LaunchControl



“Shoutout to the Launch Control Team! In the first 30 days of implementing Launch Control in our business, we locked up 4 contracts with larger margins than our other marketing channels. The done for you program that you guys set up with your Remote Lead Managers has definitely made locking deals better and more efficient. Launch Control XL is the ultimate controller for Ableton Live. It helps you focus more on your music and less on your laptop by providing 16 buttons, 24 knobs and eight faders that integrate seamlessly with Live to give you total hands-on control.

Launch Control XL

New features:
- Added full class compliance (LaunchControl XL now supports use with MIDI-hosts like Kenton 'MIDI USB Host' or iConnectivity 'iConnect MIDI')
Release notes for Firmware Updater 1.2 (firmware revision 59)

New features:
- Added HUI compatibility *
- Added additional MIDI port 'LaunchControl XL HUI'
Fixes:
- Fixed crash: Sending Sysex Messages with values out of LaunchControl XL´s parameter range to the device

*Due to the Pro Tools HUI implementation, the centre detent of the LaunchControl XL pan pots will not directly correspond to the centre position of Pro Tool’s pan pots. The controls still work relatively to turn pans left and right. HUI is designed to work with encoders for pan and send controls. The Launch Control XL has pots rather than encoders which have an absolute position. In order to make these work we ‘emulate’ the operation of the encoders in firmware.

The pan and send controls don’t have pot pick-up, they move immediately from whatever position they are in. This is great if you want to make a small adjustment but you may find you hit the end of the pot’s physical travel before before the virtual control on screen. To correct for this you may need to turn the control from one end to the other in order to reset the range. You will need to do this when you first load a session, when you bank tracks (9-16, 17-24 etc.), or when you change from pan to send a, send b etc.

Launch control is an electronic aid to assist drivers of both racing and street cars to accelerate from a standing start. Motorcycles have been variously fitted with mechanical and electronic devices for both street and race.

Popular automobiles with launch control include the BMW M series, certain marques of the Volkswagen Group with Direct-Shift Gearbox (most notably the Bugatti Veyron), Porsche 911 (sport+ mode), Panamera Turbo, Alfa Romeo with TCT gearbox and certain General Motors products. Mitsubishi also incorporated launch control into their Twin Clutch SST gearbox, on its 'S-Sport' mode, but the mode is only available in the Evolution X MR and MR Touring (USDM). The Nissan GT-R has electronics to control launch but the company does not use the term 'launch control'[1] since some owners have equated the term with turning off the stability control to launch the car, which may void the warranty of the drivetrain. One version of Nissan GT-R allows user to launch the car by turning the Traction Control to 'R' mode.

Control

Operation[edit]

Launch control operates by using an electronic accelerator and a computer program. The software controls acceleration based on engine specifications to make the car accelerate smoothly and as fast as possible, avoiding spinning of the drive wheels, engine failure due to over-revving and clutch and gearbox problems. In racing cars, this feature is only available at the start of the race, when the car is stationary in the starting grid. After the car is running at a certain speed, the software is disabled.

Reason for use[edit]

Racing drivers have only a very short time at the start of a race in which to achieve competitive acceleration. High power delivery to the gearbox and driven wheels cannot easily be managed even by the most skilled drivers.

History[edit]

Developments in electronics in the 1980s enabled the introduction of launch control.

In 1985, Renault's RE60 F1 car stored information on a diskette which was later unloaded at the pits, giving the engineers detailed data about the car's behaviour. Later, telemetry allowed the data to be sent by radio between the pits and the car. Increasing the use of electronics on the car allowed engineers to modify the settings of certain parameters whilst it was on the track, which is called bi-directional telemetry.

Among the electronic driving aids were a semi-automatic transmission, an anti-lock braking system (ABS), a traction control system, and active suspension. The 1993 Williams FW15C model featured all of these aids. This trend was ended by the FIA when it outlawed these aids for the 1994 season, considering that they reduced the importance of driver skill to too great a degree. Bi-directional telemetry was also forbidden, which was soon reinstated as the FIA found it too hard to analyse the engine programmes in order to search for hidden code that could be found breaking the rules.

Fully-automatic transmissions, traction control, and launch control were allowed again from the 2001 Spanish Grand Prix, but as of the 2004 season, they were outlawed in order to reduce the money needed for a competitive F1 team.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]

Motorcycle usage[edit]

Street motorcycles have been fitted with factory devices to balance power characteristics to rider requirements.[13] Competition entrants can call it 'holeshot'.[14][15] Race machines are increasingly using additional suspension-altering technology to lower the stance and aid aerodynamics.[16][17][14]

Motocross bikes use mechanical holeshot devices to temporarily compress the front suspension prior to race-start.[18][19]
