This document provides all the information you need to be able to control the Launch Control XL 3.
The Launch Control XL 3 communicates using MIDI over USB and DIN. This document describes the MIDI implementation for the device, the MIDI events coming from it, and how the Launch Control XL 3's various features can be accessed through MIDI messages.
We've expressed MIDI data in several ways:
-
A plain English description of the message.
-
When we describe a musical note, middle C is ‘C3’ or note 60. MIDI channel 1 is the lowest-numbered MIDI channel: channels range from 1 to 16.
-
We also express MIDI messages in plain data, with decimal and hexadecimal equivalents. The hexadecimal number will always be followed by an ‘h’ and the decimal equivalent given in brackets. For example, a note on message on channel 1 is signified by the status byte 90h (144).
