Topic: Pioneer DDJ-FLX6 Beat FX ON/OFF Button Not Flashing
It’s my expectation that when the blue Beat FX on/off button is pressed, it will flash to indicate the effect is active.

This is true when CH SELECT has channel 1 or 2 selected, for example. But no flashing occurs when CH SELECT is set to MST.

To be clear, the effect is still active even though the button is not flashing.

Is there something I’m doing wrong? Or is there something I need to map for this button to behave on MST the same way it does on CH 1 and 2?

I have the same issue but mine only flashes when an effect is active on channel 4 (Deck D). Any chance of a fix please?
 

So, you have the FX SEL to MST, press the FX ON button and doesnt flash ?
In the MASTER Mixer panel of the VirtualDJ skin, dont you get the FX turning on/off ?
Which FX is selected for MST ?
 

I've come up with a fix by editing the mapping as per this example (for effect slot 1):

var_equal '$FLX6_FXCH1' 1 ? deck 1 effect_active 1 blink : var_equal '$FLX6_FXCH2' 1 ? deck 2 effect_active 1 blink : var_equal '$FLX6_FXCH3' 1 ? deck 3 effect_active 1 blink : var_equal '$FLX6_FXCH4' 1 ? deck 4 effect_active 1 blink : var_equal '$FLX6_FXCHM' 1 ? deck master effect_active 1 blink

You'll need to remap the effects on/off button 6 times, with each of the 6 effect slots selected. In essence you just have to add the word "blink" and a space before each colon in the script, and repeat the process a further 5 times.

It blinks at a slightly different speed than the Pioneer default but it works!
