LaunchControl X by Sigabort
It was only a matter of time before we turned our attention to the pocket perfection of a controller! The Novation LaunchControl is effectively the smaller sibling of the LaunchControl XL that we first added the Sigabort magic to some years ago. The result is our upgraded LaunchControl X Control Surface Script..
ON SCREEN RING FOCUS BOX – SESSION CONTROL – The ability to have the LaunchControl as a supplementary controller for an Ableton Push or Novation LaunchPad was too much to ignore. Additionally LaunchSync will allow you to sync the new on screen Ring Focus Box of the LaunchControl X script with a wide range of supported controllers – MORE DETAILS
16 ENCODERS – 16 PARAMETER CONTROL – LaunchControl X has an upgraded USER SIX mapping which now gives you comprehensive control over Devices, VST’s and MaxforLive devices in banks of 16 parameters at a time. We’ve also added the ability to use PrEditor to create unique mappings to suit your own preferences.
ADDITIONAL CONFIGURATION OPTIONS – Within the Launch_Control_X remote script folder is a config.txt file, you can edit this with the details below to give different behaviours to your controller. Remember that changes will not take place until you have saved the file and restarted Live.
Returns MODE – The return tracks are right justified meaning that they will always appear on the right hand side of the controller. Two modes are provided which allow you to alter the behaviour of the display of the return tracks. This can be controlled by the Returns_mode setting in config.txt.
MAX NUMBER OF RETURNS – The Max_returns config setting can be used to limit the number of return tracks that can be controlled
Track BANK – You can configure how many tracks are moved left and right with the BANK LEFT / RIGHT buttons by changing the Track_bank value in config.txt.
SHOW MASTER – With this set to 1 the 8th track on the controller will always be dedicated to control the Master Track in Live regardless of the location of the Ring Focus Box
AUTO SCAN MULTI – The fully PrEditor compatible script has this option will define how Multi-Map VST’s behave when selected for editing are automatically scanned for parameter layout or whether the user does it via the PrEditor UI.
Frequently Asked Questions
LaunchControl X is specifically designed for the Novation LaunchControl, the compact sibling of the LaunchControl XL. If you own the XL model, Sigabort also offer a separate script tailored to that controller.
The on-screen Session Ring Focus Box gives you a visual indicator of which section of your Live session the LaunchControl is currently controlling, making it much easier to navigate and stay orientated during a performance or production session.
Yes, that is one of its key strengths. LaunchControl X is designed to work as a supplementary controller alongside Push or Launchpad, and the LaunchSync feature allows you to sync the Ring Focus Box across a wide range of supported controllers for a seamless setup.
The script includes an upgraded USER SIX mapping that gives you hands-on control over 16 parameters of any device in your Live set via the LaunchControl’s encoders, going well beyond what the stock Novation mapping offers.
You receive the Control Surface Script files, which are installed into Ableton Live’s MIDI Remote Scripts folder. Full installation instructions are provided with the download, and the process is straightforward for both Mac and Windows users.
Absolutely. The combination of Session Control, Return Control, and the on-screen Focus Box makes LaunchControl X a capable tool for both live performance and in-studio workflow, particularly when used as part of a wider controller setup.
