modifier dependent LED feedback!
hi,
I don’t know if you guys all know this, in case you don’t, here is a way how to get automatic LED feedback dependent form the modifer layer you are in.
I guess I have to explain. Say you have two layers on your controler.
You have set a button to a “shift” modifer:
-shift button up= layer1 (M1 = 0)
-shift button down= layer2 (M1 = 1)
You have a button, which has a function dependent from the layer you are in:
- LED button1 in layer1 is “effect unit 1 on”
- LED button1 in layer2 is “effect unit 2 on”
Until now I had the problem that the status from my LED buttons don’t get updated when I change the layer, or better don’t get synchronised with the real status in TP.
example:
-effect unit 1 on = off
-effect unit 2 on = on
When I change the layer with my “shift” button, the LED status don’t get updated to the real status in TP.
But I just discovered a way how to do it.
- Add “Send Monitor State” two times to your ‘shift’ button.
- One “Send Monitor State” with ‘invert’ the other one normal
Now your LED gets updated to the real status when you change the layer.
I hope this tutorial is not too confuse, I have to hit the sack but I just had to share this.
