push 2: combine custom script and native display

Post by odisfm » Sun Jan 26, 2025 10:57 am

hey all,

I'm nearly done writing a custom script for push 2 in user mode. I was wondering if there is a way to keep the normal functionality of the push 2 display while in user mode, instead of the 'user mode is active' screen. I have seen ways to write custom graphics via external libraries, but I just want to show exactly what you'd see in Live mode

any help appreciated, even if its to tell me i's definitively not possible :)

so I somehow managed to make this happen accidentally while working on something else. I was trying to get the script to put the hardware in user mode automatically like so

```
USER_MODE = (240, 0, 33, 29, 1, 1, 10, 1, 247)
self._do_send_midi(self.sysex_tuple) # self being the root control surface object
```

after doing so my script kicks in and gets control over the incoming midi messages, but the screen stays just like it was. you cant really interact with it, as the custom script has the controls, but setting the mode (device, mix, etc) with something like ClyphX works

anyway, super impractical, especially as you need to set the mode like that every time (not by hitting the 'user' button in live mode), but I'll leave my findings here anyway

note: this same method doesnt work for the push 1
