Use knob for hold modifier?

Hey guys, I’m trying to map a modifier to one of the knobs on my lpd8. What I would like it to do is when the knob is in the off position(all the way to the left) have no modifier on, then when i turn it have it turn my modifier on but in hold mode so when I turn it back to off the modifier also turns off.

What happens when I attach a modifier in hold mode is it will turn it on but then when I turn the knob back off the modifier stays on.

My guess as to what is happening is that the modifier is staying on because once I turn the knob on it is initially in hold mode but it doesn’t know to stop holding because the modifier is different. I don’t think this should be happening because the modifier shouldn’t be affected by other modifiers because I have not set it to react to any. All of my other button controls that I mapped to knobs work as they should(knob off = button off // knob on = button on[hold] // Knob off = button off).

Does anyone know of a fix to this?

Cant remember exactly but i’m sure i have done this before and i think its the fact your using hold mode that its not working. even though its a hold sort of function your after i think you need to use direct maybe.

If i get a sec and no one has answered i’ll have a ganders and report back.

When I use direct mode with 2 modifiers (m1=0 and m1=1) it just switches back and forth between the two really quickly because the knob is cycling between the two.

actually … just checked it and hold does work for me, so don’t know what i was thinking of before.

Have your type set to button, not knob or fader.

That is the strangest thing, I just tried it again and it worked. Ive been pulling my hair out for the last 4 hours trying to figure this out and all of a sudden it works. Thanks anyway man.
