### mapping:
- Four two-channel strips on both Launchpad (LP) and Launchcontrol (LC)
- **Generators:** odd strips control video clips/instruments
- **ModIfiers:** even strips control effects/transitions
LP odd columns
Row for each clip or one longer clip with "grains" on each row
modes per LP column,
looping one row,
sequencing active rows (next, prev, random)
LP Even columns:
Row for each effect
active rows effects are active
## Launchpad Channel
| Left (video clip/source) | Right (effect/blend) |
| ------------------------ | ---------------------- |
| toggle active/inactive | toggle active/inactive |
## Launch Control Channel
### Knobs
| Left | Right |
| ------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| Trim Start 0 | Trim End 1 |
| cue point | playback speed |
| Loop Mode: extend right : hold/cycle/mirror/black | loop: crossfade 0~1 |
| Sequence Mode: Next/previous/random clip LP col 1, row | Transform: Next/previous/random effect LP col 2, row |
### Faders
**L fader A:** Clocked sequence rate / Clocked loop rate
- once
- bar
- quarter
- dotted
**L fader B:** Visual Effect rate
- once
- bar
- quarter
- dotted
**R fader A:** "visual gain/level"
**R fader B:** Visual Effect level
### Buttons
**toggle clip mode**: (loop/sequence)
**toggle effect mode**: (loop/sequence)
**toggle L fader** A/B (clip loop clock interval: once/ bar/half/ quarter/dotted )
**toggle R fader** A/B (effect loop clock interval: once/ bar/half/ quarter/dotted)
