Shall we try and walk through one option?
Pick a button of the APC40MK II and we will program it the way you want. I understand that the new shortcut system could be a bit daunting.

Shamai, you need to set a different color for each of the states so make sure you've got the right state selected before you make your color choice.

For instance, if you're dealing with a clip, you'll get the following choices:

so if you want to customize your mapping you'd need to choose 1 color (velocity) per state.

Are you expecting your clips to change colors?
