Hi all,
Is there a way to have an effect parameter "on" when I hold down the pad on my Trigger Finger (or other controller) and "off" when I release the button? By default it is a toggle action which requires a second click (or touch). Sounds simple enough but I can't seem to figure it out.
Thanks in advance for the help.

effect on button down?

yes i believe you can do it.
It is possible on the UC-33 controller which I have so I would hope it to be the same on the trigger finer
Your button is probably configured to send note on note off messages on CC 147 - you need to change this to the correct CC 148 i think but you might wish to check that in the manual as I'm not in front of DAW right now
use the enigma software to change the values

as far as i know there's no easy way to do this in Live alone, as the midi mapping doesn't allow for setting mapped buttons or notes to latch mode (thats another one for the wishlist...)
if the trigger finger's pads can be set to latch mode, then all's good.
if not, but they can output aftertouch data, AND you can set the aftertouch to output CC data instead, then you can map that CC data to a wet/dry knob or an effect device's on/off switch.

got this from the trigger finger manual
• CC 147—Note On/Off: This CC setting results in the default behavior for the pads. Pressing the pad will send a Note On message with the played velocity,
and releasing the pad will send a Note Off message. When a pad is assigned to CC 147, the Program field will contain the note number to be transmitted
by the pad. The MSB value represents the note on velocity that will be used when the Locked Velocity Mode is enabled. The LSB value is the release velocity,
which you will typically leave at 0 (note off).
• CC 148—Note On/Off Toggle: When CC 148 is assigned to the pad, it will function in toggle mode. In this mode, a note on will be sent with the played
velocity the first time a pad is played. A note off will be sent the second time the pad is played. Like the CC 147 assignment, the MSB and LSB values dictate
the Locked Velocity of the notes. The MSB is the velocity used the first time a pad is played when Locked Velocity mode is engaged. The LSB is the velocity
used when the pad is played a second time when Locked Velocity Mode is engaged. By leaving the LSB value at 0, pressing a pad once will play a note at
your chosen velocity and the second press will stop it.
