Cycle Button - Translation File Empty Cycle Button - Translation File

Post by pureaddict Thu Apr 25, 2024 10:24 am

Hi @ all, apologies in advance if this has been asked a thousand times.

I have been using the MIDI plugin for some time successfully, but I am trying to set a Cycle Button to cycle 4 options on a plugin in UAD Console.  I have been successfully able to control most options on the device with normal knob controls or simple button presses, but I need to get Cycle Button working.

The problem: 

The secondary app I use to control Console does not recognise my button presses to "Learn" the StreamDeck button I have assigned.


MY Translation File:

<MidiSteps version="1.1">
  <Default send="yes" receive="no" display="" image="" displayonsend="yes" useclosestvalueonreceive="yes"/>
  <StepValues>
    <Step value="0" display="" image=""/>
    <Step value="31" display=""/>
    <Step value="64" display=""/>
    <Step value="120" display=""/>

  </StepValues>
</MidiSteps>

My settings:

Channel: 1
Command: 102
Button Type: Cycle
Cycle File: "As Above"
End Behaviour: Loop
Direction Switch: Never
MIDI Out Port: "Set to an already recognised port in the app I am trying to control"

Any help appreciated, thanks in advance <3

I tried your settings, and they work as intended (i.e., the expected commands are sent).

I can only speculate, but perhaps the "secondary app" requires the value 127 when it should learn a command?  

You can temporarily add a Push button that sends the same command with the value 127 and see if that works. Once the command is learned, you can remove that button.

Your little test opened my eyes to the issue.

I also had to set it as a knob/fader in the UA control app.

Thanks so much for the quick reply and the great software Smile

Is there a way to display text with a "return" between words for each cycle step in the script?

Example:

TYPE
LPF

TYPE
BPF

TYPE
HPF

etc...

The first alternative would case an XML formating error.

As said on the page "...without the quotes..:", so it's

display "wordstringword"
