I add to the ‘flag’ setting in my MPD32 Generic Remote definition file an 8 value, as I supposed that this is the correct value for the Soft takeover to be active. It doesn’t work - stating this, I mean that using the involved knob leads to the same behavior as if the flag 4th bit value was not set.
Soft takeover works for me when I set the value to 9. did you get any feedback from Steinberg (since you opened a ticket)?
