Various session box issues
Hi
I’m trying to add an NI F1 to my setup. I previously had two XoneK2s, but I’m wanting to try out the F1. I’m also updating some settings now that I don’t have to provide scene stop buttons in the session box setup. Or I can provide ones on a different controller if I want. My aim is to use the F1 for transport and device control and the XoneK2 to continue as my track and clip controller.
The first problem I encountered is that when I deleted the values from the scenes and track stop editors, they weren’t all removed from the script. I think the scene stop ones remained. So I couldn’t use those control values for anything else until I manually modified the script and then imported it.
The second problem I encountered is that I can’t set up session boxes in combination. The app complained that I have to set the session boxes in different modes. But when I did that the first box stopped working. My session box navigation controls either had no effect or, those that shared a mode with the second session box moved the first one, but multiple steps rather than the single steps I’d set up.
The third problem is related to the second – after deleting the second session box to try to get the first one working again, the session box was not removed from the script, so it still appeared and the navigation of the first session box still didn’t work.
So how are combination boxes supposed to be set up?
I’m attaching the latest attempt with the K2 and Twister. Various bits have started and stopped working, seemingly randomly. It’s difficult to tell what is changing each time the scripts generate because bits move around even when no changes are made. The script has also behave inconsistently in Ableton. The python generated from this JSON worked, at least for the K2. I put in a previous version and then switched back to this one and the K2 controls no longer worked properly – moving the session box up and down no longer worked and when shifting to mode 2 the session box changed colour, indicating there were 2 boxes when there’d previously only been 1.
