Possible to get LED brightness feedback when EN16 is in relative mode?

Brightness seems to natively scale with value when in absolute mode. Is it possible to get Encoder LEDs to reflect current values in Cubase when in relative mode?

Hi,

We have a complete guide on how to change LED values based on incoming MIDI. You can find it here: https://docs.intech.studio/wiki/more/midi-rx/

This seems like it’ll get me where I need to go but truly, as a professional composer who may like to tinker but doesn’t have the time, it’d be really helpful if the bread and butter functions like this were more easily accessible as pre made profiles.

I tried to set this up today. Questions:

In the documentation, where does the following code get place?

"if i ~= nil then
led_value(i, 2, param2)
end"

Does this technique only work on Relative 2s Comp mode? Can Bianry offset be used?

I got it mostly working but the LED would flash quickly before settling on a value while switching between tracks in Cubase. Is this expected?

If MIDI RX is receiving CC37, then I set the first (0) LED value. If it's receiving CC39, then I set the eighth (7) LED value. Using if i ~= nil then helps to prevent random LED value jumping. I will update the documentation accordingly. Also, the LED jumps could be due to the DAW sending values in your MIDI CC.

Thanks. I’m sorry but I
don’t follow. Can you give more context for the different CC values in this example? I’m trying to track the cc values of 1 controller not two?

This is just an example. The DAW should send back a CC and the corresponding value, which you can assign to an LED intensity.

Please check which CC number (param1) is sending the value (param2) that you would like to use to adjust the LED intensity. Then you can implement it in the same way I did
