Greetings Mulchers,
I'm thinking about dipping my toe in the world of matrix controllers for the first time (the new Novation Launchpad has the kind of ticket price that catches my attention). Before I take the plunge I'm interested in hearing about your experiences with a Mulch\matrix combo when composing, improvising or performing.

Thanks in advance,
Kenneth

Doh! - just realised this should have gone in the "Hardware Controllers" forum.

I'm actually waiting for Livid to process my order for their latest 'Block' controller. I was waiting forever to get my hands on a Monome (will be on order as soon as that next batch come online!) and decided to get a Block to put me on.

I'm in the midst of writing a Bidule patch that will turn the 8x8 grid into an X/Y controller for the Metasurface - great for time-stretched breaks and drones.

The Launchpad looks good (£149, too!) but I didn't like the massive tie-in it has with Live. I prefer my controllers link-free!
