LED feedback acts like momentary for a toggle
In CSS, trying to do three things with one button press:
Mapping 1 (Device Parameter). “activate” a device slot (this slot is configured to bypass a vst plugin). I want the LED feedback to only respond to this mapping. Under “Controller Input”, I first selected “Default” under “LED Feedback” but the LED feedback is only momentary, the feedback does not stay toggled even though the activation of the device slot stays toggled. I then selected “Custom” under “LED Feedback” and under “Send Feedback To”, reselected the button, still acts momentary.
Mapping 2 (Device Parameter). “activate” another device slot (this slot is configured to open/close a vst plugin). I do not want the LED feedback to respond to this mapping so under “LED Feedback”, I selected “Custom” and left it blank next to “Send LED Feedback”. The device slot activates like it should.
Mapping 3 (Highlight Navigation). Highlight/select the track where the device is located. This isn’t working, doesn’t change the track highlight to the prescribed track. I did the same thing as Mapping 2 above as I don’t want LED Feedback for this so under “LED Feedback”, I selected “Custom” and left it blank next to “Send LED Feedback”.
So how do I get “toggled” LED feedback in the above scenario and how do I get Track highlight/selection working. Is this making sense? Happy to clarify, feel free to ask. Thanks!

Edit: Actually, realized I still had all the midi mappings that were there pre-CSS, so I basically started over. I deleted them all, and then started a new blank script and just wanted to see if I could get the first mapping working on one button. I’m not getting any feedback at all now and the parameter only responds on the second button press and then won’t toggle back. Any insight? (tried to upload current script and controller files for this problem, won’t let me replace over the original ones I uploaded)
Yes, it’s kind of an issue that someone making a post can’t add any comments with formatting options. You can still edit your original post and add images that way.
I’ve tested your Parameter issue out myself and also ran into some problems setting it up. In the end I found the answer in this video (timestamp). If the parameter’s max value is 1.0, we need to set the maximum to 1. I tested it on the first parameter of a Sampler Device (which is the Reverse toggle switch).
I used a momentary button to test it with so in my case I set control override to On/OFF with switch type set to Momentary. In your case, I think Switch Type will have to be Toggle.
Let’s see if this works.
