Topic: can the timecode signal be used to do commands?

Questo argomento è obsoleto e potrebbe contenere informazioni obsolete o errate.

for this I want to be able to use the bands in timecoded vinyl (which are spaced 1 min apart) to control hot cues. I think it should work as the timecode is absolute telling vdj exactly at what point it is while playing, I want to know if there is anyway to query the timecode position, I think it would work if you mapped it on button and scripted as follows:

timecode_mode_relative ? timecode_mode_smart_relative ? timecode_signal_greater 0ms ? timecode_signal_less 59999ms ? hot_cue 1 : etc...

One thing I just thought of is that this would probably keep hot cueing unless you said "stop ?"

timecode_mode_relative ? timecode_mode_smart_relative ? timecode_signal_greater 10000ms ? timecode_signal_less 59999ms ? stop ? hot_cue 1 : nothing 

timecode_mode_relative ? timecode_mode_smart_relative ? timecode_signal_greater 10000ms ? timecode_signal_less 59999ms ? stop ? hot_cue 1 : timecode_mode_relative ? timecode_mode_smart_relative ? timecode_signal_greater 60000ms ? timecode_signal_less 119999ms ? stop ? hot_cue 2 : timecode_mode_relative ? timecode_mode_smart_relative ? timecode_signal_greater 120000ms ? timecode_signal_less 180000ms ? stop ? hot_cue 3 : nothing


Actually that should work if you can query the timecode's absolute position, as it would only work if the record was not playing so you could needle drop onto a cue, I would also probably set it to only take effect after 10 secs of the signal so you could start the track from the start and set it up "stop ?" for deck 1/2 so vdj doesn't get confused...

Any comments or "solutions" appreciated

Cheers,

Andrew
