2.8 Mode Selector Issues
I have a successfully working Xone K2 Controller/Script combo for various mappings under the pre-installed “mode 1”.
I’m looking to expand to further modes and subsequent mode selection between them.
I have hit a roadblock.
I have the pre-installed mode 1 and mode 2 “enabled” on the “Modes” tab.
I have created my first mode 2 mapping by duplicating the “Device Parameter” I am using for Endless encoder 1 (in mode 1)
Changing this duplicated mapping to mode 2 and to a different “Device parameter number” from it’s mode 1 setting.
I have created 2 “Mode Selectors” and have assigned one to “mode 1 and one to “mode 2”.
Both are set to “scroll”.
Both are assigned to the same Controller input (Endless encoder 5).
Install the script, restart Live try Endless encoder 5 but the Mode selector is not changing anything.
(All Mode 1 mappings still work)
As previously stated, controller is working great for various mappings in mode 1.
“Nothing to display currently” in error log.
Any suggestions appreciated.
The first suggestions are over my head for now.
Sacrificing any knob for Mode Selection is the least ideal option for what I would like to do with this controller, as opposed to an Encoder or buttons.
I’d be totally happy to set up an “Increment/Decrement” button scenario like you describe under reply (2.) but I tried to set this up and unless I’m missing something the fact that each “Mode Selector” under it’s “Select Mode” option, only allows you to select a single, individual mode or an option for “previous mode” but no option for “next mode” has me perplexed.
I’ve watched the videos on “Previous” and “Shift” modes as well and still can’t make this happen.
AM I missing something?
Are you or anyone else you know of available for hire to make custom scripts? By this point I will gladly pay.
Although this is why I purchased CSS, I must simply not have the ” programmers mind” as I’ve spent countless hours and am endlessly frustrated.
I know what i am looking to do and wouldn’t have expected it to be such a difficult under taking.
Thank you for your continued help.
Hey Wim,
Still can’t get the script you sent to work.
I imported your script and expectedly received a few red (routing) errors.
I created 3 modes and assigned each Mode Selector that you created (6 of them) to it’s same exact number in both Fields 1 and 2 of each mode selector..
Does this look correct in the pics?
Red messages are gone, send over to Ableton, fresh restart, and both Buttons 35 and 36 will only launch “Mode 3.
Yes!
Hallelujah, I finally get it!
I just could’t connect the full logic of things until now.
Already added a 4th mode and tested it successfully.
Thanks again for all of your help, Wim!
