global variable question

[Layzer2]

can global variables be used in the button values boxes? for example

Off = 0
on = 1 + k0

i hope so!

That would be weird, globals are for SysEx processing.

I’m trying to figure out a way to do the following….

2 buttons… ON, OFF

when button 1 is on, it sends the value 1 to f0 06 06 10 xx F7

when button 1 is off it sends 0

easy enough…

when button 2 is on, it sends the value of 2 to f0 06 06 10 xx F7

when button 2 is off it sends 0

no problems….

heres where im going in circles….

how can i make both buttons send the value of 3 when both are on….
and have button 1 send the values 2 and 3 if toggled when button 2 is on, 0 and 1 if button 2 is off

and have button 2 send values 1 and 3 when toggled if button 1 is on, 0 and 2 if button 1 is off?????

i can easily accomplish this selecting using one button…but this is all in the name of making the controller
function like it’s hardware counterpart…

any ideas?……

Try this for each button (not tested) with their correspondent values.

b = panel:getModulatorByName("Button 2")
b_value = b:getModulatorValue()

if b_value == 1 then [i:2lrfih7j]– if button B is on[/i:2lrfih7j]
if newValue == 0 then [i:2lrfih7j]– if button A is off[/i:2lrfih7j]
m = CtrlrMidiMessage({0xF0, 0x06, 0x06, 0x10, 2, 0xF7})
panel:sendMidiMessageNow(m)
else [i:2lrfih7j]– if button A is on[/i:2lrfih7j]
m = CtrlrMidiMessage({0xF0, 0x06, 0x06, 0x10, 3, 0xF7})
panel:sendMidiMessageNow(m)
end
else [i:2lrfih7j]– if button B is off[/i:2lrfih7j]
if newValue == 0 then [i:2lrfih7j]– if button A is off[/i:2lrfih7j]
m = CtrlrMidiMessage({0xF0, 0x06, 0x06, 0x10, 0, 0xF7})
panel:sendMidiMessageNow(m)
else –[i:2lrfih7j] if button A is on[/i:2lrfih7j]
m = CtrlrMidiMessage({0xF0, 0x06, 0x06, 0x10, 1, 0xF7})
panel:sendMidiMessageNow(m)
end

Thanks for the response Das, plugged in the code u supplied, changed the variables and it would crash….
BUT the good news is…you showed me how to send midi data out directly using sendmidimessagenow….

enabling me to cook up this code, which worked perfectly!!

function buttons ()
p = panel:getModulatorByName("Osc1 Pulse")
pv = p:getModulatorValue()
w = panel:getModulatorByName("Osc1 Wave")
wv = w:getModulatorValue()
send = pv + wv
m = CtrlrMidiMessage({0xF0, 0x06, 0x06, 0x10, send, 0xF7})
panel:sendMidiMessageNow(m)
end

i swear i worked on this one puzzle all day yesterday…
moving on finally!
