I’m wondering if it’s possible to manually put the hardware into “Drum Mode”. I believe the sysex that is sent when entering drum mode is F0477F4F62000102F7. I’ve tried manually sending that message to no effect.
the goal is to force the matrix LEDs to full brightness, and for my use case it’s not feasible to remap the channels with BOME
I put this on a new thread. Please see the attached. You will notice in note mode, however I think it sends data to the APC MINI Input port,
I don’t think the LEDs react to same MIDI messages in note or drum mode so you might what to convert all incoming MIDI on the matrix notes (0-6) to MIDI CH6 to make them brightest.
