Ardour 8.0 released

Your first link is to an older version of the Launchpad Pro that Novation no longer sells or makes. The Mk3 is the current version of the Launchpad Pro.

As our release notes indicate, we hope/plan to announce support for the cheaper Launchpad X and Mini during the 8.x development process.

Novation still makes and sells it - see the first link.

If you click on the "Add to basket" you will find that it is sold out, and if you dig deeper you will find you can only get refurbished units.

Not for me. I guess the website forwards you to a different region's shop.

I would not be surprised if the existing LP Pro support in Ardour 8 works with an older version, but they are fundamentally different devices.

I can check on it whenever I get started on the mini and X versions.

I definitely don't have the budget for a Mk3 but I can see a number of original Launchpad Pros and Mk2s for sale on local websites for not much money. Count me in as another person interested!
