Novation Launchpad X User Manual

You can assign Pads within a Custom Mode an “On” and “O” colour when pads within the 8×8 grid are
pressed/toggled. (e.g. when a note is being played or a temporary CC change is toggled). There may only be
one “On” colour per Custom Mode, but each pad may have a unique “O” colour.
Custom Modes may have any combination of notes, CCs, program changes and faders – you can set up your
own personalised control surface for your studio.
For more hands-on information on how to create your own Custom Modes, visit Components for an interactive
tutorial – it’s easier than it may sound!
