Launchpad LED Feedback

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone could help me with an idiots guide to getting led feedback to work with Bome's and the Novation Launchpad?

I know that you're supposed to just be able to send the same midi note as the button to get the led to light, but I can't seem to get it working. I'm having no problems mapping keyboard shortcuts and other functions in Ableton using Bome's, I just can't wrap my head around the led stuff.

Any help at all that anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Michael

Have you definitely got the right output ports/aliases set up in MT? Are you getting anything showing on the unit at all?

Scott,

Thanks for your reply, but I got it all sorted out. I appreciate your input though.

Much thanks,

Michael

sorry for my bad english ... does this mean you got it - or not?

If not - maybe take a closer look to your ableton midi config -> activate your your midi input and your midi output
for example:

1st way: Launchpad sends Note "C0" -> Receive MT Port1 (translate to C#0) -> Sends on Midi MT Port2 -> Ableton (Rx C#0 on BomeMT2)
way back: Ableton sends Note C#0 (to Bome MT2) -> (translate C#0 to C0) and send to MT Port1 to Launchbox

also, take a look to the value of the Note or the CC you'll send to launchpad, - if the value is 00 - maybe turns the light off if it' 7F it's on.

Hope I'm right ...

Best Tim

i know this is a bit cheap but i run bome's for the to convert the midi messages and then run the auto map that comes with launchpad just to do the lights
