Adding Midi Helper commands with script

[keytarman]

I need to add the same 3 Midi commands to every song. Is this something that can be done with Scripting?

[pianopaul]

To every Song or from every song?

[keytarman]

On 2nd thought - It would probably take as long to write the script (if it would work)
as it would take to add them in manually.

never mind…

[pianopaul]

Should that be sent every time when the 1st Songpart of each song is activated?

I guess you’re suggesting a song script that would just send those CC messages out, right?

[pianopaul]

Can you read minds?

[keytarman]

Yes! That sounds like it would do the same thing. I’ll see how far I can get with the Script Helper…78^)

THANKS!!

Try this gig script

// Called when you switch to another songpart
var v_MIDIDevice : String = "IAC-Treiber IAC-Bus 1"
    c1 : MidiMessage
    c2 : MidiMessage
    c3 : MidiMessage
initialization
 c1 = MakeControlChangeMessageEx(53, 127, 1)
 c2 = MakeControlChangeMessageEx(55,   0, 1)
 c3 = MakeControlChangeMessageEx(54, 127, 1)
end

On Songpart(oldSongpartIndex : integer, newSongpartIndex : integer)
 if newSongpartIndex == 0 then
    SendNowToMidiOutDevice(v_MIDIDevice, c1)
    SendNowToMidiOutDevice(v_MIDIDevice, c2)
    SendNowToMidiOutDevice(v_MIDIDevice, c3)
 end   
End

You have to give the correct String to the variable v_MIDIDevice, it is shown in the MIDI Ports section of the Options Window
