MIDI Mapping - APC20 led not working

Post by MrRibe »

Hello,

I own an APC20 to map my lighting presets and I am unable to have the LED lighting up when I launch a preset with the pad (lights up when I press and shuts down when i lift my finger).
However, when I launch the preset in Daslight5 the LED lights up... Also, when I map on my APC mini I am able toggle the led with the push of a button.

Is the APC20 compatibility broken or am I doing it wrong ?

Kind regards

I have exactly the same problem.
When the scene is off, no problem the LED turns red. On the other hand, when you put a scene on from the APC 20, the scene turns On on DVC5 but the pad remains without color. On the other hand, if you activate it with the mouse from DVC5, the pad lights up green.
Any idea why this doesn't work? after searching the forum I haven't found any solution to this problem despite several topics

Hello,

I believe I have seen a similar issue on an APC 40 mk2, so this might be linked... Could you please try to go to the MIDI Settings screen, disable the MIDI Input option, close Settings, test triggering scenes from the software - do the buttons light up as expected? Go back to Settings, re-enable the MIDI Input option, close Settings, test triggering scenes from the controller - do the buttons light up as expected, or does the problem persist?

Kind regards,
Will

If possible, you should test the APC20 with other MIDI software to see if the LED feedback works there. This can help determine if the issue is specific to Daslight5.
