Reply to Strange question regarding Traktor + Launchpad

Hey guys/gals,

So I'm looking to purchase a Launchpad to go with Twitch (in Traktor) but I was talking to a buddy and he said something about how unless I reprogram the Launchpad using Max For Live than the LEDs on the Launchpad won't illuminate my clips when rewiring into Traktor...

Does anyone know if this is true? I'm def a noob when it comes to this stuff so thx for the help

I should add all I'm trying to use the Launchpad is to launch acapellas or different loops on top of my Traktor decks.
