queue actions
This is a bundle of actions. The main idea is to have a flexible “buffer” actions list, which you can load with actions and trigger seperately at a different point in time
The seperate actions are:
[] addtoqueue
or[] atq
[] triggerqueue
or[] trigq
[] showqueue
[] clearqueue
adding actions to the queue
to add any action to the queue you have to put the action in " quotes. e.g.
[] atq " 1 / MUTE "
to use quotes for names in an action list, just use single quotes ’ like this:
[] atq " 'TrackName' / MUTE "
triggering the queue
To trigger the collected actions, use: [] triggerqueue
or short: [] trigq
By default the queue is emptied after it has been triggered.
You can either turn it off permenantely (in the loaded ableton set):
[] triggerqueue autoclear off
which will NOT trigger the list or use
[] triggerqueue noclear
for a one time triggering without clearing.
to turn the auto-clearing back on:
[] triggerqueue autoclear on
which will NOT trigger the list
clearing queue without triggering
use [] clearqueue
to empty the queue without triggering it.
show me what you got
[] showqueue
will display the actual queue in the message bar (as well as in the log file)
