This is where it all began. The Launchpad was the birth of the grid system that fuelled an evolution in electronic music. It's time you joined in.
Grab a Launchpad. Now you can launch your clips from a grid of pads that match your session.
Want more grid? Just add another Launchpad - or perhaps a Launchpad Pro, which you can play like an instrument or use to control your other MIDI hardware. Not got much desk space? Try a Launchpad Mini instead.
All our Launch products can be chained together. The Launchpad gives you everything you need to start performing in Soundtrap for Education. They're all bus-powered via USB and class compliant, so you can just plug them in and start playing.
