Does anybody have one of these things and what does it actually do? I see it referred to often as a "clip launcher", which begs the question, does it interface somehow with Real Band? I mean, if I am playing something in Real Band, the clip I would need to launch would just be on its own track so it plays when it's supposed to.

The online references to this thing all say it's made to be paired with Ableton, which makes sense since that is a Novation product...

I just have no idea about what it actually does and most music store employees are totally clueless outside of what we can ALL read on the internet. I'd like to find someone that actually owns one.
