This is some quick and dirty code I have been using to play around on my Novation Launchpad. The code is made up of general purpose MIDI in and out objects together with a basic wrapper object for the Launchpad's MIDI protocol. The code for a sequence experiment (see youtube clip) is included too.
Note that these programs do not make any sound.. they need to route MIDI to a suitable synthesizer program. I used Propellerheads Reason together with MIDI YOKE (a tool for piping MIDI between applications). In Reason create a new "control surface" for (Preferences, Keyboards and Control Surfaces, Add, "Other" and select MIDI Device "In From MIDI Yoke : 1". Similar process can be used to drive other synth software.

While(! Grid Tricks: How Launchpad S Differs, Emulate Push with Launchpad, 11 Launchpad Display, More. Life on the grid gets better and better. Yes, these blinky, lighty arrays of squares do continue to proliferate. But musicians are also hacking away to make them more useful. And they do that with perhaps nothing as much as the Novation Launchpad, a kind of workhorse of the grid world. While one of the simpler grid controllers available, Novation’s hardware is also uniquely affordable – and uniquely rugged, standing up to plenty of abuse. Here, we get to see how the Launchpad S differs from the original, how both Launchpads can emulate Ableton’s flashy-new Push, and what happens when you play this grid – or turn eleven of them into a really expensive display. The Launchpad S was a subtle update, but the recently-redesigned Controllerism.com went through a detailed video review of those subtle tweaks, visible at top. Details: At SONAR this year, there was a fantastic Music Hack Day full of wonders.
