Hey,
thanks for the files. But you don't actually have to use drum mode, you can use both drum and note mode.
You can also use different channels to control brightness, pulsing and blinking.

Regards,
Matrix

Hey,

you can find everything in here. This is the official documentation for the communication protocol.
But I wonder how you got the Hex-Colors without looking in it.

Hey,

everything works fine for me. But if you use the b09 it wont work because of the bugs. In earlier versions it works fine. But you have to keep in mind that you have to use 1-16 instead of 0-15, so 0 in the protocol means actually 1 in DL and so on.
Btw we can switch to german if you want to.

Hey,

Also dass die b09 sehr verbuggt ist, ist ja bekannt.
Normalerweise gibt es die MIDI Channel 0-15. Jetzt ist es in DL5 so, dass es nicht Channel 0-15 sondern 1-17… zur Auswahl gibt. Die 17 kann man außer acht lassen, die wird zur nächsten 1. Das sollte offensichtlich nicht so sein, ist aktuell aber noch so. Wenn du jetzt die volle Helligkeit der LEDs willst, müsstest du den Channel 6 benutzen. Allerdings müsstest du in DL5 Channel 7 auswählen, weil alles um 1 verschoben ist.
In der b09 zu testen hat aber aktuell sowieso keinen großen Sinn, dadurch dass MIDI Outputs nur einmalig getriggert werden.

Mach wie du meinst, die Frage ist halt ob sie das überhaupt ändern.

If you wish to use the Akai APCmini mk2 with Daslight 5, you may need to create a custom MIDI mapping using the MIDI Learn feature in Daslight. This allows you to assign specific functions and colors to the different buttons and pads on the controller.

Es ist bekannt, dass die B09 Software fehlerhaft ist, und Sie erwähnen, dass es aktuell Unstimmigkeiten bei der Zuordnung von MIDI-Kanälen in DL5 gibt.

I don't know what feature you're talking about, I don't know such a feature. It would be nice if you could provide information e.g. how to use this feature. I think you're talking about another software or other version, we are talking about Daslight 5.

I have the problem that if I map anything on the APC it selects automaticly channel 1o at the first part. If I change it to channel 1 nothing works, if i leave it at 10 i can adjust the colors, but i cant adjust the pulse or flash because as soon as I change the channel at the lower part "MIDI exits" it just triggers the scene without changing the color or anything.
