multiple layers for buttons/encoders; a question for better understanding...

Design Concepts

hi there,

… this might be a stupid question. But I didn’t find anything about it so far…

I know, that it’s possible to work with multiple layers for buttons/encoders, so that you can have multiple functions on one button/encoder by switching the layer.

As far as I understood it, these layers work for the whole button/encoder layout, right? So, if you switch the layer, the whole panel switches.

What I would need, would be a way to have multiple independant layers for certain areas of the panel.

In (hopefully) better words:

Let’s say, you have 8 buttons with two layers. And then you have another 8 buttons with two layers. Is it possible to switch layers independantly for those two button-groups?

cheers,

John

Yes. You can make the buttons do whatever you want, so long as you are prepared to modify the firmware :slight_smile:

ah ok. So basically it’s like I understood it.

Anything else can be done “by hand”  ;D

Would it be sufficient to define multiple banks in a such way that only part of the encoder/ button are changed and other parts are similar to the other bank?
