Logic had a global chord track, till version 9

finaly 1 old behavior is back... realy ... who needs a pencil ? u have the hyper editor... note repeat ? why ??? you are so much faster by programming it the way u like... Where is the Chord Track ??? why is there still nothing like VST Expression ? is Scripter able now to write Midi Data ??? possible to quantize the ends of Midi Events ? stuff wich so many people does have requested... yeah cool... Piano roll show names of Drums "just these from Logic" addictive Battery and so on... its useless for it... i wonder if they quit third party plugins someday... most features of logic won't work with it nowadays... little bit angry today... don't know... do i see it wrong ?? features that are useful for ex-garageband users who are not able to read the manual to get all the tricks out of Logic... sorry but that is true. where is the stuff for people who have to work with Orchestra Librarys ? Writing 20 songs in a Row in short time cause of dead lines...??? its not really there... Chord Trigger... where u are not able to put in Progressions... couse u aren't able to Transpose them into different Keys.. argh... its like ... i don't know... i would spend money to them like in logic 7 days... to get the tools that really matters... sorry i am just disappointed at the moment...

thats nice !

You are welcome. i learned C and Objective C. never learned javascript. its the first time for me. java script seems very similar to C. Maybe check out a book store or some Javascript for Dummys (They are realy great books ! ) you just need to get the fundamentals of programming, like how to use "If and else" , variable decloration and so on, how does a function work. They are allmost the same in every programming language... but they have allways an other slang. Sometimes u need some () instead of [] or sometimes u are able to use dots sometimes not. But i think C would be a good start, or a Javascript for Dummy book. if you are into it, and take a look at the different languages, it will be like the difference between American english and UK English.

Thanks for Sharing your Code I use VSL Stuff here by myself. I Modified your code. If u didnt post your code fragment i didnt get the idea to do this Hope that will help you. By the Way would be cool if you share any changes.. // Global Definition for controller X Y for switching in the artikulation row. Feel free to change the number. var x = new ControlChange; var y = new ControlChange; x.number = 12; y.number = 1; // standart Event Handling function HandleMIDI(event) { event.trace(); event.send(); } // For Switching the Articulation (Expression) Every Name in the Plugin Parameter does have an own number // the First is 0, Second 1 , Third 2 and so on. function parameterSwitch(){ if (expression == 0) { x.value = 0; y.value = 0; } if (expression == 1) { x.value = 19; y.value = 0; } if (expression == 2) { x.value = 37; y.value = 0; } if (expression == 3) { x.value = 73; y.value = 0; } if (expression == 10) { x.value = 0; y.value = 127; } if (expression == 11) { x.value = 40; y.value = 127; } if (expression == 12) { x.value = 60; y.value = 127; } } //----------------------------------------- // Define the Names as u Wish. var PluginParameters = [{name:"Keyswitch", type: "menu", valueStrings:["Staccato", "Sustain", "fp", "Legato", "Protamento", "pTrill", "rep", "FastRep,", "Pizz", "SecRow1", "SecRow2", "SecRow3"]}]; var expression = 0; // Now these happens when i change something // First i say the Var expression should get the Value of PluginParameters // then the function parameterSwitch(); should be called. And then send x and y. function ParameterChanged(param, value) { expression = value; parameterSwitch(); x.send(); y.send(); x.trace(); y.trace(); }

good to know that someone else try the same thing

maybe you have an idea of how to make this script better i did not find a solution for writing the data direct into the midi file. may u have an idea how to do that

Okay, For example Load a Instance of Kontakt, Insert an Instrument Bank, and load instruments into this. For examples Legato Strings, Staccati Strings and so on. Then insert the Scripter Plugin and paste the Code into it. Then Assign the Intelligent Automation Controls ("b") to the Scriptor Fader. now u can change the Artikulations via the the new Automation Controll Tool. sorry for my bad english

Just a short Test. U need to use the automation to record these Program Changes. var PluginParameters = [{name:"ProgramChange", defaultValue:3, minValue:0, maxValue:5, numberOfSteps:5, unit:"octaves", type:"lin"}]; function HandleMIDI(event) { event.trace(); event.send(); } function ParameterChanged(param, value) { if(param == 0){ var program =GetParameter("ProgramChange"); var pc = new ProgramChange; pc.number = program; pc.send(); pc.trace(); } }

i found out that you can use the meta score symbol just by using option (alt) click. did you know this ? :/

i understand. i think program changes works very well. for example you can use a touch screen device like an ipod touch to trigger them its very time saving

hey david, didnt you told an another forum post that you use symbols to trigger keyswitches ?

aw okay thats bad news. i allready did a complete environment setup for such things like "ppp , pp , p , mf and so on" with an randomizer per played note in the score, so that there is a little human touch. and a complete setup for ewqlso to trigger the articulations change by using program changes instead of keyswitches. and now the same for the vsl se. i just thought when using the score symbols it would be a faster workflow. now i am at the point where i can trigger these key switches by using meta data... but to write arco and chose the right number in the inspector, it takes much longer then expected... wanna see this environment? maybe you have som tricks for me i can use.

sorry thats not exactly what i ment :/ http://gallery.me.com/stoecklmayer#100078 look at this

anyone ?
