Buttons with indicator

Question

I'm making a control panel with momentary switches , to select presets of SampleTank midi music app.

Selecting is already working well,  but i want to have an indicatior for each button

to see which is the the last selected .

Who knows a solution for that ?

Comments

Please be a bit more specific, because I don't understand exactly what you want.

What do you mean with momentary switches?
How many momentary switches do you have?
Does every momentary switch select one preset?
What is this button you are talking about? Is it the same as a momentary switcher or not?
What did you make so you can switch presets?

I'm talking to this user over the support email, so... we'll see what conclusions we come to there. Thanks!

Ok. Good to know

But I think the question is how to send an on AND an off and still leave one of the buttons showing. I think that, with enough controls and tinkering, this is possible.

Hello zoerseltv,

Making a button control group always was a bit tricky becourse the group would sent unwanted midi masages. MD 1.7 corrected this. So for you and other designers I have come up with this tutorial template with instructions within. Hope you enjoy this.
