feedback customization. Akai APC Mini MK2

I am using a APC Mini MK2 and I have the feedback working correctly. the issue I am running into is I want to increase the intensity of the LEDs and if I change the output of the midi to channel 7 I get my brighter LEDs on the main 64 button block, however when I do this I loose the LED status on the scene and other function buttons as these explicitly use channel 1 on midi. is there a way to conditionally choose the channel or specify the raw midi signal that I send?

Hi Andy.

I don't think you can work around that problem today without having a little 'translator' in-between.
Depending if you are on Linux or Windows there are today already such tools.
Have a look at this one for Windows: viewtopic.php?p=72080#p72080
Have a look at this one for Linux: viewtopic.php?t=16044
(I tested both, and they work like a charm ... with some differences in their configuration/feature set).

If you are a bit patient, I'd suggest to wait for the new QLC+ version ... because (see also post of Massimo), it will contain better native support for the MK2.
That would make it work consistent for both Windows and Linux.

HTH,
Maarten
