This is not an Audio/Video Effect, so it doesnt need to be enabled.

Provides the ability to manage 8 FX Banks with 3 Effects Slots each (total storage of 24 Effects , video or audio)
By default the Banks offer the following effects (but of course they can be changed)
Bank 1 : Echo, Flanger, Phaser
Bank 2 : Reverb, Beat Grid, Distortion
Bank 3 : Backspin, Filter, Noise
Bank 4 : empty
Bank 5 : Boom Auto, Colorize, Spectral (video effects)
Bank 6 : Strobe Auto, Negative, Shake (video effects)
Bank 7 : empty
Bank 8 : empty

How to open and use :
  • Select the FX Banks effect from any FX slot and open it's GUI or use the action effect_show_gui 'FXBanks'



  • Use the arrow buttons to select one of the 8 available Banks

  • Click on the LOAD button to load the Effects from the selected Bank to the deck

  • To save a Bank, simply select the Effects you want the selected Bank to have from the skin and then click on the SAVE button



Alternatively, you may use the FXBanks Pad page to control the Banks http://www.virtualdj.com/plugins/index.html?addonid=80500

Some useful actions (for your controller)

effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 (Selects a Bank. Assign to a rotary knob or fader.)
param_smaller 0 ? effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 -13% : effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 +13% (Selects a Bank. Assign to an endless encoder)

effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 -13% (Selects previous Bank. Assign to a button)
effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 +13% (Selects next Bank.. Assign to a button)

effect_button 'FXBanks' 1 (Loads the selected Bank to the Effects slots of the deck)
effect_button 'FXBanks' 2 (Saves the currently selected FX Slots of a deck to the selected Bank)

or if you want to assign buttons to load/save each bank explicitly :
effect_button 'FXBanks' 3 (Loads Bank 1 to the Effects slots of the deck)
effect_button 'FXBanks' 4 (Loads Bank 2 to the Effects slots of the deck)
........
effect_button 'FXBanks' 10 (Loads Bank 8 to the Effects slots of the deck)

and...

effect_button 'FXBanks' 11 (Saves the currently selected Effects of a deck to Bank 1)
effect_button 'FXBanks' 12 (Saves the currently selected Effects of a deck to Bank 2)
.....
effect_button 'FXBanks' 18 (Saves the currently selected Effects of a deck to Bank 8)

Very nice,
v1.1 could capture and recall fx slider values,

*edit actually better than that, have it cap and recall the effect_active status too*

make it a native effect, and add +/- buttons to the native skin on the 1/3 fx switching panel

have the select next/previous bank buttons query, [example for next] " slider 1 > 87% ? slider 1 0% : slider 1 + 13%"
I always like buttons to cycle [no dead stop] if possible

VDJ already saves the Parameters of the Effect, so if you load the Effect , it will also update the FX sliders. Unless you mean e.g. Save 2 different variations of the Effect, eg. an Echo with 1 beat and on another Bank an Echo with 1/2 beat
That could be handy, but it will "pack" the FX GUI, as i will need to provide all the Sliders and Buttons values of the Effect, as the name will be the same

Something like, not quite like that, I don't know how writing to the ini of your fx works,

are you saying you have to have a visible effect_string_param for all the info you go back to the .ini,
my idea was as you call a bank the fx waits a few hundred milis to let the called fx ini's do their thing and then set the dials as they were captured, that way you can go off on all kinds of weird tangents with fxs knowing, I call bank one and every thing's kosha

I dont have to offer the FX Parameters on the FX GUI of course, i can store them to strings and recall, but the issue is that if you have the same Effect stored in different Banks with different parameters, how will u know which one is which and select , since the Effect name will be the same on both Banks ?

Trying to figure out something. How can i decide which effects will be in bank 1?
For example i want Bank 1 to have:
1) Video Cut 2) Milkdrop 3) Echo
Bank 2: 1) Flanger 2) Echo 3) Brakestart.
Bank 3 etc...

Ok cool! Thanks.
Trying now to figure a cool clean and easy way to scroll through the banks with keayboard shortcuts.
*EDIT: i got it working... Really cool stuff. I can't believe i had it installed but never had the time to check it out;

Question:
I understand that this ->
effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 -13
effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 +13
Works if the deck is a master deck.
What is the script to "set masterdeck" ?
Trying to set 2 buttons on my controller.
Kinda having a blackout

If you dont add any deck X in front of the actions, then the actions will apply to the default deck.
You can toggle/select the default/selected decks using either the TAB button on the keyboard or the A/B buttons on the skin.

Doesnt work for me.
The Effects dropdown does not contain "FX Banks", only the Pads section, and i cannot scroll through the banks there..
Using a fresh download. Missing something?

Nice , i love this addon :)
Is it possible to assign the function select bank AND load (directly), on the same rotary knob?
I tried this: effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 & effect_button 'FXBanks' 1
The load works each time, but the select bank not at every rotation.
Thanks

For a knob (dial) try this..
effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 & effect_button 'FXBanks' 1 on

or this for an endless encoder..
param_smaller 0 ? effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 -13% & effect_button 'FXBanks' 1 on : effect_slider 'FXBanks' 1 +13% & effect_button 'FXBanks' 1 on
