Novation Launchpad & Midi keyboards with Renoise?

… once the drivers are installed.

Right; that’s the thing.

The standard Launchpad is OK on Windows or OSX because you get the drivers for the OS when you get the device.

On Linux, maybe not so good.

[Howto] Launchpad + Linux

For those interested in using the Novation Launchpad with linux, I wrote a small program + library to register the launchpad as a regular ALSA midi device. get the sources make clean && make lpmidi plug your launchpad sudo ./lpmidi Et voilà ! you should see a new alsa midi device. I’ve just tried it with Duplex and the Tone Matrix, it’s all good.
