Akai APC Momentary Solo… possible?

Post by benjamingordon » Fri Oct 25, 2013 3:32 pm

Hi.

Does anyone know if its possible to change the solo buttons on the APC 40 to be momentary, rather than toggle?

Cheers

S'all good! Welcome to the club….

Think theres an M4L device on max4live.com that does that, should be easy to reprogram the remote script though if you find someone who can do python…

Wicked D.

That's perfect!

Not sure if I should wait to see if they release a new APC in the new year....

D...

I tried one out in the shop this morning and used that momentary solo max for live patch…

BUT… if i remap the solo to another track, outside of the control surface the lights are disabled… both for buttons, pads and knobs..

It that normal?

Midi feedback like the Launchpad probably? I use m4l for everything...
