Can we please get a single knob cut plugin??

The one we have now basically requires 2 hands to operate!!

We asked Scott many many times if this could be changed but he never did.

It kind of already exists if you use the cut color fx (on the filter knob)

Ok cool, I’ll try it.

Could you tell me the script to add it to a button on my controller, please??

depends what you want, how many buttons you got going spare...
effect_colorfx 'cut'
effect_colorfx 'filter'

effect_colorfx 'cut' ? effect_colorfx 'filter' : effect_colorfx 'cut'

So I'd like it mapped the CRUSH button on the DDJ RX.

I tried it but lost the filter and Pitch. Maybe you could take a look at the mapping and see what I did wrong??

An odd mapping on the RX, looks like it isn't upto date with colorfx
I'd do this
for the colorfx mapping
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : filter

colorfxCrush
filter_selectcolorfx 'cut' ? filter_selectcolorfx 'distortion' : filter_selectcolorfx 'cut'
colorfxFilter
filter_selectcolorfx 'filter' ? filter_selectcolorfx 'loop roll' : filter_selectcolorfx 'filter'
colorfxNoise
filter_selectcolorfx 'noise' ? filter_selectcolorfx 'mobius' : filter_selectcolorfx 'noise'
colorfxPitch
filter_selectcolorfx 'pitch' ? filter_selectcolorfx 'spiral' : filter_selectcolorfx 'pitch'
effect_select colorfx 'cut'

Led mappings might need a tweek,
if shift + button gives you a new mapping entry you could have another 8,

None of that works...

I lose everything.

You did the dial as well as the buttons?
 

Posted Sat 14 Sep 19 @ 4:22 am
Ok that worked but even if I don't have a color button pressed if I turn my color knob it activates an fx.

I don't want it to do anything unless i press a button.

pick the filter in that case
 

Posted Sat 14 Sep 19 @ 4:32 am
I’m not following you??

So right now, when I press the color filter button and turn the color knob the filter is what I hear.

But when I hit the color filter button off and turn the color knob it is controlling the filter roll.

And so on and so on with the other buttons.

centre the dial to turn it off
 

Posted Sat 14 Sep 19 @ 4:46 am
Yeah I get that but I don’t want them to do anything when the button is pressed off.

Basically I don’t want that secondary function.

Ok so I’m assuming I change it to this,

filter_selectcolorfx 'cut' ? Nothing : filter_selectcolorfx 'cut'

filter is default, you want a dial ready to do nothing?

*Edit* no need to query
filter_selectcolorfx 'cut'

I’m uploading a video to show what is happening.

Posted Sat 14 Sep 19 @ 5:12 am
ok the part in the BOLDis screwing everything up!!

filter_selectcolorfx 'cut' ? filter_selectcolorfx 'distortion' : filter_selectcolorfx 'cut'

What does that need to be so nothing will happen unless the button is pushed?!?!
 

Posted Sat 14 Sep 19 @ 11:37 am
Any solutions??

I didn't see COLORFX_ON, my first look, what a janky way to do things...[colorfx dial that doesn't actually do colorfx] [5 buttons and 1 dial results in 4 solo fx]
No discredit to atomix mapping, it must be SW copying a pioneer HW limitation.
having each button toggle each color would have been a bit more interesting but pioneer will get there by the rx mk6

dial, COLORFX
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : var_equal '$CFX' 1 ? effect_slider 'noise' 1 : var_equal '$CFX' 2 ? effect_slider 'cut' 2 : var_equal '$CFX' 3 ? key : var_equal '$CFX' 4 ? filter : nothing

button, COLORFX_ON
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : var_equal '$CFX' 1 ? down ? effect_activate 'noise' on : effect_activate 'noise' off : var_equal '$CFX' 2 ? down ? effect_active 'cut' on : effect_acive 'cut' off : var_equal '$CFX' 3 ? down ? nothing : key 0.5 : var_equal '$CFX' 4 ? down ? filter_activate on : filter_activate off : nothing

the other buttons back to default

Ok I did what you said but when I press the Sound Color FX button thats labeled "CRUSH" it doesn't activate the "CUT" color fx

Heres the mapping for that button

var_equal '$CFX' 2 ? set '$CFX' 0 : set '$CFX' 2
