Launchpad App Now Audiobus Compatible

[yizzle]

Novation has announced an update to their Launchpad App for iOS.

Launchpad lets you make, record and share music on the iPad by triggering and mixing sounds on a grid. The updated version, v.1.5 lets you output those songs directly into any Audiobus-compatible application.

This opens the door to doing things like:

• Adding to your songs using GarageBand

• Applying external effects during live performance

• Outputting beats straight to Cubasis

Here’s what’s new in Launchpad 1.5:

• Output to Audiobus

• Improved stutter FX

• Bug fixes and performance improvements

Features:

• 8×6 Launchpad grid for launching up to 8 loops and sounds at a time

• Eight volume sliders and eight filter sliders

• FX section for adding repeat and synced filter effects

• Free professional loop and sample library from Loopmasters

• Record and share your performances

• Regular In-App Purchase Launchpack libraries

• Import your own sounds via Dropbox or AudioCopy (In-App Purchase)

• Export your sounds via Soundcloud, Dropbox, Audiocopy, email or Audiobus.

• Load new complete sessions and sounds

• Global tempo change

• Edit mode for loading samples

• Autosave — never lose your sessions

• Control the Launchpad App with Novation hardware. Connect any Launch product — Novation Launchpad Mini, Launchkey Mini, Launchpad S, Launch Control, or Launchkey 25, 49, or 61 note keyboard — to your iPad using the camera connection kit. Launch sounds and FX with real back-lit pads and control volume and filters with sliders and knobs.

Novation Launchpad is a free download from the App Store. Additional sound libraries are available via In App purchases.
