**Problem: Nested Modifier States in Traktor?** Hey Guys, I am running into a little bit of an issue here. Its better if I explain it as … this part is basically a toggle button between Modifier and M1 \> M0 Modifier Button A: Sets M1=1 Modifier Button A: Sets M1=1 Back to M1=0 I am using Controller: _Button_, Mode: _Direct_ and values 1, 0 Problem begins when I try to temporarily put another modifier state M1=2 while I am in M1=1 with Modifier Button B. Here I am using the Hold Mode because I want to get the state back to M1=1 when I let go of the button. But the state gets stuck at M1=2 and does not switch. I am using this to switch between FX modes, single to group and back. So the knobs are temporarily switched to Effects selectors for the three slots then back to Dry/Wet for each effect. I plan on using 4 modifiers for the for fx slots and switching modes independently. Is there a way around it? ---

Set your second button to M1=2, then set value go back to 1 (with invert) ---

**Nothing…** Does not work… unless I am doing it wrong. Mapping here. [https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0VyuS3OVC0pVnp2QTI1elRuMjQ/view?usp=sharing](https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0VyuS3OVC0pVnp2QTI1elRuMjQ/view?usp=sharing) ---

**This has the same effect as the one I made.** Hehe… I actually fixed it 🙂 You forgot an invert send from Button B. Thanks man! ---
