Feedback about DAW states

Hello! Recently picked up my first 3 modules to replace MIDI controllers with my DAW, but I have a question: can the modules change color based on the state of something inside the DAW?

For example, I have TouchOSC on my iPad and my Midi Fighter Twister setup in Reaper with CSI such that if I hit the Solo button on either surface it’ll Solo the track in Reaper, and if I hit Solo inside the DAW, then it’ll change the state of the Solo button (turn it on/LED comes on) on both surfaces. That’s what I’m hoping to accomplish with the Intech modules (if possible)

Yes, you will need to set up midirx. There are some examples in the profile cloud.

I saw that, but wasn’t sure…Does that mean that Reaper sends MIDI out when the state of parameters change?

I actually figured it all out, thank you! Even with the profiles in the cloud I couldn’t get stuff to work right. One of the issues is that not all the mute actions in Reaper report state, so I had to make sure I was using the right one. And since I’m doing this on the Tek2 the LEDs didn’t behave in an expected way. For example, button 1 is element 0 so I would’ve expected led_value(0, 1, val) to change it’s LED but it didn’t. It was actually element 10 (0-4 for the first 5 bubbles on 1st jogwheel and 5-9 for the 2nd). But it’s all working now!
