Controlling a *selected* chain’s volume, pan and sends
I can’t figure out how to control a selected chain’s volume, pan and sends inside a drum rack. I want it to work just like the ease of making a script of selecting a regular track and controlling these parameters. Is this possible?
I tried making a few Reactions that do what you wanted. I tested them with a MIDI Fighter Twister. If you’re using a different controller, you’ll need to check inside the Reaction if the correct MIDI channel and value are assigned (see the included .png).
The chain’s parameters you want to control (volume, panning, sends) are inside the mixer_device of a Chain. In the Reaction I access the mixer_device as follows:
self.song().view.selected_track.view.selected_device.view.selected_chain.mixer_device
So, the mixer_device parameters of the selected Chain of the selected Device of the selected Track will be affected by the changes you make with the assigned MIDI Controls.
I haven’t looked at Sends yet, maybe later.
If you’re having issues with the script or want something done different, feel free to let me know.
