Topic: Transition "Banks"

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Is it possible, i would imagine it is to have a plug in for transition banks. like how there's a sampler bank plug in. i would like to group certain types of transitions together for live mixing. i am of course talking about VIDEO transitions.

CAN IT BE DONE?!

Thats what I thought. Creating a group manager for them is very easy but given they are already listed on the skin, on the effects tab and are selectable by VDJScript I'm not sure I see why it's needed?

thats exactly what i meant. i have them scripted for keyboard short cuts and for my nano pad but i feel i could use them better if grouped and lets say a button to switch all 12 at a time etc like you can with the sample manager.

You could already create groups and switch them with VDJScript...

Ya can you explain a little more cause im curious as how to do aswell. I tried it the way you would do it with samples but that didn't work.......


Thanks for your time

It's not explicitly explained anywhere, but basically set key(s) to change a VDJScript variable (explicit value, cycle, inc/dec whatever) then compare against that you can use it to achieve banks.

For example, map a key to 'cycle "transitionbank" 2'. With each press the variable transisitionbank will from 0, to 1, to 2, then repeat.

Then map a key to something like:

var_equal "transitionbank" 0 ? video_transition_select "Cut" : var_equal "transitionbank" 1 ? video_transition_select "Fade" : var_equal "transitionbank" 1 ? video_transition_select "Grid"

You can obviously map more keys to the same variable thus acheiving preset banks.

I haven't tested this, but something along those lines should work.
