The LED brightness level slider has 8 levels, from minimum to maximum brightness. The brightly lit
white pad indicates which level is currently selected.
Bootloader Version will inform which version of the Bootloader is on Launchpad X.
Application Version will inform which version of the Application is on Launchpad X.
Pressing the Boot-up button will start Launchpad X normally, exiting the bootloader menu.
MSD Mode toggles the mass storage device behaviour of Launchpad X on or off. MSD Mode is
enabled by default. This is why Launchpad X appears as a mass storage device when plugged in
to your computer. Inside the LAUNCHPAD X folder is a link to our Easy Start Tool, which will help
to get you set up with your Launchpad X (see Getting up and Running). Once you’re set up with
Launchpad X 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 X units with Ableton Live at once. When different ID
is selected on each Launchpad X, they will each have their own Session Ring (grid outline), and thus
can navigate the Live session independently.
