Topic: Pad activeted/deactivated 2 different actions
JirSimPRO InfinityMember since 2021
Hi, I would like to ask for something. I would like to configure the pads in following way:

IF - PAD IS NOT - ACTIVATED - DO - ACTION1 (FX1)
IF - PAD IS_____ - ACTIVATED - DO - ACTION2 (FX2)

Do you know please, how to do it?

Thank you very much.


(I tried it already, but it did not work right by me... pad? ... ...)

what do you mean by 'pad is activated'?
a pad by itself is not activated or not, just pressed or not.

Pad lighs - active

I have a idea to make FADE-IN and FADE-OUT effects.

Press pad for first time - FADE-IN effect
Press pad for second time - FADE-OUT effect

Pad is inactive, I press Pad, Pad activates FADE-IN effect and Pad is active ...
Pad is active, I press Pad, Pad activates FADE-OUT effect and Pad is inactive ...

The pads lighting is based on something, a pad does not light by itself.

I'm guessing you could use the activation of the effect in this case
effect_active 1 ? script to fade out and disable effect : script to fade in and enabled effect

I mean Sw pad (not hw pad on the controller). Something similar to Stems pad page.
Stem i.e. Vocal active/inactive ...

When pad inactive is - Fade-IN fx. When pad active ist - FADE-OUT fx ...

HW pads follow what SW pads do.
However you can do this:
Script a custom button as toggle '$MySFXVar'
Now script a button like this: var '$MySFXVar' ? FADE-IN : FADE-OUT
Of course you need to change "FADE-IN" and "FADE-OUT" with actual VirtualDJ script actions.

Once you get started on how this works, you can later transfer it to pads
