 Hi Gustav --

Thank you for your clarification.
The AKG microphone will probably be the next thing to purchase, somewhere next year :)

BTW, what do you think about the following:

L. V. Beethoven - Für Elise (Launchpad Cover)
http://tinyurl.com/q6h3sh8
Is it sounding "flat" to your ears?

Mys son has started to play Launchpad less than an year ago, he is self-taught and he is now performing rather well AFAICS. 
He isn't doing classics (the above isn't his Launchpad playing recording), he likes more electronic music as is performed on the left part of the following video-clip:

Mozart Meets Trap (øwls vs. Himself): Turkish March Remix

BTW, with microphone, another more professional version of Launchpad should arrive soon here :) Thank you.

>I mean that if (performed) music followed exact rules, it would be boring. You may recall many years ago, that some fed a Moog synthesizer with the exact nodes of a piece of Beethoven. The output was, of course, correct but judged "dead" to listen to because of the missing variations a skilled performer always will add.
