Topic: DDJ SX assign effect to button.

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hey,
I'm trying to assign reverb to a button, however, i need the effect select window/browser to jump to the effect so that i can tweak the parameters as soon as I've activated it.
At the moment, I can turn the effect on, but the effect browser will stay on a previously selected effect (See image), and I cannot change the parameters for it.

Not working.

It's just the effect window to the left of the virtual turntable.

Please post the code string that you are currently using.

This is the button for the untouched deck (right deck). I've left it untouched in case I stuffed up the left deck and needed a model;

action_deck 1 ? var_equal '$fx2' 1 ? on & set '$fx2' 0 : off & set '$fx2' 1 : action_deck 2 ? var_equal '$fx2' 2 ? on & set '$fx2' 0 : off & set '$fx2' 2 : action_deck 3 ? var_equal '$fx2' 3 ? on & set '$fx2' 0 : off & set '$fx2' 3 : action_deck 4 ? var_equal '$fx2' 4 ? on & set '$fx2' 0 : off & set '$fx2' 4 : off & set '$fx2' 0

The code I'm using to activate the effect for the left deck follows (borrowed from vdj7);

var '$myshift' ? effect 'flanger' active : effect 'reverb' active

try this:

var '$myshift' ? effect_select 'flanger' & effect 'flanger' active : effect_select 'reverb' & effect 'reverb' active

Basically you need to set the effect slot.
Therefore:
var '$myshift' ? effect_active 1 'flanger' : effect_active 1 'reverb'
