How to setup widget to jump to a Rackspace

[mat]

I have seen some videos to use next/previous rackspace command to do this stuff.
But my use case is different:
I have 3 rackspaces setup with different sounds. (the rackspace can be more than 3)
Then I am setting up 3 button widgets on the global rackspace to jump to each of the rackspace with the help of System Actions internal plugin on the global wiring.

When i click on String widget it should jump to the String Rackspace.
When i click on Pad widget it should jump to the Pad Rackspace.
When i click on Flute widget it should jump to the Flute Rackspace.
(It can randomly go in many order in the live session)

HOW CAN WE DO IT?

THANKS YOU

Does this help:

I have seen this article.
This too have mentions about next/previous option to change rackspace.
Another option they specified is via an external controller, which I don’t have.

Here is one solution that works and exercises new Gig Performer features.

Steps:

1. Create three rackspaces - String, Flute, Pad.
2. In the Global rackspace add a Streaming Audio File Player block and load a song.
3. Add three markers at random positions and name them accordingly.

4. For each marker, add the Switch to rackspace action and configure them to switch to the desired rackspace, e.g.

5. Add three widgets in the Global rackspace and put them in the same Radio Group.

6. Map them all to the ‘Trigger Marker Actions’ parameter of the Streaming Audio File Player.

7. Configure widgets scaling curves, so the scaling value is 0.0, 0.1, and 0.2 respectively.

That’s it.
(it’s easier than it looks )

Great am looking into this one now, but looks my project is crashing after putting the Streaming Audio File Player. This is the 2nd time while trying to set the scaled value, its freezing…
1st time i killed the process and reopened it

Please attach the crash log. How to post a crash log on Windows

I have seen that kind of screen before 3 or 4 times, and i have sent the crash report.
This time its not exiting the GP window and showing that dialog. Instead its in a freezed state, the loading cursor is going on for almost 2 minutes now.
Its happening when am setting the Scaled Value as per your instruction.

@mat

and i have sent the crash report.

Please attach it here.

The cursor is not getting captured on the screen shot.
The area in the red marking is the one i was trying to update.
Its still having the loading icon going on…

[mat]

I captured a picture of my screen (monitor) with my phone camera, you can see the loading cursor (marked in red circle)

[mat]

Attached the project here which is freezing…
test.zip (8.3 MB)

If GP is creating a log file somewhere which will be helpful in debugging I can put it here too if i can know how to get it.

The first widget can stay as is. (linear curve)
The second and the third widget should be as in my screenshot.

@npudar

0.0, 0.1, and 0.2

As per you 1st response the Scaled Value should be 0.0 , 0.1 , and 0.2 right?
So for Strings: 0.0, Flute: 0.1 and Pad: 0.2 right?

So now you telling me it should be:
Strings: 127, Flute: 0.2 and Pad: 0.2 ?

[mat]

String: 100

Multiple time am facing with this issue, any idea if its a bug or am doing something wrong?

Bug: Hitting Enter Key on Keyboard closing the view and going to another view

Am trying to edit the value in this textbox on the Global Rack. A small popup appears to enter the value and no option to save the value entered in the popup to the textbox on the parent textbox, so hitting ENTER key is the option I see. So I hit the ENTER button and it saves the value, but it closes the view and goes to [image] This is the view am going to after I hit the ENTER key on windows. [image] And now going back, requires me to press the PANEL button, then GLOBAL RACKSPACE button, …

[mat]

What is the best way to change the Scaled Value:
Is it by changing the Min value?

[mat]

@npudar

Pad

I set String and Flute, but Pad is not setting to 0.2, am not sure why.
Also thought to just test String and Flute by exiting the edit view.
When i pressed the String its freezing again…

This is the String settings in there (I had to exit and reopen to get this screen shot)

My Flute Settings:

Pad Settings:
(I tried to set Widget value to 0, but its automatically coming back like this. Also Scale Value is not changing…)

I created a new project and just did the Streaming Audio Player Stuff and this time it didn’t cause the project to crash. But the while setting the scaling value i occasionally faced the viewer getting closed and going to other place.
The old project had some of my testings am doing from yesterday onwards and may be something in it was causing it to interfere with Streaming Audio player.

Can you explain me little bit about the scaling stuff?
What is the difference between widget value and scaled value?
What is exactly doing the switching of racks, widget value or scaling value?

[mat]

I think setting the 3 widgets to Radio Group 1 is causing the freezing issue.
In the new project i forgot to put the widgets in the Radio Group 1 and i didn’t see any issue. Once i put that to the radio group 1, i started to see it freezing.
