Done but it isn't easy to understand and to do.
Now I've a port merging the Midi In's and a port sending Midi to both Controllers.
But this doesn't make sense if Controller 1 uses the same commands as Controller 2.
I've seen that it's possible to create your own template for Launch Control
Please tell me:
Am I right that Midi-Ox and LoopMidi has to be started with Sweetlight?
How can I start the stored profile automatically?

Put the ports created by Loop MIDI in Windows Start menu... You want them to start automatically before starting up MIDI OX >SX I usually minimalize them after start up... Easy for Me... Hard for you?

[MTF Showtechnic]

Yes, it isn't easy and I think you have the impression that I'm a complete Idiot
I'm not that kind of Computer Fraggle. They have to run that's it.
For all other questions I'm gonna call my IT-Specialist.
Don't know why the button's etc. can't be triggered by DMX instead of that sh... Midi.
DMX is VERY EASY for me. I can send and receive and built my own Controller.
There are DMX Mergers - ready made Controllers with Buttons and Faders...
Non of them - it's Midi
A lot of Software running - a lot of Software that can crash!
But you haven't answered my question:
How can I start the stored profile from OX automatically. It's an INI File.
Software in Autostart - but the Profile?

[Earl Harvey]

First... I don't think your an idiot...
I've been using MIDI for over 30 years so don't assume I'm an Idiot either...
Second... What has taken you two hours...,took me months to figure out... No it wasn't easy...

I'm ok... Your ok!

In Windows menu under programs you will find the Startup folder, Drag Loop MIDI Icon into Startup folder... Port(s) should already be saved if you named them when creating them... Hope this helps!

In MIDI OX save Profile under file... I've never had to save the profile because MIDI OX recognizes devices if they are pluged in before booting up computer...

Loopmidi linked to Autostart - logical and done before your reply.
OX also linked to AS.
I'm very astonished that it starts with my stored *.ini file (Profile)
OK if it's working - nobody asks - The Essential: it's running
Thanks for the help

But please - my friends from support - give us a DMX In and Out to trigger the Button's.
And a possibility to Start/Stop the Timeline (Space Button from Keyboard) because there's a little problem:
If you hit and hold the Space Button the Timeline starts and will stop after exactly 0.4sec.
After releasing the button it will continue running or don't. This belongs to the Start/Stop Button on Top of Window.
If you hold Space Button it alters very quick from Start to Stop to Start.....
Same mistake when you trigger the scenes by the keyboard. Pressing and holding a button alters the scene permanent to On/Off.
Not realy nice.
