A maybe better script for the button may be:
deck right effect_active 'reverb' ? effect_stems 'vocal' off & effect_active 'reverb' off : effect_stems 'vocal' on & effect_active 'reverb' on

I used to have this: deck right effect_active 'reverb' ? blink 300ms ? color 'magenta' : off : color 'darkmagenta' now it doesn't work.

And your above script for the LED will work as posted.

How to add strings [append a tag example]

set_var string " text I want to add" & 
set temp `param_add 'get_var string' 'get_browsed_song comment'` &
get_var temp & param_cast 'text' & browsed_song "comment"


quick one, save the text I want to add,
set a temp var, adding the thing I want to add to the thing I want to add to
grab the var, cast it as text, cast it to the thing I want to change

or even briefer
set_var string " text I want to add" & 
get_text "`param_add 'get_var string' 'get_browsed_song comment'`" &
param_cast & browsed_song comment


even briefer still, and in the order that doesn't hurt my primitive brain
set_var string " text I want to add" & 
get_text "`browsed_song comment``get_var string`" &
param_cast & browsed_song comment


Love the scripting, and cannot get the 3rd script to append, instead it replaces, current comment with the " text I want to add".

Its the get_text "`browsed_song comment``get_var string`" that is not behaving.

Has something changed since the original post that broke it?

yep just figured it out ... was going to post ..

Thanks Locodog !

Love all your clever ideas !

Maybe even shorter version:
get_text "`get_browsed_song comment``get_text ' text I want to add'`" & 
param_cast & browsed_song comment

saves setting a var.

yeah thought of that, but wanted to include the idea "grabbed data" if you're wanting to do something like this with script then likely it will be dynamic strings.

Also it would be shorter than what you wrote :P
get_text "`get_browsed_song comment` text I want to add" & param_cast & browsed_song comment

Hello Everyone, I am in need of help. I have been playing with variables, and scripts, and I can't figure this out. I need a script for VDJ (Most current version), and my RANE ONE. I would like to reprogram my "TAP" Button to do this.
FX_TAP
When Pressed > Crossfader Curve Fast & Crossfader Hamster, & Key Lock Off & Blink Active
When Pressed again > Crossfader Curve 50%, Crossfader Disable, & Key Lock On

This is what I have now. It works, but not as I want it.
key_lock & crossfader_disable & crossfader_curve "scratch" ? blink : on

crossfader_disable ? crossfader_hamster on & key_lock off & crossfader_disable off : key_lock on & crossfader_disable on

something like that?

I will try it out and see if it works. Thank you so much.

hello guys, how to write a script so that after the cue point every 500ms, the volume of the vocal decreases gradually every 500ms and stops at 10%

all i could think of was: stem 'vocal' 500ms 10%
but it doesn't work.

you need to call a repeat_start, that rs will be querying param_smaller `stem vocal` 10% ? if 10% is smaller reduce the stem some : if 10% isn't smaller then we got to where we need to be and we can repeat_stop

Should be enough there for you to go on. I've told you pretty much everything without giving you the full script, repeat_start scripts I've covered.
 

Posted Mon 13 Mar 23 @ 10:01 pm
Oh, LOKODOG, it's hard for me. This is what I was able to write after reading your answer: repeat_start? param_smaller `stem vocal` 10% ? 500ms : Repeat_stop
But this, of course, is nonsense.
if possible, then write me a full script, if there is no time, then I will not be offended.

goal : when the track is playing and gets to the cue point, then the stem vocal for 4 seconds is slowly removed to 10%

It's hard for everybody until they practice, you almost had it, go to the first post of this thread, there you will find an index for topics I've covered.
Read the post called "repeat_start, repeat_stop" it is linked.

I didn't write all these pages for myself, I wrote them for people to learn, and I've become bored of repeating myself.

hi at all; is there a script in Vdj verbs list to lock all deck functions about deck 1 and deck 3 (or deck 2 and 4 in rightdeck)…..like “dual deck function” in Pioneer controller….thanks!

First off apologies if I have asked this question before.
I know for custom buttons if you use `<script>` in the button name, it can be dynamic to represent a value, but can this be done in the skin for normal buttons.
I am trying to modify my skin to add a button that will cycle through the stem types, in my custom button i can use a button name of `setting 'stemsRealtimeSeparation'` to display what the current stem setting is but wondered if actual skin buttons can do the same. I've looked at the 'button' page of the wiki & can't see anything to indicate it can but thought I would ask.

I know I could create a custom button wherever i want on my skin but didn't want to litter my skin with custom buttons & keep track of how many I had, so I am just curious if there is a neater solution.

HI
Please ignore my previous post, as I was typing it out an idea started to form & when I went back to the WiKi to double check my post was correct I noticed the action="" tag as a child of "text", which does what I want it to do so thanks anyway.

I wish there was a word for that, "when composing a message to ask for help an idea strikes", because it is a thing

Yes it happens to me a lot & sometimes I even get to the answer before pressing 'Save' on the message which is great & saves some time for everyone.

Follow up question if that is ok, is there a way to mix static text & a query in the button text
My button currently has the following text child
<text fontsize="10" weight="bold" align="center" action="setting 'stemsRealtimeSeparation'"/>

But it would be great if I could precede the setting value with what the setting is e.g. "STEMS Always" rather than just "Always".
