What MIDI notes are used for the 8x8 pad grid?

The 8x8 pad grid uses MIDI notes 0 through 63, organized from the bottom-left corner starting at note 0.

What are the CC numbers for the faders?

The faders 1-8 correspond to CC48 through CC55, and the Master Fader is mapped to CC56.

Can I control the colors of the Track and Scene buttons?

Track buttons (bottom) only support Red LEDs, while Scene buttons (right side) only support Green LEDs, both with On, Off, and Blink states.

How do I convert a pad's (X, Y) coordinate to a MIDI note?

You can use the formula 'y * 8 + x' for 0-indexed coordinates, or use the TypeScript helper functions provided by the skill.

Does this guide support the RGB pad features?

Yes, it identifies the 8x8 grid as RGB-capable with support for the 128-color palette and custom RGB values.
