What is a MIDI controller used for?

A MIDI controller is used to send MIDI data like note info, velocity, and control changes to software instruments, DAWs, or hardware synths, letting you play virtual keys, trigger drums, tweak effects, and control your music production setup hands-on without built-in sounds.

Does anyone use MIDI anymore?

Absolutely, MIDI remains a cornerstone of modern music production. Pros and bedroom producers alike rely on it daily for DAWs like Ableton, Logic, and FL Studio, hardware synths, live performances, and even lighting rigs – it's more relevant than ever with wireless and USB advancements.

What is a good MIDI controller for beginners?

The Akai MPK Mini or Novation Launchkey Mini stand out for beginners – compact, affordable, with 25 keys or pads, velocity-sensitive action, and seamless plug-and-play with major DAWs. They pack essentials like knobs, faders, and transport controls without overwhelming new users.

What is the best MIDI pad controller?

The Akai MPC One or Native Instruments Maschine MK3 top the list for pad controllers, offering pressure-sensitive pads, standalone sequencing, sampling, and deep DAW integration. For pure control, the Launchpad Pro excels in Ableton Live beat-making and clip launching.

Eight faders

When it’s time to mix, Launch Control XL’s eight 60mm faders provide precise, responsive control over levels — with selectable fader pickup for avoiding sudden jumps. Custom Modes allow you to map faders to effects, filters, and more, giving you a hands-on way to shape your sound in the studio or on stage.

24 endless encoders

Launch Control XL’s smooth-feeling endless rotary encoders each feature adjustable response curves and a dedicated RGB LED to indicate its relative value. In DAW encoder mode encoders can pan tracks, adjust sends, help you navigate your DAW’s timeline, and more. Or create your own Custom Modes to control anything you want.

Dedicated transport controls

A dedicated transport section allows you to play, pause, and start or stop recording your DAW directly from Launch Control XL. In DAW Control mode, the bottom row of encoders gives you instant access to additional handy functions — like scrubbing the playhead, adjusting loop points, and navigating your arrangement.

MIDI I/O

With 5-pin MIDI In, Out, and Out2/Thru connections, you can route and merge MIDI to and from hardware synthesisers, effects, and control surfaces. Connecting multiple devices? Custom Modes let you split Launch Control, so you can adjust parameters on different gear at the same time.
