I have several questions about controlling parameters in Augustus Loop:
1. Is there any way to get the GUI to respond to MIDI input visually for commands that normally cause a button to light up (Stop, Reverse, etc.)? I can get the message across, but without a visual indicator it's hard to remember if Saturation is on/off etc. because the button stays lit regardless. Same goes for knob positions, although the numerical value visibly changes for those at least.
2. For some reason, Freeze Loop is not responding to my control messages. Should this CC be programmed to toggle between 0 and 127 or left at 127? In general, which approach works best for CCs sent from a footswitch (not an expression pedal)?
3. Is there any MIDI CC that controls the Fix Delay parameter? I hate using the MIDI Learn function in my DAW (Reaper) since it never seems to respond to my input.
Thanks a lot!

i have no doubts that Augustus is the best / most versatile looper around.
but it's midi implementation is a big pain in the ass
why not having a right click ( learn ) and an easy midi controll scheme !?:(

This should be fixed in AL 2.3. Can you check?crumbledfingers wrote:1. Is there any way to get the GUI to respond to MIDI input visually for commands that normally cause a button to light up (Stop, Reverse, etc.)?
0 & 127 should turn it on and off.crumbledfingers wrote:2. For some reason, Freeze Loop is not responding to my control messages. Should this CC be programmed to toggle between 0 and 127 or left at 127? In general, which approach works best for CCs sent from a footswitch (not an expression pedal)?
Hmm, apparently not. How odd. You could easily add it with a script though.crumbledfingers wrote:3. Is there any MIDI CC that controls the Fix Delay parameter?

I updated my copy and it works as you describe. Thank you! I have some other issues that I may cover in another thread, but you've been very helpful.
