    How to switch banks with keyboard

    by dnelson7 » Thu Sep 07, 2023 10:42 pm

    Hello

    I have three Banks...

    Bank-1
    Bank-2
    Bank-3

    How do I tell MM to switch between them?

    For example,
    "onKeyPress-A" turn off Bank-2 and Bank-3 and make Bank-1 visible and play.
    "onKeyPress-B" turn off Bank-1 and Bank-3 and make Bank-2 visible and play.
    "onKeyPress-C" turn off Bank-1 and Bank-2 and make Bank-3 visible and play.

    Seems like there should be an easy way to do this but I can't figure it out

    Help?

    Menu Edit / Edit Keyboard Controls, then click the bank selection combobox and press the corresponding key.
    You can also use "Controls" dialog, press keyboard tab, press the "+" button, select "/cues/Bank-1/select", then you can configure which key (you can press the Learn button and press the key)

    Thanks for the reply.

    I was already able to select banks and toggle automation with keyboard commands.

    The issue is that I can't figure out a way to map multiple controls to one button.

    In my case, I have 5 que schedulers set to automation and 5 banks with different animated visuals.

    Automated Cue Scheduler -1 (cue bank-1)...mapped to button A
    Automated Cue Scheduler -2 (cue bank-2)...mapped to button S
    Automated Cue Scheduler -3 (cue bank-3)...mapped to button D
    Automated Cue Scheduler -4 (cue bank-4)...mapped to button F
    Automated Cue Scheduler -5 (cue bank-5)...mapped to button G

    I want each button to control the the playback of a specific Automated Cue Scheduler and bank, and simultaneously turn off all other Automated Cue Schedulers and banks. Right now, all I can do is toggle automation of the Automated Cue Scheduler on and off and I can select the bank but Automated Cue Schedulers just play over each other?
    To summarize-
    hit button A, start automation for cue scheduler 1 and select bank 1 and turn off automation for all other cue schedulers
    hit button S start automation for cue scheduler 2 and select bank 2 and turn off automation for all other cue schedulers

    same for buttons D, F, & G

    Thoughts?
