Topic: Master Effect settings resets on every restart
Good day

My issue is with the (Atomix) Echo effect......I use it on both decks and also as a master effect.

My Echo settings are different for the master and decks.

However, every time i restart VDJ the echo settings on each deck are lost, and they both adopt the settings used in the master echo......

Is there a way i can avoid having to customize my echo settings on the decks each time i start the program?
I just want the master, and the decks to retain their individual settings permanently.

If there is any scripting involved etc, i would appreciate the solution.

I use B8553 infinity pro.
Skin is Project X 2021 Pro

Thanks
Kevin

Thanks for the reply Loco

Unfortunately i don't understand your instruction.

I can find ONINIT for keyboard.......but how do i set "deck master and deck all" for the echo, (keep in mind echo settings will be different for master and decks.....)??

Apppreciate your help.
 


-Settings
-Controllers
-Keyboard
-Advanced Editor (Bottom Right)
 
( deck master effect_select "Echo" & effect_slider 1 30% & effect_slider 2 50% & effect_slider 3 0% & effect_slider 4 50% ) & ( deck all effect_select "Echo" & effect_slider 1 50% & effect_slider 2 25% & effect_slider 3 10% & effect_slider 4 100% )



Just change the sliders to where you need them by changing the %

edits and corrections made
after a deck is specified it doesn't need to be specified again while it is the target

Similar with deck all, you have to be even more careful with deck all, the way you did it would have been 1024 commands for a 4 deck rig,
see script school "deck all" topic to understand why.
 
Guys,

Thank you sooo much for the help!!!

That script works perfectly, after i fine tweaked the parameters, it does exactly what i want.

The only additional option i would like is to have the master effect active when i start VDJ.....

Great support here, really appreciate it!
 
then call effect_active on with deck master,
oninit might be something new to you but something as simple as turning an effect on via script you should be able to manage yourself.

Thanks man, I have used onit in the past to reset all gains to zero on startup.....you guys saved me a lot of work trying to figure out the scripting....

I will do some more reading per the scripting.
