yo. so i wanted to have a green rectangle and use it as a display switch if my effect rack in live is on or off. that is, i want to send the midi parameter name to live and i want a black box, that when triggered with a cc value of 127 it will go green.

ive got several effect racks mapped up which im switching on/off using a qwerty keyboard, and this way i could have some visual feedback on it, since my keyboard doesnt have led feedback 😉

so basicly: how do i make a rectangle that recieves midi, and switches according to a cc value i tell it to? cause i have no idea. im pretty new to this. or rather, i was here a looooooong time ago, but i figured ill come back and see if i can wrap my head around it this time.

Like this?:

The only tricky thing is that the stock timer doesn't respond to MIDI instigated triggers and so I've used my MIDI compatible timer module. Everything else is fairly simple.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
