Topic: Stems Pad Page - Page: 2
the fx is loudmax64
 
And as has been said before, you didn't specify that name when setting the slider
stem_pad 'acapella' & effect_active "LoudMax64" off ? effect_active "LoudMax64" on & effect_slider 1 80% & effect slider 2 90% : effect_active "LoudMax64" off

effect_slider 1 80%
Will just set the first slider of the effect selected in slot 1 to 80%, so like this it depends on which effect is selected in slot 1.
 
I misunderstood that post sorry
 
It's not different, I just highlighted the part where you set the sliders but did not specify the effect name
 
OK Im studying more of loco's page he linked...Im trying to understand this but its been 10years and I still just don't get it.
 
Quote :
effect_slider
1st optional slot number
Alternate 1st optional "fx name"
2nd option slider number
3rd optional value.

So
effect_slider "effect_name" 1 80%
for example
 
stem_pad 'acapella' & effect_active "LoudMax64" off ? effect_active "LoudMax64" on & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 1 80% & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 2 90% : effect_active "LoudMax64" off

i tried this earlier and it didn't work.
 
That's real script that should work, if it's not working there's something else wrong.

If something doesn't work explain what happens, make it easy for those you ask, paste the script you've tried.
 
everything works except the sliders do not set as instructed.
 
effect_show_gui "loudmax64" on & wait 3000ms & effect_active "LoudMax64" on & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 1 0% & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 2 0% & wait 3000ms & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 1 80% & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 2 90% & wait 3000ms & effect_active "LoudMax64" off & wait 1000ms & effect_show_gui "loudmax64" off

use that, if it doesn't do as it reads, make a video of it?
 
I just had a mess around here and it seems to be an issue with LoudMax not liking the on/off questioning part of the script. Including the on/off seems to stop LoudMax from responding.

If I just do this:

stem_pad 'acapella' & effect_active "LoudMax64" on & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 1 80% & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 2 90%

That works. LoudMax comes on and the sliders set. Include the off part and it all dies.
 
At this point I think it might be the plug-in... with locos script it does work but it no longer shuts off Loadmax once the Acapella is disengaged.
Groovin that's my original script but it only works on the first deck you activate it on
 
try the padfx method instead
stem_pad 'acapella' & padfx loudmax64 80% 90%
 
Same thing loc it doesnt turn the effect off.
 
you've got something local to you acting weird then.
 
I reckon you'll have to use another maximizer plugin. Loudmax doesn't like being told what to do, it seems.
 
I think I've cracked it:

stem_pad 'acapella' & effect_active 1 "LoudMax64" on ? effect_active 1 "LoudMax64" off : effect_active 1 "LoudMax64" on & effect_slider 1 1 80% & effect_slider 1 2 90%


Basically turning the on/off question around the other way.
 
Only thing I wish is that it didn't take up a FX slot but I just map the fx I usually sit in slot one...but yes that's working.
 
change the "1" as used to designate the slot to "7"
It will still take a slot, but not one you can see
[don't know why you need a slot tbh but you do for some reason]
 
stem_pad 'acapella' & effect_active "LoudMax64" ? effect_active "LoudMax64" off : effect_active "LoudMax64" on & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 1 80% & effect_slider "LoudMax64" 2 90%

Ah it seems effect_active "fxName" off ? doesn't query correctly, I'm guessing on / off modifiers aren't part of the query
