undefined method `change' for #<SurfaceMaster::Launchpad::Device:0x0055d7fd1e6178> (NoMethodError)

Hey there! I just gave your surface_master project a quick whirl but was unable to get the 'launchpad_playground' example working. I didn't spend an extensive amount of time on it but figure I'd shout out here.

The first issue was similar to thomasjachmann#7 in that the library isn't correctly detecting the launchpad mini. By changing the following line, it can be made compatible but obviously removes support for the MK2:

diff --git a/lib/surface_master/launchpad/device.rb b/lib/surface_master/launchpad/device.rb
index 31ad4c9..3136e3d 100644

         super(opts)
         reset! if output_enabled?
         raw         = (0..8)

The next error seemed to be more involved:

I notice that this 'change' method is not defined in either of the launchpad or touch_osc device classes. This is where is stopped debugging.

Hope this helps!

This was all code written in a sleep-deprived, fevered state (wedding prep). I suspect I got caught up mid-way through refactoring / redesigning things and never came back to it. As such the examples are probably pretty grossly out of date. You might try poking around in the git history to find a stable point to branch off from.

This commit is probably the root of your issue. So you could either update the launchpad playground to the new interface implied by this, or cut a branch of this commit's parent and go from there:
