You got the Launch Control hooked up to the OT? I've been working on doing this with mine with a Kenton USB MIDI host. However, I found out you can't send a pattern change message from the LC, so might use a BomeBox to workaround.
Lukas Ojutdi So you use Bomes MIDI translator software on your computer to take any MIDI message and it can “translate”/trigger another action. So with Launch Control you could turn the left and right arrow buttons to next pattern or previous pattern. Apparently, that seems simple, but in order to do it the OT needs to receive a message that specifies a bank and a pattern I believe. You would have to make a variable to hold the pattern number in memory and it would increment or decrement when you press the LC arrow. So instead of just saying next pattern, it says MIDI message CCX or whatever it is, Bomes can go ok this message triggers this script which says pattern number variable is currently 1, increment that to 2, and send the Octatrack the proper MiDI message instead of the CC it originally got. Hope that makes sense. The BomeBox allows you to save that file into the box and then you don’t have to use the computer anymore.
Love it!!!!!! Wondering buying octatrack or mpc live mk2....mmmm...big decision

Interessting Idea, tell me how it works.
