=FFW=> Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 hi forum, while reprogramming my mbox NG, i have a situation i am stuck with. i want to have a group of buttons to select banks (which change the parameter assignments of some encoders). now, when i press one of these buttons, i want them to select a certain bank for a subset of encoder assignments. the goal is to have two groups of buttons which: - select a "global" bank when any of the buttons within that group is pressed - each one select a certain bank how would i go about to realise this usecase? thanks for every and any input. cheers!

TK. Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 The simple bank mechanism won't help you to achieve this. Instead, you've to activate/deactivate the events from a run script: http://www.ucapps.de/midibox_ng_manual_ngr.html with the "set_active" command This approach can result into a long list of commands, but it's the most flexible solution...

=FFW=> Posted July 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) hey thorsten, i knew about the set_active command - i already use it. but as it is of now, it is just too slow to handle larger amounts of assignments. my hope was, that maybe there is a solution around this. along the lines of an if/then statement somehow, to always select a assignment for a subgroup of encoders as soon as a bank button within a certain group is pressed.

TK. Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I'm planning to implement some kind of compiler, which translates the .ngr commands into opcodes stored in RAM and executed dramatically faster than today. So, if performance is the only issue, it will be solved sooner or later (but not in the next two months) Best Regards, Thorsten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=FFW=> Posted July 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 hey thorsten, "dramatically" that sounds just perfect :-) im very much looking forward to it. thank you very much for all your time and inspiration! daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
