I’m trying to get the lights on my APC Mini (which respond to midi notes and the value determines the light color) to reflect the status of a plugin - so that, for instance, if it is on one preset one button it lit up, and on a second preset then a /different/ button would be lit up. I’ve considered some workarounds:
a single button to toggle between presets, and then have the single button be a different color to represent different presets (I only need to differentiate between two)
But what I don’t want is:
two different buttons to select each individual preset, and then the state reflected by a single button’s light
Also, if I use the Selected Preset Index then there’s no way to alter those values - like add +1 to them, or map “0~1” preset to “1~2” value, so that I could pick which colors the buttons were for the two presets.
And I seem to be struggling with this. I’ve poked around with the various Selected Preset bindings and don’t seem to be finding the right option
Further info:
the way the APC Mini works is that each buttons sends a certain midi note, and that button’s lights respond to the same midi note. So if a button sends C0, then sending back C0, velocity 0 will turn the light off, C0 velocity 1 will turn the light a certain color - C0, velocity 2 will turn the light a different color if it has any more, etc.
