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.

[] showqueue will display the actual queue in the message bar (as well as in the log file)
