Any chance for the Akai MPK Mini Plus?

man - having such a hard time getting this working. updated to new 4.4, with DrivenByMoss 18.1.0. i plugged direct into my comp and everything was working fine. i added an extension cable to the usb, (still powered) and the display works but not the leds. i then tried my original setup, with the one cable, and now the LEDS still don't work! what could it be?

Sorry, no. The only access to the notes is via the sequencing API and there are no states for selected notes.

Not even NoteStep.isIsSelected()?

I went through this thread, and I am having the same challenge as this post:
viewtopic.php?p=8003069&hilit=vst#p8003069

But I don't see how that person solved the latching problem. My behavior is the same.

Hi Moss,

Firstly thanks for this great update! (as always)

(This is for Push 2) I'm not sure if this is a setting on my side that I got wrong, but only the LED of the active buttons are now lighting up (even at 100% LED brightness). Before, even the inactive buttons were lit up, so you can read them.

You can see in the photo what I mean - only 'setup' and 'note' are readable because they are currently selected / active. Looks like not everyone had this issue so I'm curious what you think it might be. Thank you!

Please ignore ^

For anyone who has this issue, make sure the power adapter is plugged in and turned on for your push 2. Silly me

superboy wrote: Tue Oct 25, 2022 3:27 am Yes thank you! I did watch this, but I must have missed that part. So the only function I can assign are in the modes. But now, how do I make it latch? I tried both absolute and absolute toggle, and both behave the same way. When i press the button down it goes to 127 and when i let go it goes back to 0. BUt the toggle shouldn't do this, it should stick to one setting and then go back to 0 with another click. I did not see in any video you showing how to do a latch.

edit, i keep trying to use user set or user toggle parameter, and both do the same thing (neither will latch).

I should also mention I am trying to map the controller buttons/faders to the VST parameters. I noticed earlier in this thread someone else having issues with that, which led to you adding the "user toggle parameter".

Seems that's a bug. It checks for a real latching button only. Will be fixed in the next update.
I guess I should also add these commands to the "normal" parameters and not only the user ones.

Would there be any issues with installing DrivenByMoss to use with other controllers along with his script for the Launchpad specifically?

No. In case a device is detected by multiple extensions simply add one of them and then you can switch between the implementations with the drop down list on the extension.

I have no plans for it.

Plug in power (and stay away from extension cables).

You are right, this info is available for the notes on the current page. But this does not cover all the notes which might be selected in the clip. So, I am not sure if this would be more confusing than helpful.

I can reproduce that (for all my controllers). Will ask support...
Is this Windows?

Indeed, though I think what really makes this a no-go is that a step can contain multiple notes, each in its own independent state of selectedness. So my suggestion is moot, API allows access to steps but not to actual notes.
