Secondary mode or modifier condition for normal functions
Hey there,
First of all, I’m loving the latest updates!
However there’s 1 big wish left on my list.
This is probably possible through a lot of reactions (which I’m no star at) but I would like to request a secondary “mode” condition for pretty much all functions including reactions.
This would probably be something like “if and if” resulting in 2 dropdown menus for modes in the function settings dialog.
This would also mean that there has to be an extra checkbox in the mode creation, just like the option to set a global mode it would be great to see a first/secondary mode checkbox.
An alternative solution would be the possibility to set a modifier value as a condition for a regular function. But this would result in more duplicate functions in a script.
Again I know this should be possible with reactions but it requires a lot more work, and I think this would be a great addition to make building scripts a lot easier and more fun.
Less reactions have to be used and less duplicate functions. It also keeps LED feedback easy, which takes extra actions inside reactions.

You might remember my question about the session box changing in size when theres less tracks available than the session box width.
Your suggestion to use modes as modifiers works great, however it forces me to duplicate a lot of functions 9 times to adjust them to the varying session box sizes (modes) in my script. With 8 faders/buttons width this already becomes a massive script, when every button only has a single function. However to make the buttons have extra a single extra function (or mode as they’re intended) I have to duplicate all functions 9 more times. And as i’m planning to have several buttons have 5 layers of functions I think you can see my problem here.
Most functions would require reactions this way and the script is getting as you might’ve guessed extremely large.
This is the reason I’m requesting this functionality.
My goal is to have 4 behringer bcf2000 work together as a 4×8 motorised fader daw mixer, with EQ8, send return, devices etc. so this would greatly improve my journey haha.
ps. I took the idea for a second mode/modifier from Traktor pro, the second modifier in there allowed many users to fit every function of traktor in a simple controller like an NI X1.
Thanks for your read!
I’ll cross my fingers for this <3
