Using Launch Control XL with Circuit Download the LCXL-Circuit Templates.zip file from novationmusic.com/downloads There are five templates in this zip file: 1. Mixer 2. Macros 3. Synth 1 Edit 4. Synth 2 Edit 5. Drums To use the templates next download the Launch Control XL Editor from the same location, run the installer (Windows) or open the disc image (Mac). Follow the instructions. Once you have the editor running, connect your Launch Control XL. You then need to load the templates one at a time and save them to your unit. The steps are: Click the ‘File: Load’ button Select one of the .syx files, e.g. LCXL1-1to6MixerwSends.syx Click the ‘Device: Save’ button Select one of the User template locations* Repeat the above steps for each template. *We have numbered the templates 1 to 5 so you could use User template slots 1 to 5 to load these into for convenience. If you are using these slots already then you could load them to different numbers. You can also use the Editor to back up your templates. Once you have the 5 templates loaded to your Launch Control XL you no longer need the Editor. Now you can connect the LC XL to Circuit via your DAW or use a stand- alone USB-MIDI host. Please note, for the templates to Control Circuit correctly they use MIDI channels 1, 2, 10 and 16 for Synth 1, Synth 2, Drums and Global controls. Most DAWs will route incoming MIDI to a single output channel, so look for the setting to enable a track to output to multiple MIDI channels. If you’re using Ableton Live, we have provided a Live project template that sets up 4 tracks to handle the routing correctly between the two devices. https://support.novationmusic.com/hc/en-gb/articles/208379135-Ableton-Live- MIDI-Routing-template-for-Launch-Control-XL-and-Circuit
