Hi,

in setup_midibox64.asm you could assign the menu buttons to different DIN pins which are not used, such as:

;; TK: menu buttons disabled for Benji
#define DEFAULT_DIN_MENU_EXEC		64  ; would be the first button on the 9th SR
#define DEFAULT_DIN_MENU_RIGHT		65  ; would be the second button on the 9th SR
#define DEFAULT_DIN_MENU_LEFT		66  ; would be the third button on the 9th SR
#define DEFAULT_DIN_MENU_SNAPSHOT	67  ; would be the fourth button on the 9th SR

Thereafter the application has to be recompiled, and the new .hex file has to be uploaded.

As you can see, I already did the changes for you... just download this special version (no new compilation required):

Hy!
Thanks the answer, the software works perfectly. I have any question. I used this controller with Virtual DJ pro. Have you any ide to how can I the LED modul configure? Example: When I load a song on a deck then the play button is blinking. How to implement it whit the DOUT module?
Thanks Benji

Such a function would have to be provided by the Host software - it also has to handle the blinking.
MB64 doesn't know when you are loading a song...

Hy!
The Virtual Dj can send midi signal when the song loaded. I dont know how to refer to the leds. What are the leds identify?
Example when i pressed a button then send 0-30 message on virtual dj.

If you've connected a LCD to your MIDIbox, you could upload the MIDImon application to determine the CC number.
Without a LCD you could use a MIDI monitor running on your PC or Mac.

E.g. for Mac I found this app useful: http://www.snoize.com/MIDIMonitor/
It has a very useful "spy" function which allows to display events sent to the MIDI Out.

For PC you could use http://www.midiox.com in conjunction with MIDI Yoke: send the events from your DAW via a virtual (MIDI Yoke based) MIDI interface to MIDI-Ox to display the event.
