MIDI Note/CC to button (BAR >> / LOCATE = freeze), OS2XL

Anyone have this working or cares to test?

Basically I'm using midi translator to turn SYSEX to Note and then send this to MPC (Midi note/cc to button). I have Transport working besides the LOCATE commands which result in a loop. If you press >> on the MPC, it goes forward one bar, if you hold it in, it goes ffw until you release. With Midi note to button, it send "note on" but no release, so it behaves like you'd have the button pressed. To get out of the "loop" the Stop button on the MPC must be pressed.

And no, I dont have a midi/MMC loop. It behaves like so even when all midi sync/mmc in/out have been switched off.

I've exchanged several emails with JJOS developers but it seems we have somewhat of a language barrier... No luck with this so far.

When talking with JJ you need to make steps to reproduce the issue as clear as possible. Preferably a video. Hopefully some1 tests this (sorry I don't have time atm).

just sending note on means maybe you need to send a note off afterwards?

well this is not the case with "Play", "Play Start" and "Stop" messages...
If anyone cares to look into "Midi Note/CC To Button" you can only change a midi note or CC, not how the actual button on the MPC should act, not "BAR >> On", or "BAR >> Off". Well that would be just plain stupid to have to use 2 buttons for "BAR >>" anyway - so 4 buttons for LOCATE altogether. It should toggle on/off by default as the physical </> buttons do on the MPC. If held in, then by all means send the message as long as the button is held. But at the moment it's ON, or nothing. Unusable.

The first thing I did was send the bug to be reproduced step by step and got a very vague non-inormative answer... Now I've sent a video, waiting for feedback.

Still you're welcome to try it out good people

It works the same as using the actual button for me.

god dangit

Anyone else?

I had the same problem, I reprogrammed my Novation Zero SL controller to send both Note On and OFF messages, it fixed the prob. I wish I could assign an external CC to this function, and others. The CC to Button list is kinda limited in this sense.
