Hi everybody...

I would like to use my APC20 with a Lightning Program (Freestyler DMX)

My Problem is:

the APC20 send out two Midi signals when i push and release a knob (Note on /Note off),
My DMX Lightning program sends only 1 singnal for example "Flash Button 1" Note: B0 30 00 for Note on and OFF
example ( i activate it, send B0 30 00, i disabled it ,send B0 30 00)

I am thinking about this.
At start the Knob is green , i push the knob on the apc it will be flashed red and the "Flash Button 1 " is aktivated on my Program.
then
i will push the apc knob again , then he will green again and the "Flash button 1 " is disable.

Do you know what i mean ?
I hope you understand my english

I have install the Translator version 1.71 and midi yoke

Sorry for the late response, Xone. Both Florian and I were at a trade show this past week and I have just returned home. He should be home sooner or later.

Regardless, let's get to your question. As a clarification, you are trying to have every button press send the same message, in this case B0 30 00. What I would do it record the press of the button

90 00 7F (make sure it is not pp) and the outgoing message be whatever you need it to be, in this case B0 30 00.

That make sense? I can put the specific code together tomorrow after I've gotten some sleep.

Sorry, yeah.

You're going to have a bunch of translators, all with different incoming messages but the same outgoing message. I'm going to use the button 90 00 for the first translator and go up from there. This won't be the same for your APC20, so please select Capture in the translator. Also, make sure the outgoing velocity (the last bit of data in the translator) is 7F, and not pp. If it's pp then you'll trigger then outgoing action every time you press and release the button. It'll look something like

Code: Select all

Translator 1 name: Flash Button 1
Incoming Action: 90 00 7F
Rules: none
Outgoing action: B0 30 00

Translator 2 name: Flash Button 2
Incoming Action: 90 01 7F
Rules: none
Outgoing Action: B0 31 00

Make sense?
