messages to Launchpad X.

For more information see the Programmer Reference Guide, which can be downloaded at customer.

device availability, and device ID.
