X-Touch Mini
New Mackie Mode
Since release 0.9.21.1 SPAD.neXt uses the Mackie-Mode for the X-Touch Mini which gives full control over led's and buttons.
For a guide how to use this new feature see the video section.
SPAD.neXt will attempt to switch the X-Touch Mini into Mackie-Mode automatically, however this might fail. Specially if you are in W11 24H2 Update, which has a known issue with Midi/audio devices.
Switching did not work if:
- the Layer A led is on and the MC mode led above it is off
- Button presses are not recognized by SPAD.neXt
First, unplug and reconnect the X-Touch. Then restart SPAD.neXt and check whether the device switches automatically. If it does, the issue is resolved for now, but you may need to reconnect the device occasionally because of this Windows 11 24H2 bug. (As of January 12, 2025, a fix was in preview at Microsoft and was expected in a future Patch Tuesday update.)
If that did not fix it, the X-Touch Mini need to be switched into Mackie-Mode manually:
-
Exit SPAD.neXt
-
Download (if not already present) https://mediadl.musictribe.com/download/software/behringer/X-TOUCH/X-TOUCH-EDITORv1.21.zip
-

An ui like this should appear
-

The Layer led should go off and the MC MODE led above it should go on.
-
Close the x-touch editor
-
Start SPAD.neXt.
-
All Buttons should be working now.
