Awesome, must try this! So if I understand correctly I put a file called "midimix.xml" in "Documents\VirtualDJ\Devices" with the first device script and another file called "midimix.xml" with the mapping script in "Documents\VirtualDJ\Mappers"?

Got it working as I ask above, but I can't edit the post. I love that the LED's are on finally!! But how do I connect a LED to a button so it lights up when pressed (function on) and turns off when the function is off?

for more complicated stuff, you give the LED key entry a script in the mapping.
for simpler stuff you define a default key for a LED mapping to follow without needing a script.
it is advised that all LED definitions should have a default if it makes sense, you can have a default and choose to ignore it if your mapping calls for something a bit more technical.

Thank you locodog, I assume I need complicated stuff as usual, since I want the LED to depend on the function is on or off without me necessary pressing the actual button. Do you have example of script for one LED? For example if play is active or not.
Posted Sun 21 Jul 24 @ 1:58 pm
locoDog
It's just the script as the command but it's just evaluated, this is an example of something a bit more explanatory than just play
loaded ? play ? on : blink : off
Posted Sun 21 Jul 24 @ 2:15 pm

That worked perfectly :-D. I can get the LED to blink, Off or On depending on the function I want. But is there a way to dim it? Adjust overall default brightness for all LED´s?
Posted Sun 21 Jul 24 @ 5:16 pm
locoDog
loaded ? play ? on : blink : get_constant 0.2
maybe something like that.
Posted Sun 21 Jul 24 @ 5:37 pm
Baldy68
get_constant gives 100% brightness from 0.6-1.0 otherwise the LED is off so I assume these LEDs do not support dimming, thx for suggestion though.

Most of the devices from InMusic offer dimming when Off (when 0x01 velocity is sent), but not sure if this is the case with the MidiMix.
You can try to add zero="0x01" to the leds and see if they dim when you send off/false or still completely off.
E.g.

<led note="0x01" zero="0x01" name="LED_D3-B1" channel="0"/>
<led note="0x02" zero="0x01" name="LED_D3-B1" channel="0"/>
etc..

BTW, i just noticed that there are some double entries for some leds and buttons, not sure why .. so ..
E.g. for Leds, there are 2 x LED_Dx-B3 and 2 x LED_Dx-B1 (where x is from 1 to 4)

Thank you DJDAD for the suggestion. But it made all the LED's turned on and no more controllable.
And yes, an explanation/Manual from BOEGUN would be great. It seems that there are a shift function built in the script. Not sure.

Then there is no dimming, just on (0x01 to 0x7F)/off(0x00), so remove the zero=0x01 part from the leds.

Yes, I reverted back. But maybe that code is usable on my Push 2...
Posted Tue 23 Jul 24 @ 2:19 pm
locoDog
not wanting to go off topic, but push 2 LEDS can cope with dimming
