MIDI Button to Control Play & Metronome Button

DCFanatic · August 20, 2020, 3:11pm

Hello!

Does anyone know if it possible to use a button on a MIDI controller to operate the “Play” and “Metronome” Buttons in GigPerformer. I would like to be able to start and stop the metronome from my keyboard at the start of a song to give our drummer a feel for the tempo, but I don’t want it to run the whole song. Triggering the Metronome to Start/Stop from my keyboard would be a lot easier than using my Laptop.

Thanks!

Hi @DCFanatic,

the global play can be MIDI mapped in the Global MIDI Options

…And with a Widget which you can learn from your controller and little scripting you can enable/disable the Metronome

Used Script:

Var METRONOME : Widget
 
on WidgetValueChanged (newValue : double) from METRONOME
  EnableMetronome(newValue == 1.0)
end
