Multiple functions with one button?
Multiple functions with one button?
Is there any way I can get two or more things to happen with one button? For example, I want to create a 'toggle' button -
Enable track 1
Disable track 2
hit it again -
Disable track 1
Enable track 2
To toggle between them - Is this possible? I can get it to work with key-mapping but with MIDI I can only seem to turn them both on or off at the same time!

Re: Multiple functions with one button?
can't you invert the midi range ? (midi mapping screen, on the left)
Or simply, (i do this all the time) :
enable 1, disable 2 , THEN midimap them.

Thanks, tried both - inverting seems to just disable it, turning one off and then hitting the button doesn't work - both go on or off.
(not arming - just turning the track on or off - muting)

Re: Multiple functions with one button?
this works with keystrokes... (no midi on this computer).
Only solution for now is to use the crossfader instead.
But i am 99% you're missing something

Yeah, works fine with keystrokes, but not with my MIDI controller.
It's that 1% I need! Anyone know how to do this?

Re: Multiple functions with one button?
chapelier fou is right - invert the range on one of the switches. So activate midi map mode, map the two mute switches to a button on your controller; then go into the Mapping Browser and right click on one of the mappings and choose "invert range". Also, the midi button you use should be set to toggle (not momentary) on your controller. Works with my nanoKONTROL anyway.

Ah brilliant, didn't know about the right-click! Will give it a gocxris wrote:chapelier fou is right - invert the range on one of the switches.
