Love SWAM sax, but have an issue where the “Expression” parameter on the Sax instrument gets reset to the middle low end somewhere (I want it always fully up/open) when the Rackspace/song loads. This happens whether I have anything mapped to it or not, whether I filter out expression control or not, and regardless of where the setting is set and saved in the instrument itself. In fact - the instrument even shows it fully up, but it isn’t! I have to do something to push it back up every time. I have tried mapping a widget (button) to it which works to turn it on/off (up or down) and have it default to 100 (all the way up) and even “reset on rackspace activation” - but no luck. I have to go to the rackspace and then use pedal, button, or mouse in the instrument itself to “wiggle” it just a bit to get it to be on fully. Any ideas? This is Tenor Sax 3 if that makes any difference. This has bit me several times live now and I need to fix it!
Use a script to set the value of the mapped widget and then to a different value.
Seems swam reacts on some incoming movement ofbthe expression to check of a used controller is working.
I haven’t done any scripting yet, so I guess maybe now would be a good time to start. I’m assuming there’s a reference manual and some samples somewhere. I guess I’ll start looking.
Please upload a rackspace with SWAM.
A script like this helps
//$<AutoDeclare>
// DO NOT EDIT THIS SECTION MANUALLY
Var
KNOB : Widget
//$</AutoDeclare>
// Called when rackspace is activated
On Activate
KNOB.SetWidgetValue(KNOB.GetWidgetValue()+0.01)
KNOB.SetWidgetValue(KNOB.GetWidgetValue()-0.01)
End
And here some documentation for scripting
