very good info, I apreciate it.
Actually in my case in particular is not an LED, but rather a button (SHIFT+LOAD), quick background info:
Pioneer DDJ-Ergo with hardware controlled SHIFT button.
I would like to map (SHIFT+LOAD) as a DECK UNLOAD and other few key combinations, however I can't seem to be able to find that combination in the MAPPERS KEY dropbox, which most likely means the VDJ team left it out of the definition file maybe simply because Pioneer did not assign a VDJ command to it from factory. I know there is a MIDI code associated with SHIFT+LOAD because I can see it in the controller's manual. This is why I asked if it was possible to use the syntax from above to associate a few buttons directly with MIDI codes. The only other solution I see is to rewrite the entire definition file to include the extra key combinations I need but given that it cannot be exported from the installation of VDJ, it would a PITA and a whole lot of typing.
From above, SIMPLE MIDI code:
<map value="DECK_PLAY" action="play_pause" />
<map value="96-66dd" action="smart_play" /> <-- shift DECK_PLAY
<map value="DECK_LOAD" action="load" />
<map value="0-CC67" action="unload" /> <-- shift DECK_LOAD

I could suggest you a quick work-around for the unload command:
<map value="DECK_LOAD" action="holding ? unload : load" />
<map value="DECK_LOAD" action="holding ? unload : load" />
