Tópico: Calling a variable for relative song_pos adjustment...

Este tópico es antiguo y puede contener información incorrecta para la nueva versión.

It's been a while since I've scripted and i can't remember the syntax to plug a variable directly into a verb. I want to plug '$4thnoteadj' into a relative son_pos action. So song_pos +{the variable} Thanks, and I hope everyone is safe and healthy

get_var '$4thnoteadj' & param_cast 'relative' & song_pos
 
Ahh, I tried casting the param, and only got absolute position, didnt remember the relative modifier. Thank you good sir.
 
deck left select ? deck right get_bpm & param_multiply 1.667 & set '$4thnoteadj' & goto_cue & get_var '$4thnoteadj' & param_cast 'relative' & deck left song_pos

deck left select ? deck right get_bpm & param_multiply 1.667 & param_cast 'ms' & set '$4thnoteadj' & deck left goto_cue & get_var '$4thnoteadj' & param_cast 'relative' & deck left song_pos


it's still going to the absolute position... Do I need to specify that the parameter is a 'ms' call as well as relative? if so how do I specify both in the same cast?
 
song_pos is a percent 0.0 - 1.0, maybe you want
goto
 
I'm basically trying to activate a hotcue, and then apply a time offset in milliseconds based on the quarter note value of the opposing deck's bpm immediately after. So when the button is pressed it will immediately jump the track to X amount of milliseconds past the selected hotcue position. If goto will accept relative value in MS then that's what I need.
 
it does, cast 'ms' then cast 'relative' to goto
 
Got it, casting to a cast was what I was missing.

deck left select ? deck right get_bpm & param_multiply 1.667 & param_cast & set '$4thnoteadj' & deck left goto_cue & get_var '$4thnoteadj' & param_cast 'ms' & param_cast 'relative' & deck left goto : deck left get_bpm & param_multiply 1.667 & param_cast & set '$4thnoteadj' & deck right goto_cue & get_var '$4thnoteadj' & param_cast 'ms' & param_cast 'relative' & deck right goto

Works perfectly, Thanks Loco! Now to plug it into the whole thing and see if it all works...
 
I think you could cut it to this

deck left select ? deck right set '$4thnoteadj' `get_bpm & param_multiply 1.667` & deck left goto_cue & get_var '$4thnoteadj' & param_cast 'ms' & param_cast 'relative' & deck left goto : deck left set '$4thnoteadj' `get_bpm & param_multiply 1.667` & deck right goto_cue & get_var '$4thnoteadj' & param_cast 'ms' & param_cast 'relative' & deck right goto

not much of a cut, but still a cut
 
a short alternative deck related (pad like) applies to the deck the button belongs to

goto_cue & get_text `leftdeck ? deck right get_bpm : deck left get_bpm` & param_cast 'ms' & param_multiply 1.667 & param_cast 'relative' & goto

activates a hotcue, and then apply a time offset in milliseconds based on the quarter note value of the opposite deck's bpm immediately after

I like it, it's cleaner, and as quickly and consistently as this has to respond to make it work every verb that can be eliminated helps. TY again Loco.

Does the get_text `leftdeck query only return true if the left deck is the action deck?
 
the get_text `leftdeck ..` query returns the calculated bpm of the opposite deck ,
so you are right, leftdeck query returns true when left deck is action_deck
 
Nic', You taught me something, TY. That's got all sorts of useful applications, nice shortcut!

Tidy technique there, +1 :)
