Has anybody been here before me??
Searched and cannot find anything on this unit
Really need your help.

First, I don't know how to script RGB Hotcue's LED's to behave like ..
Dim 50% then 100% 'when pressed'

Also

When I hit shift + pad mode 5-8
the RGB's do not change to reflect
the new pad mode.
Color's stay the same as pad modes 1-4

Thanks in advance

It works as expected here.

Please note that you should not alter the mapper for the pads.
You should modify the pad pages (use pad editor) instead.
Also keep in mind that XP2 does not have "true" RGB leds. It uses a color table that provide different intensity levels of predefined colors. This means that the colors it can show are somehow limited, and that there's a chance you get "two different colors" to look like it's the same (if their intensity level is too close)

PS: Most of the SHIFT+ pad modes for XP2 are split in half. Upper section changes, but lower section remains mapped to Hotcues. Perhaps that's what you describe as "pads don't change colors" ???

Hi, I have exactly the same issue. I created some new pages to rearrange FX according to my needs. Everything works fine; except for the colors. The page is reflected in VDJ as it should be, including the functions, colors etc. When I push the pads on the XP2, the functions are activated as expected. However, the pad color within VDJ did not transfer to the XP2.
This is only for PAD MODE 5-8, what I call the SHIFT MODUS. For PAD MODE 1-4 everything works like a charm.

I thought it might be related to the pages I newly created. But, I removed these, got the originals back and the same issue is still there.

Here's an example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<page name="HC+CTRL">
<pad1 name="`var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? cue_display 9 : cue_display 1`" color="var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? cue_color 9 : cue_color 1" autodim="false">var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? hot_cue 9 : hot_cue 1</pad1>
<pad2 name="`var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? cue_display 10 : cue_display 2`" color="var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? cue_color 10 : cue_color 2" autodim="false">var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? hot_cue 10 : hot_cue 2</pad2>
<pad3 name="`var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? cue_display 11 : cue_display 3`" color="var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? cue_color 11 : cue_color 3" autodim="false">var &apos;hc_page&apos; ? hot_cue 11 : hot_cue 3</pad3>

</page>

When I map the new page to PAD MODE 1, the colors transfer correctly.
When I map the same page to PAD MODE 5, the colors of PAD MODE 1 remain, but functions work perfectly.

Now, wouldn't mind 'cause the functions work, but it's confusing...

Don't have a clue how to solve this

How do you assign your pages on XP2 ?
Via GUI ? Or by changing the mapper ?

Via the GUI
The page really changes; functions are available.
But, the color scheme isn't transferred.

Ok, we were able to identify the issue and will be fixed on next version.
Thank you!

Hey Thanks for your replies!!!
sorry I am late, didn't get the 'you have replies' email🤷‍♂️

Its always the way
whenever you post a problem,
you invariably then work out the answer for yourself🤦‍♂️
which I had done😅

I have also just solved how to have the RGB colors change with every sample
in the sampler, which wasn't easy for me but now the XP2 has hit the sweet spot🎉
and I can now perform with it as I intend it to behave
Happy days🥳
