If you had standalone decks you wouldn't necessarily need a Faderfox device, there is a company called Retrokits and they offer small form factor MIDI USB host devices for less than 200 which, when paired with a Launch Control XL are on par with Faderfox boxes.Ī very nice aspect of these external USB hosts is that you can control devices in your computer and external hardware such as a drum machine, at the same time. In this case your laptop is your USB host. So the Launch Control XL has to be plugged in to a USB host in order to be to send its MIDI information over USB. Companies could offer both a USB connector and MIDI connectors (In/Out/Thru) on every device but not everyone is going to use both ![]() MIDI data can be sent across a 5 pin (DIN) MIDI cable, a regular AUX cable (this is a newer approach and best avoided for now) or USB. I don't know if Rekordbox has "MIDI Learn" but if not then you can use the Launch Control XL editor to define the knobs and faders to the values in Rekordbox.Īs far as controlling just CDJs without a computer, I think you would benefit from a little more explanation as to what the Launch Control has/lacks. ![]() Once you've installed the USB driver and updated the Launch Control XL, you just need to MIDI map Rekordbox parameters to the Launch Control XL. Download the Novation USB driver/Launch Control XL updater and Launch Control XL editor. Go to Focusrite's website (Novation's parent company), create your account, register your product and the necessary software will appear in your account.
