Akai MIDI MIX - Button LED's

Hello Everyone - I was here reading this and other posts trying to figure out how to on earth turn on/off the LED lights on my new AKAI Midimix and I’m glad to say I figured out how to make it work like Gianluca mentioned above. The key is on the sequence of the steps:

  1. Add your widget to your rackspace and go to the MIDI tab
  2. Click on the “Learn” button
  3. Press down the button/pad you want to configure on your Midimix AND Keep it pressed!
  4. Click the “Sync” Button to turn it on while keeping the button on your Midimix pressed. Do not release it yet.
  5. Click “Learn” again to deselect it.
  6. Now you can release the button in your Midimix.
  7. Turn on “Momentary to latching”
  8. Now pressing and releasing the button on your Midimix will toggle the widget on/off.

This is the way I found to make it work as a toggle. I wasn’t able to figure out how to get it to light up a momentary though. Hope this helps!
