FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Novation offers Launch Control 3, a compact new addition to its Launch Control range


Los Angeles, CA – Novation has released Launch Control 3, the latest generation of its popular, compact control surface and a smaller sibling to the Launch Control XL 3, unveiled in 2025. Available now, Launch Control 3 is designed to deliver additional hands-on control for DAWs, plugins, and hardware both in the studio and on stage. The redesigned Launch Control features 16 endless rotary encoders, eight assignable buttons and a crisp OLED display that delivers essential info in real time. It works seamlessly with DAWs and plugins via USB-C and features 5-pin MIDI In, Out, and Out2/Thru connections for connecting MIDI hardware. Launch Control 3 features deep, custom integration with major DAWs including Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase and Bitwig plus Mackie HUI support for Pro Tools and other software. In addition, Novation Components makes it easy to create and save up to seven Custom Modes, giving users easy access to controls across any combination of hardware and software from one tactile interface. 

Key features:

  • Powerful integration with all major DAWs: Deep integration with Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, Bitwig, and more — plus Mackie HUI support. 
  • Connect all your hardware: 5-pin MIDI In, Out, and Out2/Thru connections with comprehensive filtering and routing options that work with or without a computer. 
  • Create custom mappings: Assign MIDI parameters to encoders and buttons, store up to seven Custom Modes, and manage them with Novation Components. 
  • Crisp OLED display: Get detailed, real-time feedback on each parameter as you adjust. 
  • 16 endless encoders: Pan tracks, adjust sends, or customize your own controls, all with adjustable acceleration curves and RGB status indicators. 
  • Eight assignable buttons: When using a DAW, these can be set to Solo, Arm, Mute, or Select tracks — or mapped to custom functions to suit your workflow. 
  • Software included: Launch Control 3 comes with Ableton Live Lite and Cubase LE, plus Klevgrand’s Fosfat, Baby Audio’s Parallel Aggressor, and Output’s Movement. 
  • Get started fast: Launch Control 3 is easy to set up with Novation’s tutorials and Easy Start tool.
