Hi sorry for yet another request, haha i discovered that the KAOSS PAD is available as VST, and it’s so much fun. KAOSS PAD is a awesome effect plugin based on a X-Y-PAD With OSC Pilot in mind i thought this would work together like a charm. But **since i never used the OSC pilot XY Pad before, i didn’t know that it doesn’t have the most central function, necessary for KAOSS PAD usage: A Midi CC message which is sent when the OSC Pilot XY Pad is touched.** **Sadly, as of right now, the OSC Pilot XY Pads only send out Midi CC for the X, and a Midi CC for the Y. But with the awesome KAOSS PAD, one needs the third CC message “Pad touch”.** I tried double-assigning the X or Y to not only control X or Y of the Kaoss Pad, but also send values to the “Pad Touch” of the KaossPad, but sadly this doesn’t work, because “Pad Touch” needs a simple on127/off0 message (like a button) instead of a constant valuemovement (like x or y) it seems. The only way i can make it work is to create a Midi CC button next to the XY Pad in OSC Pilot, and press it the same time i use the XY Pad, but honestly that is no fun at all, haha ![kaoss](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/oscpilot/original/1X/80ec5cf2d51e479455f71d93abe851b4e537931b.jpeg) ---

~~You might find it as easy as placing the button in front of or behind the XY pad~~ Just tried this out and it doesn’t work. ---
