...i tried to set up the ranges so that they cover the whole 127 steps but without success...maybe you don't see the behaviour because you've mapped the on/off via the multimapper device since i also don't have it when i select the instruments when the chain selector macro is mapped to a knob (on my...

...i don't know how to upload stuff, so no unfortunately... ...does it work for you when every instrument is one step in the chain selector or only when you have e.g 5 steps for one instrument?...do you stack "plain" instruments or instrument racks?...this is strange indeed... when i have ...

...strange...when i select a range, e.g. 5-10 for an instrument rack with the on-range also set to 5-10, dialing to 5 with my push selects the instrument rack in off-status, from 6-10 it's on...

...thanks for your reply!!!...i'll give it a try tonight...

hi again,
i'm playing around with these instrument racks and can't find a way to have the selected instrument be in "focus" so that i can easily use this instrument's macros with my push…is there any way at all?…

...ahhhhhhhh...ohhh...this opens a new perspective for me...ha...thanks!!!!!!...

...so you guys also use the macros to turn the instruments on and off, right?...

...right now my workflow to reduce cpu consumption is that i "cleaned up" my liveset so that it only contains 8 tracks of instruments...and change them by switching the instrument racks...but this method seems a little more practical...thanks again!
