MIDI controller problem

in Loopy Pro

Hello, I have HOTONE AMPERO CONTROL and I still do not understand how it right use with Loopy Pro. It is working, I am able to sometimes something control, but not what I reely want :-).
For beginning. How can I simulate same setup like with fingers? For example: SW1 like finger for clip 1, etc….. (1.tap - record, 2.tap - play, 3.tap - stop)
Thank you very much for some advice.

    You're going to need to be more specific about what you want to do with each switch.

    Bindings can have more than one action and you can set up the actions to happen "on next trigger" so that tap 1 does something, tap 2 does the next thing, etc. You might want to start by looking in the manual section about actions.

    But there are often more than one way to do things, and the best depends a lot on the specifics you're trying to achieve.

    Also, be careful about toggles. You probably want to set up the controller to send momentary CCs, value 127 on press, 0 on release.

    First of all, I'm trying to understand the logic. So now I'd like to focus only on switch 1 and set it according to my previous post. I believe that I'll be able to set the rest myself depending on further use. I'll only use it for home training and small ideas.

    If you midi learn a loop in Loopy Pro’s default project what you describe is what should happen.

    Please create a new project from
    loopy pro’s default project. Make sure there are no midi bindings in the global profile

    Midi learn the first clip’s play/stop and

    Press 1 will start recording
    Press 2 will stop recording and start playback
    Press 3 will step

    See:

    Also check that your controller is set up correctly:

    I have tried same steps like on the video, but without success. Ampero is set up on momentary.
    Listening function not works, but in the past I was sometimes able to configure it handly. It is not working too now. Where is a problem please?
    Here is my video:

    Value is 0.

    Try some different modes in the ampero setup.
    Now on momentary it does not send a buttonDown, only a buttonUp.

    See the instructions and video om the page I linked to about how to check for momentary set up.

    You screenshot from midi wrench shows only off messages being sent.

    The action you want is play/stop, which is the default action, not record.

    Enter midi learn and tap the clip and it will be ready to learn. If the pedal
    Is set up correctly and connected, tap the pedal and the midi message will be learned.
