Latching button acting like... latching button

[Wapata]

Me again for something that feel natural to me. I think it's not for you because you use the Midi-controllers with softwares that react to a click of a button (aka midi event) and me inline between my master-keyboard and midi-sound-generator.

So.
We can set momentary or latching button. But they do not act as "mono state" or "double state".

One exemple : lets say I use a physical latching button. It have tree pin, it's two button with inverted states.
So I use it this way : State one = MidiCC66=127 and State two = MidiCC66=1

But in fact I do not need tree wires for that, because if State one is on so state two is off and if state one is not on so state two is on.
So, with one real physical latching interrupter, i should be able to send two event regarding its state.
Right now, OpenDeck Configurator can't do that. Will it be able to do that ?

I use a trick right now, with and interrupter that use two button input and two pages of OpenDeck Configurator. But by doing that in can't use some other cool effects like using a momentary physical button to act as Expression CC11=1/127 and making a morse keyer
like effect

Would it be possible for you to use pins 1 and 2 as one button, and pins 2 and 3 as second button?

[Wapata]

It is totally possible. It just divide by two the functions usable (as one function is two state and so use two button). But it's working and i do it already.
One thing, OpenDeck read the "rising" or "falling" of a button in real time but not at power-on or preset-change. So the physical button do not show the real state of a function until it's actuated one time.

Once the PC opens USB connection, a second later all the button states are resent (and also for all enabled analog components). Example on Discovery:

EDIT: The same also happens when changing the preset. So, I wonder how are you testing this?

[Wapata]

I was reading it badly.
Because my button are not set to "none" i've read that as a polluting messages and miss the content :-(
Now i've cleaned the non used input, it's clear that it work as you show.

[Wapata]

Wait...
Can you confirm me the behavior of this ?

I think it's working a i want, CC=value if button is ON and CC=0 if button is release ?

Reply to myself and futur users ; yes it work !

Conclusions of this topic :
Double state button can work easily with one wire to the ground, one wire to digital input, and OpenDeck Configurator should be set at Midi message : CC/0 Off
It will do CCxx Value = On velocity / CCxx Value = 0

Edit : sorry paradajz
