Send multiple values in a single step

Hey! I've been making great use of the midi plugin for my 2 streamdecks i've repurposed for my live music setup but one thing that i'm trying to do that's not too great is the ability to send multiple CC messages in 1 press. 

I can use a multi-action for this, but i'm assuming because of the way the streamdeck executes the steps, this causes a delay between sending the CCs which is not ideal when livestreaming

I had a thought that it would be cool to have some kind of "execute script" step that would allow me to add in the channel, cc, and value to send all at once

Something like 

Code:

1 10 64 0 // Channel 1, CC 10, value 64, velocity 0
1 11 127 0 // Channel 1, CC 11, value 127, velocity 0

in a free text field.

Cheers and thanks for the great plugin!

Hi,

I know that there are several special cases that the current setup of buttons cannot handle in a good way. I've been looking at adding some kind of script button, but the logic behind it is incredibly complex.

Just sending two consecutive CC commands isn't that complex, but that doesn't solve other situations users have asked for.

I don't know. If I do something, I think it needs to be rather "complete"; otherwise, I will be bombarded by feature requests.

btw: there is a 200ms delay between the steps in a Multi.

Absolutely! I completely understand. Good luck with future development, this plugin has been very useful for my live set

Any one else curious, this helped me remove the default delay between steps 

On macOS you can set the delay between MultiActions to 20ms by executing in the Terminal this line:

Code:

defaults write com.elgato.StreamDeck MultiActionDefaultMSDelayBetweenActions -int 20


On Windows, you can achieve the same by adding a DWORD "MultiActionDefaultMSDelayBetweenActions" with a number value greater or equal to zero in the registry @ HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Elgato Systems GmbH\StreamDeck

Cool, thanks for the info.

@Admin Just installed the update last night and LOVE the script from file option. Now I have all my scripts stored in txt files I can do find and replace on much quicker and easier!

Thank you again for adding this

I had planned to tell you when I released the version since you wouldn't get an automatic update, but I forgot. Sorry.

Yes, the file option was a good addition; the space given to the plugin in the editor is ridiculously small.

It's strange because I did get the automatic update - I thought it wouldn't also so I was a bit surprised, but doesnt matter, gave me a good reason to sit down and redo my macros
