In this video, I take a closer look at the Novation Launch Control 3, a compact MIDI controller designed to give you hands-on control over your DAW, plugins, and mixes. With 16 endless encoders, an OLED display, and RGB LED feedback, it promises a more tactile workflow than using a mouse. I’ll walk through five ways this controller can improve your music production workflow, show how it works with popular DAWs like Ableton Live, and highlight a small detail that makes it surprisingly useful in real-world setups. I’ll also compare it to the Launch Control XL MK3 and talk about whether the smaller version is really the best value for your money.
