Tópico: Controller Reflect a Skin...... - Page: 1

Esta parte del tópico es antigua y puede contener información incorrecta para la nueva versión.

Ok so I got my hands on a Hercules RMX and have been using this skin, http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/9526/RMX_Style.html . Here's my question, the skin itself has panels, now when I switch panels I want the buttons on the RMX to reflect what's on the skin. Basically the buttons would have several different functions depending on what panel you were on................can this even be done??

Thanks for the time and info

You can control the panels of a skin using a controler, but i dont think that the oposite is possible or even useful.
 
I think your misunderstanding me, not useful??? How is not having the buttons on the rmx act the same way as what's on the screen?? Wouldn't it be almost the same as what you told me yesterday with switching the controls on a 2 deck controller so I can use 4 decks................wouldn't that be the same principal??

Huey
 
What about an example?
 
Ok in this first picture the "first" green button says "Loop In",



Ok now in this next pick I have hit the panel button on the screen that shows the next 6 buttons. In this picture the "first " green button says "Sampler Rec".



Now basiclly what I'm asking for is,

"Is there a way that when I hit my keyboard shortcut to show the panel I want (in this case its buttons) it also changes my buttons to match the screen??"

As of right now when I switch panels the buttons still act the same way as the first picture.................I hope that makes sense.

Thanks for your time DJDAD it does mean alot!!
Huey

PS sorry for the tiny pics, lol!! Not sure what happened there.........
 
OK heres some better pics,

In the first 1 what it says in the green is how the buttons (1-6) react,



Now in this picture,



I\'ve hit the panel button and now it shows buttons 7-12, but when I hit the corresponding button it still has the action of the buttons 1-6 which is what I want to change. And I since when you hit the panel button it changes on both sides I like all 12 buttons to do the same basiclly giving me 24 buttons total.

Hope that makes sense

Hmmm..................
 
"Beat" were the *%# you get that Rmx pic? ha,ha thats slamming Dog!! yeap!
 
Its this one, http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/9526/RMX_Style.html . I was hoping I could do what I want to do with the buttons but it's looking like it cant happen..................I dont know. This RMX isnt to bad I guess still might just keep it. If I can make the skin and the buttons act in sync I'll probly keep it. The volume is a little lower then my Ecler well alot lower but the sound is clean so thats good. Still havent ran it with timecodes yet. Kinda waitin on an answer to this button thing. Theres gotta be a way to make it happen.................

P.S. My phones dead
 
I'm not familiar with the RMX. I see at the RMX mapper that those buttons are mapped as djc_button 1 ..6. the same name i see on the skin. So i guess that it would work.
I dont know Huey, maybe an RMX user might help you more....
 
Thanks bro!! I'll pm some other people.

Thanks for the time

I just noticed that the second panel is for djc_buttons 7..12 where of course you can assign 6 more different actions.
Ok your problem is that you want those 6 more actions on you RMX, according to the skin panel selection?

Here is what i propose.

Use a button on the RMX to toggle between a var and at the same time toggle those 2 skin panels
Then assign 2 different actions for DjC buttons according to that value

for RMX buttons...
var "toggle" ? djc_button 1 : djc_button 7

Dont use the skin to control the RMX, use the RMX to control the skin.
 
now i undarstand whats going on..true what DjDad says,the RMX tends to have its own behaviour with those effects buttons,
"unatached" to effects activated via the skin...so u need to activate from the RMX..now back to work! ( I meant me..he,he) you can do it huey...

OK this is the part I dont understand..............How do I make a button toggle?? I have no clue what to type in. And after typing in this code, "var "toggle" ? djc_button 1 : djc_button 7" now the button works on the 2nd skin panel but not on the first which I'm sure has something to do with this "Toggle" command??

Huey
 
Well
'skin_panel "DJC_slot_1_6" & skin_panel "DJC_slot_7_12" doesnt toggle,
niether does
'toggle 'skin_panel "DJC_slot_1_6" & skin_panel "DJC_slot_7_12"

I cant even find examples of "Panels" being toggled, its all timecodes and effects..........................
Any other ideas??

UGHHHHH...............
Huey
 
 
or from the bottom of the scripts list
djc_button : 'djc_button 1', 'djc_button 2' , ..., 'djc_button 12'

djc_button_popup : 'djc_button_popup 6' selects the plugins on the 6th DJC buttons. (For the skin, use format="%djc_button6")

djc_button_select : 'djc_button_select', ' djc_button_select "deckA" ', ' djc_button_select "deckB" '

djc_button_slider :

djc_panel :




 
OK heres the code to switch between panels,
skin_panel "DJC_slot_1_6" on ? skin_panel "DJC_slot_7_12" on : skin_panel "DJC_slot_1_6" on

Now what is this "my_var" "var" and "toggle" stuff?? The wiki doesnt help me 1 bit, because I dont understand what its saying to begin with
Someone, anyone

Huey
 
Huey,
assign this to an RMX button
var_equal "togl" 1 ? set var "togl" 0 & skin_panel "DJC_slot_1_6" on : set var "togl" 1 & skin_panel "DJC_slot_7_12" on

and assign your RMX buttons 1..6 like this
button1 ... action
var_equal "togl" 0 ? djc_button 1 : djc_button 7
 
var_equal "togl" 1 ? set var "togl" 0 & skin_panel "DJC_slot_1_6" on : set var "togl" 1 & skin_panel "DJC_slot_7_12" on

Gives me an error,
