Hi folks. I have just recently upgraded from QuickShow to Beyond Advanced so that I can utilize PangoScript. I am making some progress but having some trouble figuring some things out.
Initially I will not be selecting individual cue's. I will be selecting pages and turning VLJ on and off. Later I will get more involved with my programming.
That said, here is what I want to be able to do. I am using a midi controller that has no template so I am creating it from scratch (AKAI MPD226):
1. Hit a pad and go to a specific page. I have the button working to go to the page but I can't figure out how to set the pad to a color that stays on.
2. When I hit another pad to go to a different page, I want the color from the first pad to go out and the color for the new pad to light and stay on.
3. There are a few cues that I want to be able to trigger any time. So I want to be able to:
a. Select Page (I know how to do this)
b. Select Cue (I think I know how to do this)
c. Start the cue playing (which would also light the associated pad)
d. When I hit the pad a second time the cue would stop playing and the light on the pad would go out.
I would be eternally grateful if someone could teach me how to do these few things. I have reconfigured my whole DJ setup to use midi controllers for almost everything and I am trying to get the Beyond stuff set up by Saturday so I won't need an extra monitor to run it. If someone good with PangoScript would be willing to work with me, I would even be willing to pay something for your time and effort. Once I see how a couple of these things are done, I can then pick up and go through all the iterations of the same thing that will be needed.
If you want to reach me outside of the forum as well, please feel free to give me a call at 925-586-8571. I am in northern California in the Pacific time zone.
I hope someone will have the ability and time to jump in and help me.
Thanks in advance,
Rob
