I've run into this over and over and have never quite figured out how I'm supposed to handle it. I'm working with traktor. Alot of traktor's buttons are toggles. What I want is the custom button in lemur to toggle a given traktor button, and have the button accurately reflect the traktor button's state.
Ideally I'd like to just drop a button on a page, assign it a cc, then wire up that cc as input AND output for a button in Traktor and just have it work. Having tried that and failed, I feel like the only way to make it work is using scripts, separate cc's (maybe?) and then sending ctlout manually.

Re: Seemingly simple toggle button
I've been kind of wondering the same and I'm thinking it's an easy fix, but I'm eagerly awaiting an answer also.

Hi
There are at half a dozen Traktor templates in the User Library - have you checked them out yet . . .
I think having a look at them will probably give you a number of possible solutions . . .

Re: Seemingly simple toggle button
Good call, I'll check a premade template to figure it out myself, don't really need it for Traktor but the purpose is served the same!Macciza wrote:Hi

Hi
This may help as well http://liine.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=903
Add Traktor control via an On MIDI script if reverse control needed . .

Re: Seemingly simple toggle button
So the general concensus then is that in order to do this, scripting is required? I'll dig into some of the existing templates if I get some free time today.

Re: Seemingly simple toggle button
Was anyone able to figure this out? I've been loading tons of templates trying to figure it out and having no luck.
Re: Seemingly simple toggle button
I think I've found the solution, and it is indeed doable without scripting.
The trick is to do two things:
In the Lemur editor, you need to have your custom button's capture behavior UN-checked, and mode set to 'switch'.
In Traktor, you need to have the mode set to 'hold' for that particular button.
I still haven't wrapped my head around why this works but I'll take it if it means not having to script every button
