Overview

Track or Grid Listener

Warning

This is still a draft!

Introduction

This extension is still under development. This is the page where I document how to use it. In general, there are two different types how you could use it as:

  • GRID Listener: fixed width and height of observed tracks. (like launchpad e.g.)
  • TRACK Listener: adding individual tracks of any order.

This extension will create a configuration file called “Track Clip Listener Setting.txt” in your /user/nativeKONTROL/ClyphX_Pro folder, where all your other ClyphX configuration files are. In this file you can change the default settings when initiating.

Actions:

glinit

This will start the grid listener mode

tclinit

This action will start the track listener mode. This action will be automatically called when you add the first track.

Options:

tcl

Parameters:

  • log: turns on logging
  • extlog: turns on extened logging
  • –version: logs and shows the action version
  • –test: same as –version
  • add: adds a track to the end of the listener grid
  • reload: refreshes the grid manually
  • disconnect: stops the listener, clears the OSC view
  • track follow on / off: turns on or off the track follow mode. you need to hand over a track which is already in the grid. Now it follow the position of the current playing clip in the targeted track.
  • scene follow on / off: turns on or off scene follow mode. whenever a scene is triggered the grid moves accordingly
  • follow offset (int): set an offset to display to the current playing scene. typically you would use 1 to display the scene / clipslot above/before the currently playing one.
  • up / down: move the grid manually up or down
  • scene SEL : moves the grid to the currently selected scene
  • scene “NAME” / (int) this moves the grid to to a specific scene either by name or position

tclfollow

Starts or stops the behaviour if the grid follows a triggered scene or a clip in the follow track

tclclear

Clears all OSC Data (refresh)

tcllog

turns on logging, and writes a log file?

tcltest

? no idea anymore what that does

updateosc

refreshes all OSC data

tcltrigger

action used for the TouchOSC Template to:

  • tcltrigger nrtrack nrclip
  • tcltrigger scene nrscene
  • mode switching: trigger or select [] tcltigger mode trigger or [] tcltigger mode select
  • tcltrigger select mode
  • tcltrigger trigger mode

expxosc

wites a .txt file with all the X-OSC Controls which you then can copy. it is not nescessary, because the next action does this automatically..

writexosc

this will catch the current configuration of the actual grid / track listner and write all x-osc actions into the X-OSC.txt file. It also wil backup your exsisting file just in case.
