The controller had “RGB pads” which light up the same colour as the clips in Ableton Live making it a whole lot easier to recognise what is playing at a glance. Novation call it the “easiest way to take full control of Ableton” and it’s difficult to argue when you consider some of its features.

Here’s a rundown of our favourite controllers and their best features, with videos all less than 5 minutes long, that show you exactly how they work… Novation Launchpad Pro Pad Controller These pieces of kit have been specifically designed to enable you to be closer to your music, so rather than struggling through Ableton with your laptop mousepad a click at a time, controllers offer you a full surface of options for you to launch multiple loops, scenes and sounds at once – giving you greater access and control of your favourite software or DAW. Whether you are a finger drummer or not, controllers are an excellent piece of hardware for producers of all levels. What do all the buttons actually do? Am I going to be able to play it? Am I actually going to use it? At first glance, we get it, but whether you are producing at home, or looking for a product you’ll use to perform, these controllers are actually a lot simpler and easier to use than they initially seem.

For the bedroom music maker, grid-based controllers can look a little daunting.
