Topic: Another useful VDJ 8 Sampler Button

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Stop all the VDJ 8 samples playing, as opposed to mute, which enables them to continue after muting.

Code
Button | sampler all stop

I should have collected these little scripts together. I'm not sure I'm putting things in the right place.
I wish I could do a big edit.

Does the bank location of the sample of interest has to be taken into account when playing a sample from script? (slot1, 2, 3 ... of bank X, Y, Z)
 

Interesting, in my case all my samples are specified by slot, and bank. However I think it would be trivial to set up a button with a specific sample. Once I figure out what my most important samples are, for karaoke that would be applause, I might assign specific buttons. My F1 is short of unused buttons, however I might move to an Akai Mini. Good idea!
 

I think you could just do a script the plays a sample by name, independent of the bank location.
That is something for the script guru's here to comment on though..
 

It doesn't need a Guru... LOL.
The three critical parts are play/stop, the name of the bank, and the name of the sample.
Then use the laws from the script wiki.
I'll do a generic later in the day, after I find somewhere to put my karaoke applause button!

Have a go at beating me to it!
 

To late MrJackson...

Button | sampler_bank X & sampler_play_stop Y
Button LED | sampler_play Y on

where X= the bank number or name.
and Y=the sample number or name.

All my singers get a round of applause!

Note: If you're on a different sample page the normal slot volume control won't work, and hence you need to provide a master sampler volume control. Two buttons (one up, the other down), or one knob will do the trick.

I'd recommend freeing up a knob on you're sampler controller for the master volume.

I was too busy working with my PA :)

Nice script bigron!
I wonder if it's possible to step through the banks of samples (+1 and -1) just like you change bank with the mouse?

 

sampler_bank +1
 

It looks so easy when you see the answer :)
I nearly had the answer in the question , thanx as always locodog
