Tópico: Mapping Effects w/ FX knob (Hercules 4-mx)

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

hey, i just figured out how to put my downloaded effects in virtual DJ 7. now i want to reassign them to different buttons. mostly 7-12 but i dont know how to set them with the FX knob. i want to be able to use them like the factory flanger that cames with VDJ.

ex. (click button 12 = flanger. then it colors up on my 4-mx and in vdj and i can control the parameters with the fx knob. click button off, parameter goes off)

also for some of the effects i need the second parameter. can you give me that too.

lastly. is it possible to change the sync button into another shift button and make more slots for effects and such

Alright I'll help you, but only if you promise not to use too many effects in the mix, it sounds terrible if you use them too much LOL! if you want to do that you just need to script for the activation buttons

effect "effect_name" active

eg. effect "reverb" active, just make sure you call it the effects full name not the short one

for the effect parameter knobs you just need:

for an absolute knob: deck 1 effect slider 1
for an endless encoder: param_greater 0% ? deck 1 effect slider 1 +1 : deck 1 effect slider 1 -1

*note you can change the effect slider number to whatever you require, or you can specify an effect the knob exclusively controls
eg. effect slider 2
eg. effect 'reverb' slider 4

for a shift button if you just require one shift I would recommend using

toggle 'my_var' (you can change the word my_var to anything that is meaningful to you) this will make it change between active and non active.

Once all that is set up you will need to following code for anything you want to have a shift for:

var_equal 'my_var' ? do shift action : do normal action

? - means (if true)
: - means (if false, or)"not sure if that is the real meaning but if works for me..."

as an example for a button:

var_equal 'sync_shift' ? effect 'filter' active : eq_kill_low


If you want to use say an eq knob (must be an endless encoder) but use it for an effect slider you can string the commands together as follows

var_equal 'sync_shift' ? param_greater 0% ? deck 1 effect slider 1 +1 : deck 1 effect slider 1 -1 : param_greater 0% ? deck 1 eq_low +1 : deck 1 eq_low -1

Unfortunately I know nothing about leds so you will need to get some help from someone else in that area.

Good Luck
