live.remote~ can't handle buttons

Post by hoffman2k » Fri Oct 30, 2009 8:24 pm

Switching from dial parameter to dial parameter works properly with live.remote~, but if you tweak a button using live.remote and move on to a dial, the button won't work again in that session.

To reproduce:

- Map a live.remote~ to a "Device On" parameter of any device

- Set the value to 0. (Turn the device off with live.remote~)

- Now map the live.remote~ to any dial or another button

- Try to turn on the device you just turned off

In my case the device turns itself off immediately. Its stuck to 0. Which doesn't happen with dials and sliders.

I realize audio rate control may be overkill for buttons, but I still see this as a bug.
