Sorry but I don't understand your answer.
Perhaps it will be done with the forthcoming Fix?

Midi Out Signal for Pause/Freeze is a good idea, but it is not done.

Pause/Freeze are now triggered with the negative edge of the Midi Button.

I'm sorry but it isn't !
I've checked it with my Brain V2 Controller & an Omnitronic Fad-9 & an APC MINI.
And I don't think that all the controllers failed.
Still the same as it was before - Positive edge triggers Pause & Freeze / negative edge the button's.

1.Assign a Midi Controller Button to the Freeze function.
2.Assign the same Midi Controller Button to a scene button.
3.Press down the Midi Controller Button and hold it - Freeze is even triggered (positive edge)- scene Button not !
4.Release the Midi Controller Button and now the scene Button is triggered.(negative edge)
5.Check the same with Pause

Meanwhile I've looked closely to the problem.
Every abovementioned Midi Controller sends out a "Note On" Message if a button is pressed and hold.
After releasing the button the Midi Controller sends "Note Off" Message.
It would seem that Pause & Freeze are triggered with Note On, while Live Button's waiting for Note Off Command.
That's the difference - so - to use an empty scene to visualize Pause & Freeze the Midi commands have to be the same as for the button's.
Can you once again take a look at your code please.

Please try again with this fix file (8.1.30.1) : http://download.thelightingcontroller.c ... ew/fix.zip
It should solve your problem if your controller is sending "Note" messages.

Hmmm, :?
ok. You've solved the different triggering of Pause/Freeze and Button's.
Note On Message will trigger, while Note Off does nothing. Fine.
But still no chance to visualize the Pause Button because the Software is like it is.(Please don't get me wrong)
As I suggested before: Best solution would be a Midi Out Message for Pause & Freeze.
I'll sit tight and wait until this is done by you. (Hope this will be done?) :roll:
Thanxs again for your support.
