Hello,
I am playing with the trial version before committing to purchasing BOME Midi Translator Pro. So far so good. I am using a Behringer X-Touch with Final Cut Pro X and have managed to control quite a lot of FCPx functionality using the x_Touch.
My query relates to lights on the buttons. I can easily send midi signals to the x-Touch to turn lights on however I cannot find an easy way to turn the light off when I press another button. There are some 80 buttons with lights on the x-Touch and I just want the button I programmed to be lit when I press it.
The only way I have been able to resolve this is to send a midi signal with zero velocity to all notes, when i press another button, that's 80 x 80 translators. There must be an easier way. Any help would be gratefully received.
Regards.

Hi,
You can use a timer and iterate through the note numbers to turn the LED's off.
------
Translator : Turn ga off notes
Incoming: Note Off any channel Any Note
-------
Rules:
// set counter
ga=80
// End of Rules
-------
Outgoing: Tmer "LED-Off" repeat ga times
Options: Swallow

------
Translator : LED Off timer
Incoming: Timer "Note off"
-------
Rules:
// keep in mind with X-touch you send note-on with velocity 0 to turn off an LED
pp=ga
ga=ga-1
qq=0
// End of Rules
-------
Outgoing: Note-On MIDI CH 1 Note pp value qq
Options: Swallow

If the note numbers are not sequencial, then you might need to set the note value based on the iteration number.
For instance
if ga==80 then pp=14
if ga==79 then pp=5
... etc
instead of just pp=ga
